How can I recycle the items in storage when it is full?

How can I recycle the items in storage when it is full?

Sometimes, my storage is full and I have somes other items have just been produced, but I cannot collect them.

Please, we should have an Empty function/ button i game to clear them when needed or just remove some items we don't need anymore.

    Hi, many of us have the same concern as you. Unfortunately there is currently no way to take back something you've put up for sale. Your only options are 1) pay 1 sim cash to delete an item, in which case you lose it and get no money back, or 2) have a friend buy it from you, and then you can buy it back. Hopefully the dev's will put that option in for a future update.

    Same problem.
    If I bought the item with Simcash or real cash I own that item.
    Once I put it to sell I would have the option to stop and get back to my Depot.
    EA is stealing my stuff without my consent.

    Full storage is a challenge, but it is a great motivation to:

    A) sell sell sell. Let go of the stuff you produce by selling it and keep the simoleans circulating. Save your space for things you have to collect for a while, like the items for expansion. It's easy to get in the habit of keeping a few if everything just in case you need it for construction or for a disaster challenge, but it's not worth the storage it takes. Keep cleaning the cupboards. You can always make it or buy it again when you need it.

    B) Keep upgrading your storage capacity. It is worth it.

    C). Buy absolutely everything you need that you can with simoleans, not with cash. That is nearly impossible in the first few levels when you have very little production capability, but once your factories are running regularly, you should almost never require cash for tangibles, other than adding a spot to a store production queue. Keep producing and selling to build up your simoleans, then use simoleans to buy anything you can't produce, like expansion and Vu items, or you just don't want to wait for, using simoleans at the trade HQ.

    A lot of this game I think just requires patience, which I personally find hard sometimes. But if I really want an item I can't seem to get for a while because the production queue is long, or the item isn't popping up for sale, I try to look for a different project to work on in my little sim land for a while. Eventually it comes to me.

    I wish we can expand stoage beyond 350. Those beach expansion items are my current problem. Need to hoard them, need space for other stuff too. Guess I'm a Sim pack rat !!!
  • U  give consent when u push the button, and when u install the game... It is not stealing if u agree.

    Hi all. 


    Since this is a really old thread that hasn't been updated in a few years I'm going to lock it to prevent further necro-posting. 

    If you need some help with a similar issue feel free to create a new thread and we'll take a look. 

    Thanks!
