Assuming you are talking about ways to store and protect your collection of trading cards:
Organizing Your Cards
The first step is to decide how you want to organize your cards. You can do this by sport, by team, or by set. If you have a large collection, you may want to consider organizing it in multiple ways. For example, you might have a section for football cards, and within that section, break it down by teams.
You can also organize your cards by value. This is especially important if you plan on selling your collection at some point. In general, rarer cards will be worth more money than common cards. So if you have a lot of rare cards, you might want to keep them in a separate area from the rest of your collection.
Whatever method(s) you choose to organize your cards, make sure they are stored in such a way that they will not get damaged. This means keeping them away from moisture and sunlight, as well as storing them in protective sleeves or cases.
Sorting Your Cards
Once you have decided how to organize your cards, the next step is actually putting them into those categories. This process is known as “sorting” your cards. Sorting can be time-consuming depending on the size of your collection, but it’s necessary if you want to keep track of what you have and where everything is located.
One sorting method is known as the “pile sort” method. To do this, simply take all of your loosecards and dump them out onto a flat surface (a table or the floor). Then start picking up individual cards and categorizing them based on whatever system you’re using (e.g., sport → team → set). As you go through each card, put it into the appropriate pile until all of thecards are sorted into their respective categories.
