ARC Raiders "Safe to Sell" List: Stop Hoarding and Make Some Cash
That's a nice Bloated Tuna Can you've got. It's also useless. Time to clean out your stash.
If you're anything like me, your ARC Raiders stash is an absolute nightmare of hoarded junk. Every Broken Flashlight and Ruined Accordion feels important. "What if I need this for a quest later?" "What if this is for a high-level craft?"
It's the classic extraction-game curse.
Well, it's time to stop the hoarding. The community has been hard at work compiling a list of items that, as of right now, are not used in any known quest or Workshop upgrade. This is your "safe to sell" list.
⚠️ A CRITICAL WARNING ⚠️
This list is NOT for the Expedition Project.
I repeat: if you are planning on doing the end-game "prestige" wipe, DO NOT follow this list. The Expedition requires a ton of items that are "junk" for normal progression (like Lightbulb, Battery, Sensors, etc.).
This guide is for everyone else who just wants to clear their stash and make some money.
The list is based on the game's loot tables, last updated November 5th, so it's as accurate as we can get. I've split it into two categories: "Crafting Materials" (which you should recycle) and "Misc" (which you should sell for coins).
Crafting Materials (Safe to RECYCLE)
These items don't have any known quest or workshop use. Your best bet is to recycle them for basic materials.

Misc. & Trinkets (Safe to SELL)
These are your classic "vendor trash" items. Their only purpose is to be sold for coins. Don't recycle them; sell them. (And yes, this list excludes the Scrappy items you need, like Cat Bed or Dog Collar.)
| Item | Item | Item |
|---|---|---|
| Bloated Tuna Can | Lance's Mixtape (5th Edition) | Rosary |
| Blown Fuses | Music Album | Silver Teaspoon Set |
| Breathtaking Snow Globe | Music Box | Statuette |
| Coffee Pot | Painted Box | Torn Book |
| Dart Board | Playing Cards | Vase |
| Expired Pasta | Poster of Natural Wonders | Volcanic Rock |
| Fine Wristwatch | Pottery | |
| Red Coral Jewelry |
Now, go clean out your stash. That Breathtaking Snow Globe isn't doing you any good just sitting there.
