this is really annoying, stuff is getting stuck and overlapping each other and there is nowhere to click it to get rid of it, the furniture from the flea market isn’t disappearing after the flea market so the new furniture is overlapping. I have rubbish and bikes all over del sol valley I can’t get rid of and a bike stuck in ravenwood. It’s ruining my game.
i am desperately trying to play a legacy but this is the third time I’ve tried and I get as far as about gen 2 or 3 and I just get so many bugs. Please help 😭😭😭

I'm having this problem, too, since the pre-L&D EP patch (I don't have the L&D EP). In my 8-year-old but very vanilla legacy save, in one neighborhood in Willow Creek, I have 20+ townie bikes stuck at spawn points and along sidewalks/paths, plus stacked collectibles, and simultaneous leaf piles and snow angels all stuck in this neighborhood in the spring/summer seasons. None of these can be interacted with or even incendiaried by my spellcaster sim. I do have a 6-unit apartment in that neighborhood, but it's never had any problems otherwise.
This bug also appears when I load older saves from before the 10/22 patch.
I would very much like this fixed in a way that doesn't permanently ruin my legacy save I've worked so hard on for so many years.

I've managed to clear my complete legacy save (almost 10 years old) with Sims 4 Studio. All this garbage seems to be tansferred to the lot inventory of rental and/or apartment lots. It's hidden and you can only see and delete it by clearing the Zone Object Data via Sims 4 Studio.

Can you please elaborate a little bit of provide a tutorial source or sth? I have sims 4 Studio but I can barely use it properly. :/

@kat-stvrd In Sims 4 Studio under "my projects" you have to open the save game
I followed the tutorial of Scorpio in a German forum here: https://www.simforum.de/index.php?threads/202234/post-5028771
Here you can see English screenshots: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-SAVES-Objects-stuck-when-placed-in-world-after-loading-a-r/m-p/14287339#M307656 thanks to @pessyl92
It's not an easy workaround and it takes some time. After you clean the save game you should not play with any dorm, apartment in San Myshuno/Evergreen Harbor/etc. and residential rental because then again items which can't be deleted will duplicate over and over.
For myself I refuse to play this game in this state. There are also other bugs but this one is not acceptable in my opinion.
