Ingame symbols for different sizes of containers, from left to right: small, medium and large.

Containers are ingame items that can be assembled in the Item Hangar of a station or citadel, placed in a ships cargo hold and some even deployed in space as a way to store and/or sort other items. There are 5 different container types that can be bought on the market, which differ in their functionality and purpose.

Standard Containers

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.

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

Audit Log Containers and Station Containers

You have to wait until three weeks after the last audit log entry to repackage an audit log or station container. A failed attempt to repackage an audit log or station container generates a new audit log entry, which resets the timer.

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
