📋 About This Mod
Bepinex client
Bepinex server
If running a dedicated server you will need bepinex installed on the server side. If running local/single-player/local multiplayer it must be installed at the host. Only admin or host can run this command.
You can run "trashscan" to see how many items the cleanup will attempt to delete, then "trashclean" to permanently delete those items. On world save it is non-recoverable. Adding a modifier to "trashscan xm" or "trashclean xm" where x can be any value between 100-200m. I may modify these at some point.
Hotkey is F8 (can be changed in the config file after the 1st run) to run trashclean in a 100m radius of the player running the command.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, just cleanup.
- Tiny download and easy install, perfect for quick fixes.
- Active as of August 2025, so it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 6 endorsements—small user base, so not battle-tested by many.
- No in-game UI or config options mentioned—might be a command-line or hotkey thing.
- Permanent deletion means no undo—accidentally clean up something you needed and it's gone.
For Valheim players who have cluttered bases or worlds with tons of dropped items causing lag or mess. If you're a server admin or builder who wants to keep areas tidy, this is a handy tool. Skip if you prefer mods with fancy menus or if you're not comfortable with BepInEx.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have BepInEx installed and working before adding this DLL.
- Test the cleanup on a small area first to see how it works and avoid accidental deletions.
- If you're on a dedicated server, the mod needs to be installed on the server side to affect the world.
