Take out of container in garage (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

depot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'garage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'take out of container' is the wordplay.
'take out of' becomes 'de' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'container' becomes 'pot' (pot is a kind of container).
'de'+'pot'='DEPOT'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for depot that I've seen before include "Bus garage" , "Toped (anag.)" , "Headquarters - storehouse" , "Storehouse or warehouse" , "Supply base" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
