Private chest

What happen, when i put my items and money to NPC chest? Will it gone?

Give it a try with worthless things, never tried yet.

I know for sure chests remain unlocked after you open them, with all remaining stuff you didnt take.

And what happen when i put on ground, despawn time? Four game days i put something and not despawn but not sure what happen leater. But when map changes like burn starter city can destroy items.

I’ve put my stolen potions on the alchemy room in Rattay and it’s disappear after a few days.

Yeah I’ve dumped things on the ground to come back for and they’re gone within a day. I’m pretty sure I tried to leave some things in a chest and two things happened. If I wanted to take them back out I now had to steal them and they kept the stolen goods mark, an and I left them there for awhile and they disappeared
