11 Storage Crate is a placeable storage container in Windrose. A standard cargo crate, it is the default workhorse of any base or ship hold. It opens a 28-slot inventory window, which any character with edit access to the base can deposit into or withdraw from. It is one of the first Storage Containers you unlock through Base Building.

88 Place the container during base construction, then walk up and interact to open the inventory grid. Drag and drop items between the player inventory and the container slots, or use the standard sort and stack shortcuts. A loose chest can be picked up and re-placed without losing its contents, which makes reorganisation safe.

1010 Attach a Label to mark the chest's intended contents. Labels are purely visual but make a wall of identical chests far easier to navigate, and a dedicated Storage Labels set lets you sort food, alchemy, clothing, and trade goods at a glance.

1212 Decay
1313  
1414 This container decays over time outside Bonfire range. Keep storage placed within the protective radius of a fueled Bonfire, or the structure will start losing health and eventually break, dropping its contents on the ground for any nearby player to scoop up. Inside the radius it holds at full health, so build your storage room near the same Bonfire that protects the rest of the base.

2323 All of the basic storage containers share the standard 28-slot capacity, so the choice between them is mostly about looks and where they fit a build. The fancier chests cost more decorative materials for the same slot count.
