Default moving stuff out to a shed

Due to some work in the house, i'm having to put a lot of books out in the
garden shed for a while. (Not ideal storage solution with U.k., weather i
know).


My idea is to wrap small bundles in a couple of Tescos super market bags to
try to keep the damp out. But Tescos bags (and other supermarket bags as far
as i know) have those tiny holes in them.


Would anyone know of any similar bags available that are without the holes,
preferably with the tie handles?


As far as I'm aware, bin liners don't have holes and are available in a
range of sizes and with tie handles.



Bin liners are so thin though that I'd expect moisture vapour to be
able to pass (slowly) through, and in to the books.

Depending on how long you are expecting to have the books out there,
and how many, it might be worth considering a self storage place
(which will be reliably dry). They aren't that expensive for a few
weeks.
