MineCarry

MineCarry lets you pick up and move vanilla container blocks with their contents preserved.

How it works

Pick up: Sneak (Shift) + Right Click a supported container with an empty main hand. Carry: the container is shown as a marker item in your selected hotbar slot and you get a movement speed penalty while carrying.

Place: Sneak (Shift) + Right Click a block face to place it back down, restoring the BlockState + BlockEntity NBT (inventory included).

Supported blocks

• Chests (including double chests)
• Barrels
• Furnaces and other vanilla Container block entities
• Ender Chest (note: inventory is per-player, vanilla behavior)

Not supported

• Shulker Boxes (intentionally excluded)

Anti-duplication / safety

The carry marker item cannot be dropped. Vanilla placement is blocked so you can’t place infinite empty containers. Pickup/placement cancels vanilla interaction to prevent GUI desync and duplication.
