Large Storage Box — Detailed Guide
Room for 45 items
ARK: Survival Evolved calls this container the 
Large Storage Box, and ARK: Survival Ascended lists it as Large Storage Box & Bookshelf. The ARK Wiki puts its capacity at 45 items. Perishable items kept inside do not get a longer spoil timer.
Engram and materials
The engram opens at level 16 for 9 engram points, and crafting it also requires level 16. It is crafted in the survivor's inventory from:
- 50
Wood (
Fungal Wood also works) - 35
Thatch - 25
Fiber
The wiki gives a crafting time of 5 seconds. A box weighs 4 and up to 100 fit in a stack, so a full stack weighs 400. Boxes also come from loot: 61 crate types can contain one, including Aberration White and Astraeos Blue. Our records list it on 14 maps.
Fitting it into tight spaces
The box is thin compared with its width, which lets players line many of them up in close rows for compact storage. In ASA it fits inside a 1x1 hut; in ASE the hut needed walls 2 high before it would fit.
How much punishment it takes
It is treated as a thatch-tier structure. Non-explosive ranged attacks cannot damage it; anything else can.
