How to remove a container disk and reclaim space with main partition? I used to have a bootcamp partition but somehow while attempting to remove it its changed into a container disk. (don't know how this happened, I didn't explicitly create a container).





diskutil list:

/dev/disk0 (internal):
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER

How can I delete this and merge its space back into the main drive?
Here, I assume the macOS volume that you boot to is Macintosh HD.

The commands below should remove the extra partitions and return the free space back to macOS.

 diskutil erasevolume free none disk0s4 
 diskutil apfs deletecontainer disk0s3
 diskutil erasevolume free none disk0s3
 diskutil apfs resizecontainer disk0s2 0
