The invention is for an instrument container and the method of its use. Instruments for sterilization are placed on a tray spaced above a floor of the container, and the container has a gated exhaust port in a wall and adjacent the floor. In use, the open top container with open exhaust port is placed in a pressure vessel and having an outlet, steam is caused to gravitate down through the instruments to exit through its open exhaust port and thence through the vessel's outlet. When the steam vessel is opened, the gate is closed and latched over the container's exhaust port and a top cover is installed so that the sterilized instruments maybe transported through non-sterile environments without danger of contamination.
