About this Mod
MineCarry
Tired of emptying containers just to move them?
MineCarry lets you pick up and relocate most vanilla containers with everything still inside. Move your storage quickly, safely, and without the mess.
How it works
Pick up:
Sneak (Shift) + Right Click a supported container with an empty main hand.
Carry:
The container is stored as a special marker item in your selected hotbar slot. While carrying it, you will have a movement speed penalty.
Place:
Sneak (Shift) + Right Click on a block face to place it back down, fully restoring its BlockState and BlockEntity NBT (including inventory).
Supported blocks
Chests (including double chests)
Barrels
Furnaces and other vanilla container blocks
Ender Chest (inventory remains per-player, as in vanilla)
Not supported
Shulker Boxes (intentionally excluded for balance and technical reasons)
Anti-duplication / safety
The carry marker item cannot be dropped
Prevents placing infinite empty containers
Overrides vanilla interaction to avoid GUI desync and duplication issues

MineCarry server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is MineCarry compatible with forge?
MineCarry officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with MineCarry – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if MineCarry consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
