That is correct, items can only be located in valid locations, thus you can assume that any parent object is a valid location.
However, not all locations have items located in them, but if that's of no interest to you then I do not see a problem.

hmm I see your point of having an assembled container(i.e. station container) without any items in them.


that would end up with 3 possible ends

1- 1 unassembled container
2- 1 assembled container - nothing inside
3- 1 assembled container - something inside


1 - no search is needed since its unassembled and no name have been provided since unassembled containers cannot be named.
2 & 3 - following logic could be applied:

is it a container(y/n) -> lookup itemID to check if its a container.

If the containerID is on the range of 60m to 61m (not inclusvive) then that is static npc station you should be able to find in the SDE, so no need to query for that name. If it's on the range of 61 million to 64 million that's a player controlled station so the conquerableStationList call should provide you with all the names you need there.
*cough*

The conquerable stations which are in ConquerableStationList with all of the other Outposts. Think of them like Outposts that CCP built and turned over to the players Blink
