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?


Would pedal bin liners be an option? You can get these with tie
handles (although you'd likely need heavy duty ones).

I had a dozen large plastic boxes full of books stuck in a shed for
over a year with no issues with dampness or mustiness but I did place
some sillica gel based cat litter in each of the boxes to absorb any
moisture that did get in. Not a clue if it made any difference but
since I had it going spare it was worth a shot.
