Containers are ingame items that can be assembled in the Item Hangar of a station or citadel, placed in a ships cargo hold or deployed in space as a way to store and/or sort items. There are five different container types that can be bought on the market, which differ in their functionality and purpose.
Standard Container

A standard cargo container, used for common freight. |

Standard containers are comparatively small and used in ships that dont have the capacity of a hauler or 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 mutiple smaller ones 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 assemble and jettinson them. Everybody is then free to scoop the container, even in High-Sec systems. Be advised that the now assembled container is much larger and might not fit back into the cargo hold again, since items can only be repackaged in the main hangar and not in space.
| Container Name | Capacity (m³) | Volume (m³) | Volume (Packaged) (m³) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small Standard Container | 120 | 100 | 10 |
| Medium Standard Container | 390 | 325 | 33 |
| Large Standard Container | 780 | 650 | 65 |
Secure Container & Audit Log Secure Container
| “ |
This medium audit log container is fitted with a password-protected security lock. |

Audit Log Containers use the same sizes and have the same functionality as the standard containers with the additional benefit of being secure, which means the container can be locked and unlocked for other players, secured with a password and deployable in space.

I loot a lot of secure and audit log containers form explorers I explode. For some reason they think It keeps their loot safe or something... It doesn't. The can can drop just like any other item (if it drops, it will contain all items inside, the is no separate drop roll for the contents, this makes it a bit of an all or nothing affair...) once looted, I am now the new owner of the can, and have the option to retrieve the password, set a new one, reprocess the can, etc... |

Can secure containers be probed out? As of Apocrypha, no. Secure containers CANNOT be probed down. |
