I have been roll searching for about a year now. I wanted to know what you guys use to take the coins back in? I have always just filled up ziploc bags, but that can get expensive and they always seem to bust open. I took back $350 worth of change today and the teller tore the ziploc about halfway to the change counter and the change went everywhere! What do you guys use? I would love to hear some easier ways.

Well as a matter of fact just today received a nice white canvas bag that the teller gave me the CWR of dimes in. It's really strong and I think'll use it to transport my coins in now.
Before I used Quaker Oatmeal containers but they only last for like 10 dumps. I also use a large plastic birdfood container that is really strong.

I got one of the plastic deposit bags from the bank. Really strong.

I've always wondered, how do I get a canvas bank bag?

I love my canvas bank bags. Tough as nails and can hold a lot of weight. I believe they can hold more than I can carry without fear of busting open. I also use them to store away my coppers as well.

I get the plastic bank deposit bags. They are very strong too. I can bot 2 boxes worth of coins in each bag and they hold up no proble. and I re-use them several times and they are good as ever.

I use the same rolls they came in. I'm a small time searcher about $30 e/o week.

I search about $3,000 a week in various denominations so I need an easy way to carry them.

My son and I put them into paper rolls after searching each roll, then back in the box we got them in.

My local BofA gives me plastic bank-bags whenever I need them. Free of charge. All they require is that I write my name, account #, and the total amount-of-deposit on the bag.
I usually roll-hunt cents. I normally pick up 2 boxes at a time..and deliver one sealed bag of $50 in trade. I've been doing this for almost 2 years now without any problems.

I use those plastic coffee containers that pass for coffee cans these days. They're big enough to fit a whole box of any denomination, they stack better than bank bags and they have a handle!

Compass Bank gives me all the heavy plastic deposit bags I need. I return them with a deposit slip inside, they ship them off and deposit the money into my account; I do not have to count the change. I have put over $200 in cents and nickels in a bag and they work fine.

Canvas bank bags are the way to go.

For me it was most convenient to bring them back in the same box I got them in but I dont want to come off as wasting their time by bringing the box back so I am using a plastic container. So far I have not returned any coins to the bank that I have hoarded and no longer want.
