I currently buy my medium crickets in batches of 600 , and they come in a bag in box.
I deposit the egg crates in a 35L archive tub and shake the crickets off in the tub.
Then I collect 60 to 80 crickets at a time using a 9V bugblaster vacuum and deposit each group into an old recycled commercial bug tub ( with a handful of repcal adult beardie pellets and a fresh chunk of carrot , these are old tubs I use :
I'll get 9 tubs from a 600 cricket bulk order , and they are stored in the small tubs in a 35L archive tub.
The rubber bands make sure the lids stay put and ensure a nice air gap over the lid to ensure good air circulation , I usually have my tubs 9 to 12 tubs stacked 3 or 4 high in the 35L bug tub.
I could get 16 tubs into the 35L archive box ( and have had that many in it when I had 2 different size feeder crickets ( medium to large , and , 20day old - 1/3 size (for hatchlings )), but ATM there are spare stacked tubs and lids and a tub full of saved bearded dragon pellets from prior cricket tubs ( I don't waste these ==> mealworms and superworms to help feed them and make them more nutritious , and they get mixed with fresh pellets when I top up the pellets the crickets are eating ).
Beauty of the archive box is escaped crickets from the tubs ( sometimes they chew the air vent slits in the lids and escape the tub ) end up running about in the bottom of the archive box , and I haven't had ants invade the archive box ( used to be a problem in summer when I used a spare cardboard box to store my cricket keeper tubs in ) , and I can see at a glance if I need to replace the carrot , and how the crickets are faring.
My usual cricket order is either 600 , or 700 , or 1000 in medium size depending on who I order from , Biosupplies in Sydney (600x per batch), Frog Arcade in Melbourne ( a medium tube = 700 per batch) or from Livefoods in SE QLD the batch is 1000 in medium .
Works well, if some of the crickets arrive sick, you are not likely to loose every single cricket in a cricket pandemic like you might if you use a commercial cricket keeper or keep them all in a single large tub or bin.
Crickets are only smelly if your insect husbandry is poor, if you let the sick ones stay in the tub, or don't remove the dead ones, they rot like prawns do and smell the same , also helps to remove rotten uneaten greens or carrots and keep the cricket diet mainly dry .
I've been doing this for over 10 years now and rarely have mass die offs since I adopted this approach.
I've tried roaches as feeders , we have Woodies here , and they are bloody fast moving little devils and hard to keep confined. IMO crickets are easier to manage.
