Container

A container is a crafted item used for organizational purposes, the storage of smaller items, and the prevention of decay.

Comparison table

Every container has weight, depending on the materials used to make it, and can hold a specific volume of items inside. Some containers will not hold liquids, some are mobile, others are stationary, and some may be carried in your inventory. The following table seeks to list this information for each container found in Wurm.

For additional information on a particular container listed here, including recursive storage info (storing containers inside of other containers), it is advisable to check that container's specific page within the Wikipedia.

• Weight = the total weight of the container without any items inside.
• ¹ = Cannot be dropped
• ² = Some containers have unique restrictions. For example, the armour stand will only hold armour.
• ³ = Is considered "bulk storage" and averages ql of items placed inside.
• Move: B= boat-sailing, D= dragging, I= Inventory, L= loadable, R= ridable, S = stationary

Additional Notes

• To effectively gauge how much of an item a particular container may hold, simply divide that container's volume, given in the chart above, by the volume that a single unit of that item takes up. The resulting number represents how many of that item will then actually fit in the desired container.
