depends on how quickly you need them during the show, some compnays hanf them on hooks, stitching a small loop at the bottom the of the puppet so they can stick thiet hand in a hurry

others put racks with poles on them and put the puppets on thier up right , its all a matter of preference

I like using PVC pipe - the wonder-material. You can buil an inexpensive rack that can be broken down. Also you can configure it for your area and the number of puppets you are using. I prefer the upright storage method as your puppets are less likely to be damaged.

I needed mine really quickly, so, I just had to set them on the floor.

I have hooks and loops for my glove puppets, and have built a shelf with square holes in for in front so I just slot my rod puppets in there (upright). It works really well, I used to dump all mu puppets on the floor, but they used to get in a muddle and also dirty if we were outside.

And changing puppets one handed isn't fun if they're on the floor!
