Fabric is wrapped in plastic on the bolt and stored warehouses for months before getting in the stores. The easiest way to store fabric temporarily is using plastic trash bags with drawstrings. They are easy to move, they take up less room then boxes, and protect from damp. Folded fabric will stay folded better then you think in one too. We use the bags at guild when we are transporting fabric and storing fabric for a while. Many members can carry a bag but not a box. As far as how much fabric I have, it's no one's business and they find that out as soon as they say a word about it. DH said one time not to buy any more fabric, I had enough. He found out my quilting was not his concern and will never be his concern. LOL
