Vertical or Horizontal? (vlemmy.net)

I always see pictures of people's collections with boxes stored vertically on their edge. Looks nice, but when I do this the pieces inside tend to get jumbled around.

What's the general consensus on the best way to arrange boxes on the shelf?

Mostly horizontal, but for games with lots of little pieces (I'm looking at you Wingspan) we put the pieces into little ziplock bags so they don't get jumbled.

This. I use little ziplocks a lot. I have even 3D printed things to keep pieces secure in the box regardless of orientation.
