FAQ
Does mining a White Shulker Box destroy its contents?
No. Breaking a placed shulker box drops it as an item with all stored items still inside, unlike a chest which spills its contents.
Do I need Silk Touch to keep the items?
No. Shulker boxes always retain their inventory when mined, with any tool, no enchantment required.
Can White Shulker Box burn in fire or lava?
No. Shulker boxes are not flammable and will not be destroyed by fire or lava exposure.
Can I change a White Shulker Box to another color?
Yes. Placing it in a crafting grid with a different dye recolors it without harming its contents; washing it in a cauldron removes the dye entirely.
