Largely depends on where/how you live and what compliments your interior design if you care about that (you ought to but take that from a FALfag).
I personally prefer display cabinets with side openings for better views and lighting (even if you're doing LEDs which is a whole can of worms you'll probably mostly be illuminating them with the room's lighting or natural light from the outside) and heavily recommend ones with customiseable height shelves. Try to get ones with smaller edge margins so that your figures are more visible. In my case you can see that the thicker doors obstruct the centre of my wide cabinet and I have to always keep that in mind when positioning my figures.
If you can afford to roomwise get less lanky cabinets. The cheaper ones are quite shaky which will give you a proper heart attack if somebody bumps into them. I speak from experience.
I have a dust problem but as long as the cabinets can be closed with fair enough tolerances (without large openings) then I haven't had any issues with my figures getting affected in the few years I've lived here.
If you have a worry about humidity then look into more glass (which also allows for better visibility as already stated) and/or plastic materials because over time wood (especially the affordable sort like plywood and whatnot) will bloat and weaken. Figures aren't heavy but it just looks ugly. If you're paranoid stick some silicon bags inside and make them look like part of the scenery.
Not sure what you mean by "other garbage". I will say though that avoid direct sunlight. Most figures are handpainted (staring at 70 € base price more or less) and the UV rays damage the vibrancy and overall sheen of the paint.
I also collect knives the pocket sized of which I keep in a display case (as in a carrying case). You can probably do the same with cards and keep them similarly away from sun and moisture.
