If you will not be shipping the equipment and will just be sharing it within the same school, many teachers use Rubbermaid containers or those clear, plastic, stackable shelves. The shoebox size works well and allow you to have one bin for each type of equipment. (One bin for ph probes, one for LabQuests, etc.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This is where Texas Instruments buys their carrying cases.<\/p>\n For calculator cases, contact School Savers<\/a>. They carry a line of cases called Top Rhino.
