Over the years, Minecraft has added many ways to manage your inventory, including a few special items and new blocks! So, today we review all Minecraft chests and storage items.
Chest
The first storage item players make! Chests have 27 slots, or 54 if two are placed side by side.
Trapped Chest
Trapped chests look almost identical to regular chests but produce a redstone signal when opened. This leaves it as the go-to item for pranking fellow players. However, without redstone, it is simply a storage item with 27 slots.
Boat Chest
As its name would suggest, boat chests are a boat and a chest! This nifty combination places a chest in the second seat, allowing for storage on the go.
Minecart Chest
No underground mining network is complete without minecarts! However, in vanilla Minecraft, a regular minecart can’t hold items, so players must add a chest.
Donkey & Lama Chests
Donkeys and lamas may not be as fast as horses, but they can wear chests for transporting goods across the land! Besides, they are always a fun companion to have.
Ender Chest
Ender chests are 27 private slots shared across every ender chest globally. A perfect item for safekeeping valuables in multiplayer!
Shulker Box
Shulker Boxes are 27-slot chests that can store items even when broken. This turns your 27-slot inventory into 729 slots, assuming you have 27 ender chests.
Barrel
Barrels serve as fisherman villager’s job site blocks but are otherwise 27-slot storage devices with no further uses. They look great, though!
Chiseled Bookshelf
Chiseled bookshelves are bookshelves that allow actual books to be placed on them! Even better is that each slot on the shelf creates a redstone signal when a book is added or removed.
Bundles
The final storage item is still experimental but useful for storing multiple limited stacked items within one slot! Bundles can contain three items that stack up to a combined total of 64 blocks.
All Minecraft Chests & Storage Items
Storing items is an essential part of Minecraft, but a part that grows easier with each patch released. Perhaps one day, we will even see the long-requested backpacks that take the place of capes.
