We store our Beyer headsets in 1 gallon ziploc freezer storage bags.
Nothing gets tangled or hung up in the box.  Our typical kit includes
a set of belt packs, and headsets, and a base station, all in one box
that goes out to a show., and depending on the size of the show
we just take more kits.  The "kit" is a pellican 1650 or similar sized case.
The only deviance is the wireless kits have a separate box for the base
station, since it's a larger rack-mounted unit.  We use color coded gaff
tape to keep the radio frequencies matched to the base stations, etc.

We also use the freezer bags for various lengths of XLR cables for the
wired intercoms to include the interconnect cables.
