Business Archives file storage, here you can see racks & racks of boxes

Here are the three basic ways to store files. Business Archives recommends one of the first two methods as most files can be easily identified and can be keyed into our computer system to provide reports and control over your
files. Also, using a date and alpha system or a numbered system will
easily allow you to purge files when they reach your established
retention schedule.

1. By date and alpha range	Example
	1988 Accounts Payable A-M 1988 Accounts Payable N-Z , etc.
2. By numeric range	Example
	0001-0050 0051-0100 , etc.
Or, prefix the range with a year for purge purposes	Example (using 1994)
	940001-940050 940051-940100 , etc.
3. By individual name	Example
	BOX 1 Mary Smith John Ledbetter Susan Kearney	BOX 2 Steve Smith Carol Stevens Patrick Coyle

To best decide the method that suits your needs, ask yourself: "How do I find a file now?"
