Inventory space can be a real challenge on World of Warcraft You are only allowed a certain amount of inventory space, and as you level up you will eventually face the inevitable question of “to keep or not to keep?” A pack rat’s ultimate nightmare.

Jonathan Kenins of Secret Warcraft offers some useful techniques in dealing with inventory problems

The first thing you should do is to take advantage of the slots that are available to you…Bank slots, Bag slots, and character slots. You can create up to 5 characters on each server, so create a low level chracter and put them near their respective auction houses.

Take advantage of the bag slots, buy Netherweave bags which are 16-slot bags for 5g, 6g or 7g each, and equip your characters with them. So that’s instantly a lot of bag space between your characters already! You can also have a look at Traveller’s Backpack, buy them if they’re fairly cheap on your server because these are not soulbound so you can move them around.

Bank slots are a bit more expensive than bag slots, you can buy up to the 25g slot which might be a tad too expensive if you’re new to the game, but it’s definitely going to pay off in the long run when you start making more money.

Most people are happy with that, maximizing their inventory slots with Netherweave Bags as well as buying the bank slots… But if you really, really need more space, then another option is to set up your own banking guild. A lot of people do this, they go around offering people gold to sign their guild charter, I’ve earned quite a bit of cash from these people when I was still new and barely had any cash, so it was a welcome money-making opportunity for me back then, but then I discovered Secret Warcraft and Ive been following Jonathans guides, videos, and podcasts since then.

So these are some creative ways to create more inventory space for you on WoW… Create low level characters, buy bank slots, equip all of your characters with bags, or create your own banking guild.
