Sweep The Moon Canisters: Capacity, Purchases and Upgrades

Last updated:

A larger canister lets you sweep longer before returning to sell Dust. Compare the available containers, choose your next purchase, and learn how to activate Infinite Capacity.

Canister Capacities and Purchase Requirements

The capacity shelf offers five named containers. Buy Sack before Crate, and buy Crate before Barrel.

For Silo Pack, continue through the personal-container purchases. One route goes through a sack, a crate, a barrel and a funnel-shaped upgrade before Silo Pack. In that completed setup, personal capacity reaches 3,500 Dust.

Choose Your Next Capacity Purchase

If your container fills before you finish a cleaning route, prioritize an affordable capacity increase.

  • Pan is a cheap first step: its 50 Dust capacity is five times the unupgraded starting limit of 10.
  • Bucket holds 125 Dust, or 2.5 times Pan's capacity, for $3.50.
  • Sack holds 300 Dust and opens the purchase path to Crate and then Barrel. Choose it when you want more room and are ready to progress along that chain.

Buy a Container or Upgrade Bag Capacity

To buy a larger container, visit the capacity shelf at the base and select one you can afford. For a capacity upgrade instead, press Tab, open Upgrades, and select Bag.

When your container fills, follow the ground arrows to the green SELL area and let the Dust empty before returning to sweep. For more on how unloaded Dust becomes Cash, see the money guide.

Equip and Unequip Infinite Capacity

Buying Infinite Capacity does not equip it automatically. If your container still fills after purchase, activate it at the base:

  1. Find the glowing Infinite Capacity orb at the base.
  2. Interact with the orb to equip it. Your capacity limit changes to ∞.
  3. To remove it, return to the orb and press E when the prompt says UNEQUIP.
Infinite Capacity equipped at the glowing base orb, with the capacity counter showing infinity

Unlimited Storage and Automatic Selling

The permanent Infinite Canister game pass gives you a back canister that never fills, but you still need to empty it at the intake to receive payment. Sell As You Sweep includes the Infinite Canister benefit and pays you automatically as you sweep.
