Trash Item
A small Valheim quality-of-life mod for quickly removing items from the player inventory.
Overview
Trash Item adds a simple delete action for the currently dragged inventory item. When enabled, you can remove an item from your inventory without dragging it to the ground or using a modded inventory cleanup workflow.
This plugin is designed to be lightweight and easy to use in normal gameplay.
Features
- Toggle the plugin on or off from the config panel
- Delete the currently held/dragged inventory item
- Optional in-game message notifications when an item is removed
- Debug logging for troubleshooting
- Hotkey support using the Delete key by default
Installation
- Download the mod DLL.
- Place it into your Valheim BepInEx plugins folder.
- Start the game and load the mod.
- Open the BepInEx config file if you want to adjust settings.
Typical install path:
- Windows: SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins
- Linux: ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Valheim/BepInEx/plugins
Usage
- Open your inventory.
- Press left click to select the item you want to remove.
- Press Delete, or trigger the configured delete action.
- The item will be removed from the player inventory if it is present.
Configuration
The plugin exposes a few general settings in the BepInEx config:
- Enabled: turns the mod on or off
- Debug: enables debug logging
- Item Delete: triggers the delete action
- Show Messages: displays messages after delete attempts
Notes
- The plugin only removes items currently held in the player's inventory.
- It requires the inventory to be visible when the delete action is triggered.
- If no item is selected, the mod will show a message indicating that no item was found.
Disclaimer
This mod is intended for convenience and testing workflows. Use it responsibly and make sure you understand that removing inventory items is permanent within the current session.
Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
