Gives in but leaves container behind, inconsiderately (6)
I believe the answer is:
yields
'gives in' is the definition.
('yield' can be a synonym of 'give in')
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yields that I've seen before include "Surrenders the crops" , "Investment returns" , "Submits" , "Gives way, surrenders" , "Produces or gives in" .)
