Trashman
Trashman (/trashman) is a roaming collection job. Vacuum up trash from around the map, recycle it into materials, and sell them at the buyer. The higher your level, the better materials you unlock.
How It Works
Become a Trashman
Select the job from the F4 menu. It gives you the Trash Collector.
Find Trash Sources
Look around the map for dumpsters, bins, manholes, leaf piles and loose trash.
Collect Trash
Hold right-click to vacuum up trash and fill your collector.
Unload or Bag It
Middle-click near your Recycler or Burner to empty the collector into it. Anywhere else, middle-click drops the trash as a bag you can carry or keep in your inventory.
Recycle
Turn the trash into material blocks at your Recycler.
Sell
Carry the blocks to the Trash Buyer machine and sell them for cash.

| Manholes | Down in the streets |

Now and then a bin turns up a find as you empty it.

Tips for Success
Find where the dumpsters and manholes are. A good route means more money.

Prices move. Sell when the rate is high.
Better materials pay more for the same trash.
