Hmm, reminds me that I have seen very cheap and sturdy "modular" boxes 
a few months ago in the local supermarket. Modular in the sense that 
you could stack the little boxes into one larger box. I think the large 
box even had a handle for carrying it around like a suitcase. The only 
problem was that there would be no room for the knobs of the pots 
when the lid was snapped on.
