I've donated outfits to the Fishing Academy. In Brighton. RoyL was involved with them when he was around.

Long term, if you can throw them in a cardboard or pvc tube you can store them horizontally. The tube will support the entire rod. Otherwise stand them straight up. What you want to avoid is two or so support points with sag in-between.
