I have a box of parts here but I have no bags to put them in, what is a safe way to store them?
Why they aren't in bags to begin with I have no idea.

Ah, that sounds easy enough. Thanks!
Does it have to be cardboard though?
I have lots of clear plastic bins, but if they're no good cardboard is easy enough to come by.
What sort of parts? If they're iCs, they can be stored in antistatic tubes, or stuck into styrofoam covered with aluminum foil. Of course, non-sensitive parts, such as resistors and capacitors can be stored however you'd like. Also, it's very difficult to damage TTL ICs with ESD by casual handling (not impossible, but difficult).
