Struggling to scale the towering trash can in Grounded 2? You’re not alone. Climbing this massive structure is one of the trickiest traversal challenges in the game, but you’ll need to do it to find an O.R.C. Transmitter. In this step-by-step guide, I’ll walk you through exactly how to get on top of the trash can in Grounded 2, what gear to bring, and the precise path to take so you can reach the summit without falling.

Grounded 2 How to Get on Trash Can

The most important item you’ll need before starting is a gas mask. Without one, the stench from the trash will drain your health faster than you can climb. Next, make sure to remove any dandelion wisps from your inventory. These can interfere with your jumps as you’ll be moving from one piece of trash to another, and their presence could cause issues mid-climb. Finally, leave your buggy behind, because its size can cause you to fall during the climb. Don’t worry, it will catch up once you reach the top. If not, you can always summon your buggy in Grounded 2. There are some risky sections where a fall could be fatal. Save your progress at each major step to avoid losing all your hard work, especially if you remove dandelion wisps from your inventory.

Here’s how to get on top of the trash can in Grounded 2:

1. Circle the trash can until you find a long log extending into its side. This is your main way inside.
2. Cross the log and enter the trash can. Turn right and look for a banana that you can climb.
3. At the top of the banana, turn around to find the handle of a plastic silverware piece. Jump across to it and walk to its tip.
4. From the tip, you’ll see a stick suspended in the air. Jump onto it from the silverware and carefully climb upward.
5. Re-enter the trash can and jump onto the crumpled rag.
6. Next, jump to the white takeout container.
7. Climb the container until you spot a rope outside the trash can. Jump onto it and turn right. Follow it to the end, then look up.
8. You’ll see green stickers above. Jump from the rope to the small ledge where the stickers are and then turn left.
9. Move forward to find another piece of plastic silverware that you can climb.
10. At the top, look right. You’ll see the top of the trash can. One final jump stands between you and the summit. Be precise, because you’ll fall all the way down if you miss the jump.
