Fallout – Easily scrap large amounts of gear

fallout-4

I have beaten the game, and am now building settlements. Vendors don't have enough money to buy even a fraction of the gear(weapons, ammunition, armor, mods) I collect on the average building clear, even with buying ammo and fusion cores. I've been scrapping gear by dropping it on the floor, then using settlement mode to dismantle each object, but this is slow and frustrating. I've tried scrapping containers full of gear, but this just puts it in the workshop. Is there a way to scrap large amounts of gear easily, either in vanilla or by a mod?

If you don't mind using the console, you can:

  1. Take the items to a settlement where you haven't built anything yet (or where you won't miss anything that gets scrapped), and drop them on the ground.

  2. Enter and then exit settlement mode.

  3. Open the console and use the scrapall command. NOTE

    From http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_4_console_commands Warning: scrapall Must be used only after entering and exiting the settlement mode of that area - do this every time you use this command or several items in other areas may also be scrapped. Things like doors to other cells, the doors to the basement in The Castle for an example. You will be unable to enter these areas if they are deleted. Be very careful when using this.

All scrappable items within the settlement boundaries will be scrapped and the resulting components stored in the workbench for you to retrieve.
