Storing long tool handles?

Storing long tool handles?

---

I'm just curious at the moment, tried googling on here with no success.
Tool handles, on axes and shovels are just one of those wear items that eventually craps out usually before the tool head is bad so It's always a good thing to have around.
Typically made of hardwood like hickory but there's a chance it could be laying around decades before it's needed so what would be the way to put a handle up for a "prep?" I am thinking a good oiling then a good layer of cling wrap would work well.
