Empty Shulker Nesting is a lightweight quality-of-life mod that allows shulker boxes to be stored inside other shulker boxes — but only when they’re empty.
To prevent inventory abuse, recursion exploits, and accidental item loss, shulker boxes that contain items are completely blocked from being placed inside other shulkers.
✨ Features
- Store empty shulker boxes inside other shulkers
- Prevents nesting shulker boxes that contain items
- Stops infinite storage loops and duplication exploits
- Lightweight & performance-friendly
- Works exactly how you’d expect — no extra GUIs or configs required
📦 Why use this?

Perfect for:
- Survival & SMP servers
- Technical players who want clean storage
- Modpacks that care about balance

- Works with vanilla shulker boxes
- Server-side friendly
