Container from lodge picked up (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

phial

'container' is the definition.
(phial is a kind of container)

'lodge picked up' is the wordplay.
'lodge' becomes 'file' ('file' can be a synonym of 'lodge').
'picked up' shows a homophone (sound like).
'file' sounds like 'PHIAL'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for phial that I've seen before include "Small flask" , "Source of medicine" , "Ampoule" , "Small bottle for potions etc" , "little bottle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
