How to use it

Enter how many items you have, or how many a build needs, and pick the stack size. The calculator shows how many stacks that is and how many shulker boxes, chests and double chests it fills.

To go the other way, open Convert the other way and enter shulker boxes, stacks and loose items to get a total.

Stack sizes

Stack size Examples
64 Most blocks, ingots, food, arrows
16 Ender pearls, snowballs, eggs, signs, empty buckets, banners
1 Tools, weapons, armor, potions, filled buckets, beds, shulker boxes

How much each container holds

Container Slots Items at 64 per stack
Hopper 5 320
Dispenser or dropper 9 576
Chest, barrel, shulker box or ender chest 27 1,728
Player inventory (not counting armor and offhand) 36 2,304
Double chest 54 3,456

Big storage numbers

  • One shulker box full of 64-stacks holds 1,728 items.
  • A double chest full of full shulker boxes holds 93,312 items: 54 boxes × 27 stacks × 64.
  • Shulker boxes can't be put inside other shulker boxes, so a double chest of shulker boxes is the usual unit for really large storage.
