Many of the gel or soft plastic toys can be washed and allowed to dry in a dishwasher before storing. Then one can wrap them in terry cloth such as old hand towels before storing in a bin or bag.
Yes the gel toys may deform, melt or stick to some plastic bags or bins. When storing in a new contatiner check the item a number of times in the first few days to see if that happens.
More often gel toys materials will interact destructively with other gel toys, so check that they can not touch.
Canes can easily be stored in flat cloth or hard sided gun cases or incylendrical fishing rods cases which are availabele at many sporting goods stores and catalogs.
Whips, floggers, quirts and paddles can usually be stored hanging, if you have a safe place to do this.
If you must put multi-fall floggers in a bag together, storing two or three of very different fall sizes together in plastic grocery bags can minimize the tangling we often find after a trip.
Similarly ropes can be bagged together, chains bagged together, and cuffs etc bagged together.
The pint or quart size ziplock bags with the sliding catch usually work well for small itmes like twine, clips, clamps, connectors, and some costume jewelry. A seperate container for different kinds of small items helps keep your goodies organized to prevent loss and make finding them for play easier
