oblivion remastered where to store items
In Oblivion Remastered , the safest ways to store items are permanent‑storage containers that don’t reset or respawn their contents. Below are the main options and how to use them.
Best permanent storage spots
- Your owned homes
Any chest or storage inside a house you purchase (like the Waterfront shack or later “My Imperial House”) is safe; items won’t disappear.
* Buy a home early (e.g., the 2,000‑gold shack in the Imperial City) for a central, reliable stash.
- Jauffre’s chest at Weynon Priory
After delivering the Amulet of Kings to Jauffre, ask him for “Assistance” and he’ll unlock a wooden chest.
* You can store your own gear here, but note this location may become inaccessible later in the main quest.
- Hollowed‑out tree stump in Imperial City
In the Market District, go down the alley to the right of Rindir’s Staffs into a small courtyard; the stump there acts as a permanent storage container.
* Great for quick, free storage near shops and guilds.
- Any container named exactly “Sack”
Any object labeled Sack (no extra words) will not reset its contents, even after 72 in‑game hours.
* There are hundreds of Sacks, so mark your chosen one on the map so you can find it again.
How to actually store items
- Interact with a safe container (chest, stump, or Sack).
- In the UI, select the “Search” option (often mapped to F on PC or the “Search” button on console).
- Move to your inventory on the left, select items, and transfer them into the container’s inventory on the right (or vice versa to retrieve).
