Hand-picked for this exact result — no generic lists.

Match tote depth to shelf depth first — width is the easy part.

Match the depth.
A tote deeper than the shelf is a non-starter; shallower wastes space.
Buy one tote size.
Mixed totes tile badly. One size stacks and lines up.
Label the short end.
You read labels from the aisle, not the top.
Mind the weight.
A 27-gal tote of books can hit 30 kg — keep those low.

One concrete case, with the assumptions spelled out.

Two 68 cm totes per shelf × 2 shelves = 4 totes (with 44 cm to spare).

ƒ(x)per shelf = floor(shelf width ÷ tote length), if tote depth ≤ shelf depth
