Anything dropped on the ground outside of a settlement or placed in inside an insecure container may be picked up by any other player. To avoid this, the following secure storage options are available:

You may choose to store valuables inside [[chests]]. A [[small Small chest]] may be locked with a [[small padlock]] s and a [[large chest]] s may be locked with either a [[large padlock]]or a [[small padlock]], either will work. Once secured with a lock, only the person with the [[key]] may open the chest on Freedom Isles, while on Chaos and the [[Epic Cluster]] a player may use a [[lockpick]] to break into the chest. Both types of chest can be destroyed, and a small chest may be picked up while a large chest can only be loaded into a [[large cart]], [[wagon]], or [[boat]]. Chests that are locked cannot be loaded. Chests are also subject to decaying and must be repaired regularly or they will crumble away when their damage reaches 100. Locked chests may not be accessed by guests on a writ unless they have access to the key that matches the lock on the chest.

[[Bulk storage bin]]s and [[food storage bin]]s may be locked with a large or small padlock. Similarly to large chests, the key is required for others to access the bin after it is locked. It is also recommended to '''right-click''' and '''plant''' a bin to prevent it from being picked up when emptied. Bins are subject to decay and must be repaired regularly. A bin that reaches 100 damage will crumble away. Like chests, an enemy player on Chaos or Epic may pick the lock on a bin.

[[Ships]] may be locked with a [[boat lock]] and [[large cart]]s and [[wagon]]s may be locked with a large or small padlock. A vehicle without a lock can be used, opened, and looted by anyone on any server. On Chaos and the Epic Cluster, the locks may be picked and the vehicles may be claimed by an enemy. You can '''right-click''' on a vehicle and select '''Manage Vehicle''' to change access rights. This allows you to let villagers, friends, or anyone access your vehicle's hold, command the vehicle, modify vehicle permissions, or ride as a passenger. To change the lock, you must have the key activated. '''Right-click''' the vehicle and select '''unlock'''. You do not need the key to use the vehicle on a regular basis. Ships that are moored and carts that are locked may not be dragged by other players, however they are subject to decay and must be repaired. If the damage reaches 100, the vehicle will crumble away.

* ;'''[[bag of keeping]]''': These items and their contents follow you on death. They were handed out as gifts and are now only purchased from other players.* ;'''[[master bag of keeping]]''': Same as a bag of keeping, only larger.;'''[[Personal merchant]]''': Merchants can hold and sell items. Setting an extremely high price can dissuade a player from purchasing that item.
