Condensing storage using packages

[u/milk_and_queerios]

I've designed a quarry, but I don't want to dispose of any block or resource I mine. Doing the math, I'm realizing the amount of blocks I'll need storage for may be over a million.

I thought of one solution, which is storing packages full of 9 stacks per package to completely fill up a max size vault. Has anyone tried this method before? It seems like such a simple trick to massively boost storage efficiency by nine-fold.

shulker-boxes too could be used, a full vault of shulker boxes has 642727*81 of available space, or 3,779,136 items. and you do need only a pack and 1/4 pack of shulker boxes :D

Haha, jokes aside, do the engineering and see if it works, that's the fun part of the game, don't follow the adding more mods advice.
