Chest Item Saver
by k0toshoCat
Chest Item Saver lets players move a chest with its contents still inside, much like a Shulker Box does for items.
What it does
Chest Item Saver lets a player pick up a chest and carry it to a new spot while the items stay inside. Players do not have to empty the chest first, which saves time when rearranging a storage area. The mod is for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.
Key features
Move chests whole
A chest can be relocated with its items kept inside, without emptying it into a Shulker Box first.
Carry items to a new place
Stored items travel with the chest, so a storage area can be reorganized quickly.
