WoW Housing How to Remove Decor
World of Warcraft

Rearranging your house in World of Warcraft is easy once you know how to pick things up properly. The housing editor lets you move or remove any item at any time, but there’s one small bug that can make the process confusing.

Removing Decor

To remove an item, go into Decor Mode from your Housing Dashboard or the in-game housing menu. Hover over the object you want to pick up and look at the control list on the right side of your screen. You’ll see a Remove or Pick Up option listed. Press that key to remove the item from your layout.

Once removed, the decor goes straight back into your House Chest. Nothing gets destroyed or lost, so you can freely move items around or clear whole rooms without penalty.

The R Key Bug

If you can’t remove decor, the issue might be your keybinds. By default, the Remove Decor action uses the R key. If you’ve already bound R to another ability, like an interrupt or mount, the game won’t recognize it inside Decor Mode.

To fix it, open your keybind settings and unbind or reassign the R key to something else. Then re-enter Decor Mode and try removing decor again. The option will work normally once the key is free.

Tips for Editing

  • You can remove or move decor in both Basic and Advanced Modes

  • Advanced Mode also lets you pick up floating or clipped items easily

  • Removing decor never costs gold or materials

  • You can replace any removed piece instantly from your House Chest

Final Blurb

Removing decor in WoW Housing is simple once you get used to the controls. Enter Decor Mode, highlight what you want gone, and hit the remove key to clear it out. If nothing happens, check your R keybind and you’ll be back to redecorating in seconds.
