Nothing fancy here, except maybe for the plastic box the cases are all in. I rummage through the pile and pull out those I want to use for cleaning and reloading. I do use old cartridge boxes when it is practical or switch to the fancy plastic cartridge case boxes too. The plastic partitioned inserts in some of the ammo boxes are quite handy to use for reloading purposes too.
I use the plastic shoe boxes from the dollar store, cheap and stacks well.
I use Crystal Light plastic containers and laundry detergent containers. Nothing good looking.
I use these, they are free at the PO.

Zipper top bags in larger totes that sit on floor. Sharpie marked bags for status of brass, once fired, cleaned and sized, etc.
Well...much of it is in these drawers, clean and separated into baggies...
and the rest is in these plastic see-through jars...
Had to eat a lot of salsa to have this many containers that match.
Still though there's a bucket or two always hanging around the shop that needs processing and putting into place.

Coffee cans here too.

How do I store my brass?
Depends on if it's clean or dirty.
Dirty brass is in large plastic bins.
If it's cleaned, deprimed, tumbled and ready to reload, I like to keep the brass in re-purposed Walmart or Costco wide-mouth plastic jars (that held mixed nuts or snacks), and/or Ziplock bags, that can be sealed to resist oxidation.
I've got thousands of .45ACP, 9mm and .223 shells. And every other type I can find. I used to scavenge the range back when people left their brass by the thousands.
It's a lot slimmer pickings now, with even 9mm around a buck a round.
I used coffee cans for the longest time. I find that I stay better organized when I can see the contents and I went to the box store and found some cheap cereal containers. Hold about 2500 rnds of 9mm each. I use these for fully prepped brass.
Dirty brass goes in a few of those collage dorm style plastic drawer stacks. When the clean brass containers get 1/4 full, its brass cleaning and prep time. I keep all match grade / specialty brass, fully prepped in ziploc bags in a dewalt rolling contractor box.
