Thanks everyone. Carla, your link is great. I'm going to save it and refer back to it after my bulbs are dry.

This is what I came up with for the mean time. I took boxes and built compartments to put each type in. These are some of the glads. I already packed some of the boxes to the garage. Once they are dry I will put some sand over them.

The dalhlias are already in the garage too, but I did pretty much the same with them. I dug them and laid them out to dry for several hours, then put each in their compartments, labeled them and put sand over them.

When it gets cooler in the crawl space and the bulbs are dry, I'll take them down there for the winter.

Sound like this will work?

I would still like to hear from more people as to how you store your bulbs.
