Raft: How To Get Trash Cubes

In Raft, you'll be scavenging for almost everything you need by collecting floating debris from the sea and transforming it into anything you'll need for your adventure. The majority of the time, these made-to-order items are essentially survival aids in the post-apocalyptic seas; they can be anything from sharpened sticks to ward off shark attacks to makeshift breathing devices so you can explore the dark depths. Trash cubes, a new resource that may be created and traded, are introduced with Raft's complete release.

What Are Trash Cubes

They are plainly garbage-made trash cubes. They are, in a less literal sense, a craftable resource that may be traded at any island trading post. They can be traded for a wide variety of items, including titanium ore and uncommon resources like fishing bait. As you may use the bait you can buy at the Trading Posts to catch fish to sell back to the same post, they can be a very helpful way to earn vending machine tokens. Having a lot of trash cubes available will provide you a good starting point for buying the end game products on sale because the rare resources you can buy from the Trading Posts can only be bought once you reach a specific reputation with them, which can be achieved by selling items back to them.

How To Get Trash Cubes

On your Raft, a machine called a recycler can be used to create waste cubes. The Radio Tower's first floor is where you may locate the recycler's blueprint (the same place you meet Tala). Once you have the blueprint, you may start looking for the materials needed to make it. You'll require

• 6 Plastic
• 4 Metal Ingots
• 2 Bolts/Hinges
• 1 Circuit Board

In order to power the device, you'll also need a battery, which may be created using:

• 3 Scrap
• 6 Plastic
• 1 Copper Ingot

You feed the recycler stuff, and it produces other things, just like many of the other stations on your raft. In this instance, the recycler will accept almost anything organic and, after compacting it for a few minutes, spit out a trash cube. When you add an organic object to the recycler, you'll see a visual rise in the amount of trash there. The number of resources the device has available to it will vary depending on what you insert. Putting a stone in the trash can? Not much of an improvement above what it can handle. However, there is a considerable slowdown in the development of metal ore.

You'll have a cause to collect all that trash and recycle thanks to trash cans (not that anyone should need a reason, mind). By purchasing and selling at the Trading Posts, they make it much simpler to accomplish the end-game craftable devices, and you'll feel much better about yourself while doing so.
