In Oblivion Remastered, there are several reliable ways to store items safely so they do not despawn or get lost:
- Jauffre's Chest at Weynon Priory : Early in the game, after returning the Amulet of Kings to Jauffre and asking for assistance, he unlocks a chest next to his desk. This chest can be used for permanent storage until the Priory is destroyed later in the main questline, so it is best used early on
- Purchasing Your Own House : Buying a house in a major city is a guaranteed safe storage option. The cheapest is "My Imperial House" in the Waterfront District of the Imperial City, which costs about 2,000 Gold. After buying the house, you must purchase Home Storage Plans from the Three Brothers Trade Goods vendor to get storage containers inside. This provides a permanent and secure place to store items
- Hollow Tree Stump in the Imperial City Market District : Behind Rindir’s Staffs shop, in a small hidden garden, there is a hollow tree stump that acts as a permanent storage container. Its central location makes it convenient for storing valuable or heavy items you want quick access to
- Sacks : Any container labeled simply "Sack" is safe for permanent storage. These are scattered throughout the game world and can be used if you remember their locations or mark them on your map
- Other Early Locations : The Aleswell Inn north of the Imperial City and the Roxey Inn (after completing the "Zero Visibility" quest) also offer safe storage options
In summary, the best long-term storage is your own house with upgraded storage, but early game players can rely on Jauffre’s chest and the hollow tree stump for safe item storage. Sacks provide additional options but require remembering their locations
