I am a plastic box man myself, just dont leave wet kit in them for too long or you will one day open a box to find a lot of expensive mould.

Get a boot liner from B&Q and throw a couple of old newspapers in the back, these will obsorb moisture in the air and dry out the boot.

Ikea blue shopping sack. Made from heavy duty woven plastic. Stitched on handles. I use one my self and often use it to stand on whilst taking the waders on and off
Also consider plastic storage boxes

I take them off, put talcum powder on them and stick them in a bass bag.

Another vote for the Ikea grab bag, something like 40p a shot.
Stunning value, just send someone else in to buy it.
Makes grown men cry.

I bought the cheapest car I could find in the Central Belt with a full year's tax and MOT just for a fishing car ..... I can toss any amount of wet gear / muddy dogs / fish into it and it dosen't matter a flying fsck if it gets messed up! And I can drive it like I want, without being told to slow down or mind the pothole.

Best 500 quid I ever spent.

So, in answer to the question..... I transport my wet waders in the boot
