When building dies, Items still drop.

[Graves]

I put in both the hold item ability and the item itself that the item cannot be dropped and is not dropped on death. However, when a building carrying them dies, a few seconds later (after decay), the item does drop. Anyway I can change this without resorting to triggers? Thanks.

the item drops because the building can't come back.
unlike heroes, who retain their inventories throughout their many reincarnations, who DO come back, buildings and normal units can't come back. sorry, but you need triggers.
