Quick Inventory Answer
Starting bag is 20 slots (tools don't use slots) — pay 2,000g at Sabrina in Webb of Wonders for the first upgrade to 30 slots, then 20,000g for the second. Home storage is unlimited — patch 1.1.41+ opens House Storage anywhere on your plot (barns, greenhouses) with Quick Transfer to and from your bag; crafting still auto-pulls materials. Chester is your living shipping box — unlock via town hall and sell items overnight. When in doubt, store it, don't sell.
Build order: Start with 20 slots → buy Upgrade I at Sabrina (2,000g) → use unlimited House Storage (plot-wide + Quick Transfer since patch 1.1.41) → get Chester via town hall → organize by lane → save for Upgrade II (20,000g). See sections below.
Storage Tips — Do & Don't
House Storage is the backbone of inventory in Moonlight Peaks — since patch 1.1.41 you can open it anywhere on your plot and Quick Transfer stacks without running home. Here are the key things to get right (and wrong) early on.
| Tip | Do | Don't |
|---|---|---|
| House Storage | Open storage from anywhere on your plot (1.1.41+) — use Quick Transfer to move stacks | Don't run home to stash loot; decorating mode still needs items in your bag first |
| Bag upgrades | Buy Upgrade I (2,000g) at Sabrina early | Don't save for the house first — bag is your bottleneck |
| Chester | Feed surplus crops for overnight sales | Don't use Chester as storage — recall before bed if needed |
| Decorating mode | Pull items from storage into your bag first | Don't enter decorating without what you need — no mid-decoration access |
| First catches | Donate fish and critters to the museum | Don't sell duplicates before the museum has its copy |
| Building materials | Store wood, stone, fiber, and ore in House Storage (plot-wide since 1.1.41) | Don't sell basic materials — you need them for upgrades |
| Bag lanes | Split into staples, potion mats, and gift-test lanes | Don't mix lane items — use the sort button |

🏠 Home Storage & Universal Access
Home storage is effectively unlimited — crafting pulls from storage automatically, so you don't need to carry materials in your bag. Verified (patch 1.1.41 · T1): House Storage opens from anywhere on your plot—including barns and greenhouses—and Quick Transfer moves items to and from storage in both directions (Marvelous USA patch notes, Jul 15). You do not need to run home to stash loot after barn or greenhouse sessions.
How to use Quick Transfer
Verified (T1): Quick Transfer works bidirectionally between your bag and House Storage. Reported (T2): open House Storage from the plot, then use the in-game Quick Transfer prompt in the inventory UI to move a stack — button labels vary by platform; we do not list keybinds here. See Wiki — Controls & UI.
Open House Storage from anywhere on your farm plot — barns, greenhouses, and fields included (patch 1.1.41+; not only the indoor chest)
Use in-game Quick Transfer to deposit or withdraw stacks between your bag and House Storage in both directions
Craft at any station — materials still pull automatically from House Storage
Sort stored items with the sort button when reorganizing lanes
Quick Transfer vs decorating mode
Quick Transfer and plot-wide House Storage apply on the farm — decorating mode still cannot open storage; pull items into your bag before entering decorate mode (see decorating & storage below).

📦 Chester — Your Shipping Box
Chester is your living shipping box — drop goods into Chester to sell them. Unlock via the town hall route, and you can retrieve items before sleeping.

⚖️ What to Keep vs What to Sell
When in doubt, store it — don't sell. First catches of each critter and fish go to the museum. Sell surplus crops and duplicates after donation.
| Keep / Sell | Item Category | What to Do |
|---|---|---|
| Keep | Crafting materials (wood, stone, ore, fiber) | Store in home storage — crafting auto-pulls |
| Keep | Cooking & potion ingredients | Store for recipes — don't burn mats on gifts |
| Keep | Quest items & first-time catches | Museum unlocks need first catches of each critter/fish |
| Keep | Rare / one-time items | When in doubt, store it — don't sell |
| Sell | Surplus crops | Sell extras via Chester — keep one stack for cooking |
| Sell | Common duplicate drops | After museum donation, sell duplicates |
| Sell | Processed goods (when stacked up) | Sell finished products for profit |

📋 How to Organize Your Bag
Split your bag into three lanes: staples, potion ingredients, and gift-test items — with plot-wide House Storage + auto-pull crafting (patch 1.1.41+), bag pressure is lower than early demo reporting suggested.
Staples & Crops
Food and crop rows you actually eat or sell — keep one stack, not mixed with hobby loot.
Farming guide →Potion Ingredients
Herbs and forage reserved for witch recipes — separate from staples so you don't burn crafting mats on gifts.
Potions database →Gift-Test Items
Small harvest rows for testing villager reactions — one item per test, log notes in Gift Tracker.
Gifts guide →Sources: Wiki — Controls & UI · Wiki — Beginner Tips
🗄️ Storage Upgrades & Chests
Home storage is your primary storage — unlimited from the start. Outdoor chests are late-game supplementary for farm-adjacent convenience (e.g., stashing flowers and tools near your fields). There's no traditional chest unlock chain — universal storage replaces it.
💡 Priority tip
Upgrade your bag before your house. Home storage is already unlimited — the bag is your real bottleneck early on.

🎨 Decorating & Storage Access
Decorating mode cannot access storage. You need to place furniture and items into your backpack before entering decorating mode. Plan your decoration layouts in advance — no mid-decoration storage retrieval.
⚠️ Before you decorate
Pull everything you need from storage into your bag first. Once decorating mode is active, you can't open storage to grab more items.
