Guide for all items you can store things in?

There's the two storage chests mentioned above which can store collectible type items. Bookcases which only store books. The toy chests which only store toys. And fridges which only store food items. I believe the storage chests and the bookcases are linked together if you have more than one on a lot not sure about the toy chests or fridges since I've never had more then one on a lot.

I don't care if they share inventory. I just care if they HAVE inventory, and what kind they can have.

I mentioned what they could hold in my post. The chests can hold all the collectible items, the toy chests can hold toys, the bookshelves books and the fridge can hold food items. I'm not going to list every item individually because that would be an absurdly long list to do so with.

Kind of a lot to ask of people to list this all out for you and then you are rude when someone tries to help?

That wasn't rude, that was clarification. It's an interesting question. What items have inventory, regardless of whether they share their inventory with similar items?

Fridges hold prepared food, but can they hold harvestables, and if so what types? Fruit? Veg? Herbs? Fish?
Book cases hold books, but can they hold anything else?
Toy boxes hold toys. Anything else?

If I remember to do so, I might play around next time I'm playing, and find out what can be stored where.

This kind of hostile attribution makes people bring out the ten foot pole. There was nothing rude about what I wrote, but it was rude of you to interpret it that way. Who knows what other neutral information you might process negatively because of something about you, not the other person. Anyway, I also didn't ask people to list this all out for me, again something you interpret as way more cumbersome than was intended (complicate things much?). I asked if people could share a guide with me, as in, preferably a link already put together. If anyone wants to list them out for me, they can, but they don't have to. It most likely won't be you, and that's just fine with me. Just please stop interpreting anything else I write and go judge elsewhere.

@Sineea I can understand how the descriptions of some objects (ex. pack cube, chill box) seem to imply they will store things inside them, but it's misleading, I'm quite sure they don't. I personally think they are just a fun description for Simmers to use their imaginations for what could be inside for deocorating purposes only.

I've found through gameplay the only objects that store anything are refrigerators, bookshelves, toy chests, storage trunks, aquariums, fish bowls, plus a few Get To Work retail display objects that hold items for sale, such as baked goods and platters of food.

I don't have City Living, but I've also heard of one other object called the flea market table that holds objects for that particular event. But it's not really for general storage would be my guess.

If someone finds any other storage objects in the game, I'll happily be proven wrong and very interested to know what it is and what it holds. I personally don't believe there is any such objects though. Hope this helps. Happy Simming! :)

EDIT: The Get to Work mannequins will store up to five outfits, I think, could be more? Perhaps five per clothing category? I've only used them once, so I'm not positive on the number of outfits.

Oh, well it sucks that they hint you can keep things in them but you really can't. There is the Come and Get It Street Store table though, which seems super awesome. You can use it in a residential lot and put whatever you want in them, or so far it seems like you can put most anything in them. And you can put them in your inventory with the stuff still in them, and therefore, you can travel through households with it in your inventory. So you can put a bunch of plants for example in one and give it to a sim who is moving out, and many other things, without having them to be exactly in their inventory, making their inventory really large. And this table takes more than one type of thing, so you're not limited to just one type of item.

When I have a hoarder, especially a scientist/gardener/cloner. I like to have some separate inventories. I wish there were more.
I make use of the lice cold retail freezer, I don't make stores but you can keep a separate inventory of items like reward potions, scientist potions and herbalist concoctions in them and they are kept separate from your fridge. You can put some vegetation but not all so I don't use it for that. Then I'll use the other storage chests for vegetation I don't want my sims to cook with, upgrade parts ect. I'll make use of household inventory for things my sims might not need for awhile but doesn't want to give up... rewards, plant ect.. Then there's the fridge too of course.
Thank you for mentioning the table @Sineea! I hadn't tried to use it.

I didn't take it as rude. I was responding more to the note above mine and so I was not really offering much of a useful answer to the original question anyway. *shrug*

Yeah, it's too bad that the camping thing and the science thing don't have inventories that one can put things in. They would be excellent to store camping stuff and science-related equipment separately. But I did learn something from your post, haha, when you were the one asking a question. First of all, tho, the Street Store Table is still glitched, I think, in the fact that you can't start a Street Sale from it. I didn't see that it was fixed in the latest Patch Notes, but sometimes they forget everything they addressed.

But the way you described using the table, as a just storage item, sounds rather handy. I'm always looking for ways I can transfer things, from one household to another. It's usually passing things on the the kids, yeah, when they move out, as heirlooms, or just some furniture to get a start. I also like to have a separate place for my gardener Sims that do potions to store the ingredients for those somewhere that doesn't clutter up other inventories, too. I'll have to try the Table for this, and thanks for the ideas!
