What does it do?

TrashNO is a lightweight trash chest plugin for Minecraft servers.

Players can place a special trash chest on the ground and right click it to open a virtual 54-slot trash inventory, just like a double chest.
Once the inventory is closed, all items inside are deleted instantly by default.

You can also configure a deletion delay, so items are removed after a custom amount of seconds instead of immediately.

The physical chest is only used as a visual block. The real trash inventory is virtual, which helps prevent common chest and hopper exploit paths.

How it works

1. Give yourself a TrashNO with /trashno give.
2. Place the TrashNO block on the ground.
3. Right click the placed chest.
4. A virtual 54-slot trash inventory opens.
5. Put unwanted items inside.
6. Close the inventory.
7. The items are deleted instantly or after the configured delay.

The chest block itself does not work like a normal chest.
TrashNO cancels the default chest opening and redirects the player to the secure virtual trash inventory.


Crafting Recipe

Default recipe:

This recipe can be enabled or disabled in the config.


Anti-Dupe Protection

TrashNO is designed to avoid common trash/chest exploit paths.

• The placed TrashNO is registered as a special block
• The real chest inventory is not used
• Right click opens a virtual inventory instead
• Hoppers cannot pull items from TrashNO
• Hoppers cannot insert items into TrashNO
• Explosions cannot destroy TrashNO blocks
• Dangerous containers can be blocked inside the trash
• Shift-click and inventory actions are handled safely
• TrashNO blocks are saved in data.yml

This makes the trash system safer than using a normal chest as a trash container.
