Standard containers are comparatively small and used in ships that dont have the capacity of a [[Freighter#T1_Industrials|hauler]] or [[Freighter#Freighters|freighter]] to increase the size of their cargo space. Since standard containers have a higher capacity than volume, pilots can actually gain space by putting them into their ships. Getting multiple smaller one instead of a bigger container is less efficient and thereby standard containers are generally not used to sort or seperate cargo.

Although there is the option to 'Launch for Self' when right-clicking them in the cargo hold of a ship in space, this will simply jettinson them in their assembled state. This does not anchor them and other pilots can scoop the container, though doing so in a High-Sec system will generate a [[Timers#Suspect_Timer|suspect timer]]. Be advised that the now assembled container is much larger and might not fit into the cargo hold again, since items can only be repackaged in a hangar.

It will not despawn on downtime, though, so you have time to pick it up again.
