Moving containers help
So I thought I never tried to move a container/freezer/fridge from a town shop to my base home? How its done? and skills needed are involved ? Want to take home some fancy fridges with glass window filling when items are stored :)

There is a icon menu on the top left side of the screen. The bottom one toggles pickup, place, turn. Something like that. It will then tell you if you can pick it up, what skills you need, and your chances of breaking a piece if that is possible.

If you break a piece, you will not be able to place the object in your base. Those pieces will say 1 of 2, or 2 of 2. You need both to place it.

Ok so I tried on Plants, its 5kg weight and goes into inventory. but when you far from your base in town, how to bring back a container? can it be transfered to car or smth? or its just transfered to inventory with that high weight?

Some vehicles have a big 'trunk' space. You can use that.

Otherwise, your going to hurt getting it back to your base.

Can you load up a chest and then load that intro a truck?

Each of the items you pick-up can either be transfered to bags or a car's many inventories.

Some of the heavier ones (fridge @ 40) have inherent limitations toward specific containers.

However, the bulk of item can be placed almost anywhere while you move them from point B to point A.

Have fun experimenting,
Let us know how it's been.

Sure, you can pick-up a crate or other containers (after they are emptied). Move it around like any other furnure. Like all other furniture, it will need to be placed before it can be used and/or appear.
