I'm pumping three times daily at work and am wondering what other moms use to keep their pump parts in? I keep mine in a ziplock bag and clean with the medela cleaning wipes between pumps, then actually wash and sterilize when I get home. So I'm using a ziplock everyday which is crazy wasteful! But I can't reuse them since they get moisture in from the milk drops stuck in the parts and from the wipes. Is there a reusable bag or other ideas that work well for you? Suggestions to not use so much wasteful plastic?? Thanks!

I also didn't clean my parts in between pump sessions since it stayed cold

Before having another I'll definitely look into a dry bag or hard-sided lunch box that can be washed every night and won't leak milk that drips off of the pump parts.
Thanks everyone for the input!
