After you find the Tainted Corpse Samples in the Army Depot, Killing Floor 3 sends you back to this area for a new mission called Containment Measures. This mission triggers right after the Sample Analysis mission in the R&D lab, where the scan revealed some disturbing truths. While you can’t reverse the outbreak, it's not too late to contain the unfolding disaster.
There are two main objectives in the Containment Measures mission: burn tainted corpses and scan shipping containers. This guide covers a complete walkthrough of the Containment Measures Mission to help you complete it and progress in Killing Floor 3.

Search the Area and Burn Tainted Corpses
For the first objective in the Containment Measures, you need to search the Army Depot area and find at least five tainted corpses to burn. The exact locations can change slightly with each run due to spawn variations, but you can usually find at least five tainted corpses in a single match. Here are some spots where you’re more likely to find a corpse:
- One is near the wreckage spawn point, off to the right.
- Another is to the left of the derailed train.
- There is one next to the train wreck near a locked armored box.
- There’s also one near the garage spawn point, just to the right by a gate with a scorched tank.
- If you continue past that gate toward the warehouse, you can find one or two more corpses.
- There is one next to a blast door labeled “B”.
Burn five tainted corpses and survive the waves of Zeds to trigger the next main objective: scanning three marked containers deeper inside the warehouse.
While you only need to find and burn five corpses, plenty are scattered across the map, so it shouldn’t take much effort to spot them.
Scan Shipping Containers in the Main Building Interior
Next, you’ll need to scan three active shipping containers in the main building. This is a lot easier to do when you’re not being swarmed by Zeds in Killing Floor 3. These shipping containers can help you discover the outbreak’s origins.
Two of the containers are fairly close together, while the third will require a bit of backtracking.
- The first one is on your right as you head up the ramp, just past the large fan.
- The second sits on an elevated platform in the main shipping bay.
- The third is located on the ground floor near the inspection room.
As soon as you scan the third container, you’ll need to take down the Queen Crawler and clear the remaining waves of Zeds to complete the Containment Measures mission.
