I have been storing my Big Buddy in its original box for years now, but the box has reached the end of its life and I thought I would get a Rubbermaid tote or similar to put it in, but none of the ones I can find are big enough (specifically tall enough), unless the tote is about 2-3 times as big as required, but then what do I store in the tote with it? First world problem, I know, but if someone has a slick solution that I'm not thinking of, I would love to hear it. I looked at the brand name bags they sell, but they look cheap and would probably not last any longer than another cardboard box.
 
I put mine in a tote that has kitchen/cooking stuff along with things like hooks for tent poles, etc. Hasn't failed yet. If you want a dedicated tote, then get one that will carry the larger tank hose and a few spare 1 pound cylinders.

Those 5 pound cylinders are pretty sweet if a guys wanted some juice and a smaller tote
 
I have the Scheels branded bags and they are just plain awesome (I think they were $20). They carry 2 extra 1 pound cylinders and have a pocket for a couple of lighters. They zip up to "seal" the heater inside so mice cannot get in there.

Mice wouldn't go in a heater and build a nest, right? No way. Well guess why I bought the bags???? My dad had a heater in his deer stand. He wasn't too happy about it.
