If you can put plastic bags around the items, and put some

For that matter, Tupperware tubs work great too. I sorta forgot to get
one tub of yard sale stuff back in the shed last year. It spent the
whole winter under the deck with half an inch of water trapped in the
lid. Nothing inside rusted, and nothing had been treated in any way to
prevent rust. So long as stuff goes in dry and it's not humid, tubs with
halfway decent sealing should provide good protection.
