Cargo containers come in 5 different sizes. Most are slightly bigger on the inside than on the outside and thus can be used to increase cargo space on a ship.

Sophomore O'b Haru Sen (( ._.)) dutifully working towards eventual graduation... (-_o)
I recently started to do minor edits in the wiki, planning to do larger ones as soon as I feel competent enough. If I am doing anything wrong or badly, please let me know, I have a robust ego :)
todo
- create Containers page
done
- check skill attributes after Odyssey 1.1 skill tree changes and edit several pages: Messing with your Head, Skills and Learning
- add details to Killboard
- add MTU issues after Rubicon 1.0 and delete them again after 1.1
Containers
Introduction
Containers in EVE come in a number of variations: freight and station containers, with and without password protection and audit logging. Most can be jettisoned from your ship but also anchored in space. They can be used to sort your loot, as in-space advertisement, for mining, as a supply depot, for cargo space increase and more.
This page is heavily based on [url]http://www.eve-wiki.net/index.php?title=Cargo_Containers[/url], but covers the status quo as of Rubicon 1.3 (March 2014).
Container Types
Cargo containers can be stored in stations and ships, jettisoned into space, anchored in space and eventually scooped up again. They can be distinguished into 3 types:
| Category | password protection | audit log |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Container | no | no |
| Secure Container | yes | no |
| Audit Log Secure Container | yes | yes |
The password protection uses two passwords, one to access the container at all and a second one that is required to reconfigure it. Password protection also depends on your personal and corporation security settings.
Size
Cargo containers come in 5 different sizes. Most are slightly bigger on the inside than on the outside and thus can be used to increase cargo space on a ship. Stacking containers is however not possible.
| Size | outer Volume | inner Volume | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small Container | 100 m3 | 120 m3 | |
| Medium Container | 325 m3 | 390 m3 | |
| Large Container | 650 m3 | 780 m3 | |
| Huge Container | 1 500 m3 | 1 950 m3 | |
| Giant Container | 3 000 m3 | 3 900 m3 | fits in some T1 industrials |
| Freight Container | 120 000 m3 | 120 000 m3 | fits in a Freighter |
| Station Container | 1 000 000 m3 | 1 000 000 m3 | does not fit in any ship |
| Station Vault | 10 000 000 m3 | 10 000 000 m3 | does not fit in any ship |
| Station Warehouse | 100 000 000 m3 | 100 000 000 m3 | does not fit in any ship |
Price and Seeding
Anchoring
A container that is jettisoned from a ship can be scooped up by anybody even if it is password protected. If you have the Anchoring skill and are in a system with a security status of 0.7 or less, you can also "Launch for Self" or "Launch for Corp" instead of "Jettison" and this will anchor the container.Anchoring will take a little time. You also need to set a password after launching it or anybody will be able to access it. The password can only be changed by repackaging the container at a station. Red light/green light.
Mobile Tractor Unit and Personal Depot
The Mobile Tractor Unit (MTU) and Personal Depot are not considered containers, however they share some of the game mechanics and overlap in practical use.
