How to store large # potatoes over winter?

We have been blessed with a big amount of potatoes, I do not have a root cellar but do have an unheated basement. I was thinking of storing them down stairs but I don't know what to store them in? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

No it doesn't freeze, gets cold, but definitely no freezing. We have plenty wood laying @ to build a storage box., I will store in cardboard until we get the wood one built later this weekend. Thanks!

"What is your secret for growing potatoes"

My secret is not growing them myself :D . We live in Northern Maine and this is potato country, we were able to gather potatoes from a local farmer.

Thanks for the ideas everyone, I apreciate it!
