I'm not sure this is an option for everyone, but this is a big company and my solution to things that are absolutely essential and MUST be kept for 100 years (aka "My Precious, Precious Junk") is to box them up and send them to an archive firm.  My monthly fee for storing about 100 boxes is roughly $16 and it's worth it to have the stuff out from under my feet (or stuffed in banks of file cabinets).  Also, you can specify when something is to be destroyed or ask to have it kept indefinitely.  I find that many records which were considered essential by one boss are often considered trash by the next boss.  If you should require the papers, the archive company can retrieve the box and have it back to you, usually no longer than overnight.  Strange though, in all the years I have been working (and I hate to admit how long it has been), I have NEVER needed to retrieve anything!
