Is There a Easy Way to Put Thing in Inventory in Sims 4

If your game is bogged down by too much household or personal inventory, here are several ways to delete &/or sell it.

Sell Your Sims' Personal Inventory

There are now single and multi select sell options…

Sort Your Sim's Personal Inventory

Your Sim's personal inventory now has sort options, item filters, favorites, collection sorting and tracking, and more!

Sell Household Inventory

Too Much in Your Inventory?

If your Sim has a large household inventory or personal inventory, there are several helpful things you may want to be aware of:

  • Personal Inventory can be sold, and in a much more efficient manner than in the past. (see above)
  • It's possible to purge the personal inventory (see the section below), but you will not make any simoleons (money) doing so.
  • You are not able to purge the household inventory.
  • If you own the Eco Lifestyle Expansion Pack your Sim will have the option of recycling many of the items from their household and personal inventory using the Guntdach Home Recycler. This will reduce the items to "Bits & Pieces", which can be used to craft other items. This can be done as a group selection, which is quite handy if you have a lot of items.
  • Do you have high bills?
    – A huge inventory of produce can equal huge bills!

    I have noticed that a huge inventory of valuable harvestables that were in both the personal inventories and the household inventory gave one of my Sim households a HUGE household bill. I about fell off my chair when their household bills came due at over $65,000! It turned out that this was mainly caused by the stockpile of valuable harvestables in both the personal inventories and the household inventory. It took me at least two hours to sell all of their produce, but that was the issue! Their next bills were reasonable… and after I sold all of the produce, they were millionaires!!!

How can I avoid a huge inventory?

Stuck Inventory Items

Sometimes items are stuck in personal or household inventory. 'Stuck' meaning that you are unable delete or sell them in the normal way. I have found that sometimes items can get 'buggy' and interfere with my ability to sell items under them in the stack. Following are some workarounds that I've tried and liked:

  • Reset the object.
  • In some situations I've experimented with the 'Set as Head' cheat.
  • In the case of certain small items stuck in a stack in the Sim's personal inventory, I've also had success opening the stack, going to the items that are 'stuck', then for each one in live mode tell the Sim to 'place in world'. The Sim should then lay the item down in front of them on the ground. Then you can drag it to sell to delete it… but don't grab and hit the delete button or it will just go back in to inventory.
  • If items are stuck in the Sims' personal inventory, you can try purging the inventory. Please remember, though, that when you do this all of the items will be deleted and your Sim will not receive any simoleons (money) for them. So… I would recommend that you first remove any items that are valuable and not stuck from the Sim's inventory. Either move them to the household inventory, another Sim's personal inventory, or onto the ground or a storage container on their lot. Where you can lay/store/move them will vary depending on what the item is.
    Then…
