Managing your inventory efficiently in Borderlands 4 is crucial for maximizing cash flow and freeing up space. With loot accumulating rapidly, mastering item sales ensures you’ll always have room for valuable gear and funds for upgrades. Here’s a breakdown of all selling methods:
Selling via Vending Machines
Vending machines—found in safe zones, towns, and checkpoints—are your go-to for offloading items. Follow these steps:
-
Interact with a vending machine.
-
Navigate to the Sell tab.
-
Select unwanted gear from your backpack.
-
Confirm the sale (X/A/left-click).
These machines purchase items instantly, making them ideal for post-mission inventory cleanouts.
Bulk Selling Junk Items
Streamline sales by marking items as junk before visiting a vending machine:

Use the “Sell All Junk” option at vending machines.
Marking junk on pickup helps maintain an organized inventory for better loot prioritization.
