Use Game Trayz Y-Trayz with custom lids to sort Last Light player pieces and resource canisters, then pack everything back into the base box with a repeatable routine.
Quick answer
Sort Last Light player pieces into the six Y-Trayz, seat the custom lids, and place the lidded trays back into the base game box. Use one set of six for the base game; a second set is needed to store more components.
Why the custom lids change your storage routine
Standard Y-Trayz are a universal organization system, but the Last Light version adds custom lids made for this game. Those lids let you carry a loaded tray to the table without pieces sliding out, which is the main reason to build your storage around the trays instead of around loose bags.
The trade-off is that lidded trays take up a little more vertical space than open trays or baggies. Plan the box layout around the lids rather than forcing them into gaps that were sized for flat components.
When one set of six is not enough
One set of six Y-Trayz is required to store the base game, and a second set of six is needed for additional components. If you add expansions or extra tokens later, decide early whether those pieces belong in the base box or in a separate storage solution, because overfilling the main box makes the lids harder to seat.
Step-by-step Last Light storage routine
- Empty the box and group components: Tip the base game box out onto a clean table and separate player pieces, global pieces, and resource canisters into three groups. Common mistake: mixing canisters into player piles, which makes them hard to find when the lids go on. Count the canisters before sorting so none are left loose in the box.
- Assign trays to players and global pieces: Use individual Y-Trayz for each player's pieces and reserve the remaining trays for global pieces and resource canisters. Checkpoint: every tray should hold one clear category, not a mixture.
- Seat the custom lids firmly: Press each custom lid down until it sits flush. Common mistake: leaving a lid half-seated, which lets small pieces escape when you lift the tray. Lift each tray an inch over the table to confirm the lid holds before packing.
- Test-fit the lidded trays in the box: Place the six lidded trays into the base game box and close the lid. If the box lid lifts or bulges, re-stack the trays rather than forcing the lid down.
- Store the box upright or flat consistently: Choose one orientation for storage and keep it consistent between sessions. Common mistake: switching between upright and flat storage, which shifts loose pieces and undoes your sorting. If you store upright, confirm the lids stay seated after the first trip.
