Have you checked the first page of the Art Restoration, Art Insurance, Framing Advice board?
See for example the thread titled Help inexpensive way to store larger A0 prints:
urbanartassociation.com/thread/106279/help-inexpensive-store-larger-prints
There's also a broader thread titled Storing of prints:
urbanartassociation.com/thread/39237/storing-prints
It includes a post I wrote regarding bigger works: urbanartassociation.com/post/1590991/thread
__________
In case you have the budget and space for something more permanent and professional, look online for extra-large plan chests.
[Alternative search terms: "plan drawer"; "plan cabinet"; "plan file"; "flat file drawer"; "flat file cabinet"; "flat file drawer cabinet"; "map cabinet"; "horizontal storage drawer".]
Very few retailers offer sizes greater than A0 (1189 x 841 mm; 46.8 x 33.1 inches), but they do exist. The web page for the first link below states they sell plan chests for items up to 2.5 metres wide and 1.6 metres deep (approx. 98.4 x 63 inches):

A1, A0 Portfolio and Sleeves, by mrizzle on Aug 13, 2020 11:14:31 GMT 1, Didnโt want to start a new thread about this as there are numerous in the subject already but Iโm looking for a short term storage solution for A0 sized prints ahead of framing. I have a number of prints of various sizes bight over the last few months which I am planning to frame over the next several months (Sept to Dec/Jan) and I think Iโm best to remove them from their tubes during these intervening months. If Iโm mistaken then please just say. I know long-term storage in their packing tubes but Iโm less certain about keeping them in tubes for a period of 6 months or less.
Iโve read a lot about Selwyn folders/sleeves and I know that these are high quality but I need a few of varying sizes and for those A1 size or smaller then I will probably just pick up archival quality sleeves from Hobbycraft. I really only require 1-2 A0 sized ones for my Mr Jago and Nick Smith prints and was looking at perhaps ordering one of these for them with some archival quality board to separate them in the folder. Has anyone used them or able to pass comment if these seem ok? I donโt want or need to order more than a couple of these sizes and so donโt see the Selwyn ones being a viable option.

If anyone has another UK alternative then please just let me know. Thanks for reading and for any advice you can offer!

A1, A0 Portfolio and Sleeves, by Judge Fudge on Oct 26, 2020 14:19:02 GMT 1, Grateful for any advice as to best storage portfolio to buy (in UK) that can handle Banksy Bristol posters size items. Too much stored in tubes and need to get out and flattened ASAP ideally - anything in particular I need to be watching out for when I purchase? Thanks

I think A1 size should be large enough to hold the posters you are referring to.

A1, A0 Portfolio and Sleeves, by ursa on Nov 18, 2020 16:04:47 GMT 1, Can confirm. I have both of these. Baroque portfolio arrived: great. Inside each sleeve is a tissue paper. How to put the print in? Is it correct to put the printed side face down on the tissue paper? You can't see the print then, but I guess this is how it is stored best. Grateful for answers. Take care

When you say tissue paper, do you mean the black sheet? I have it so I can see the prints.

A1, A0 Portfolio and Sleeves, by ecomwizard on Nov 18, 2020 20:58:19 GMT 1, The "tissue paper" is the black acid free paper to help preserve the print. Just put your print on top so you can see it. You can store a print on each side of the black paper, all your prints should look like a book.
Like collecting hockey cards, right?

A1, A0 Portfolio and Sleeves, by French Art Lover on Mar 10, 2021 9:54:57 GMT 1, Portfolio baroque ordered in December, still not arrived in France. They're telling me it won't be delivered before end of march. They repushed they delivery date about 4 times already. They keep telling me literally 'it is not our fault it is the pandemic'. And they wont do any commercial gesture. Not very commercial ether professional in my opinion. It better be fucking great. It is kind of crazy knowing that the price of the delivery was nearly the same as the portfolio itself

When I ordered one last year it was 30$ for shipping. I need a second one but now it's 70$ because they have to ship with DHL.
So ill wait, or order one at Vault displays.
