Borderlands 4 Lost Loot Machine Guide
Borderlands 4

Borderlands 4 has a mountain of loot to juggle, and it’s easy to miss drops in the chaos of a firefight. That’s where the Lost Loot Machine comes in. Instead of worrying about guns vanishing in the dirt, you can use this system to recover gear you didn’t pick up. The new version in Borderlands 4 works much better than in past games.

How the Lost Loot Machine Works

The Lost Loot Machine stores weapons, shields, and gear you left behind in the world. If you don’t pick something up, the machine keeps it safe. When you return to a hub area or a Safehouse with a machine, you can open the menu and see every item that was recovered.

In Borderlands 4, this system no longer makes you stand in front of a dispenser spitting out random gear. Instead, it works through a clear menu screen. You can look at every missed drop, decide what’s worth keeping, and send the rest to the trash. If you want everything at once, there’s also a “take all” button.

Where to Find the Lost Loot Machine

The Lost Loot Machine is available in Safehouses and major Faction Towns. Each time you fast travel back, check the machine before heading out again. This keeps your inventory clean while making sure you don’t miss out on high-rarity gear.

The machine will not store junk-level items or basic whites and greens. It prioritizes rare and higher drops, saving you the trouble of sifting through worthless guns.

Tips for Using the Lost Loot Machine

Use the “take all” option if you just want to dump everything into your inventory and sort later. This is especially handy after farming bosses or running long missions.

If you’re running out of space, invest in SDU upgrades for inventory and bank storage. The machine can only hold a limited number of items at once, so if it’s full, older loot will be replaced by new drops.

Combine the Lost Loot Machine with the auto-sell junk system to streamline your farming loop. Grab everything, mark trash as junk, and sell at the next vending machine.

Final Blurb

The Lost Loot Machine in Borderlands 4 is one of the best quality-of-life upgrades in the series. It saves rare gear you miss, organizes it in a simple menu, and lets you claim everything in one click.

Check it often and you’ll never stress over missing loot again.
