If you're tired of grinding events or flipping legendary modules, there’s another way to build wealth in Fallout 76 — passive cap income. With the right approach, you can farm certain items that consistently sell well to vendors or other players, generating a steady flow of Fallout 76 Caps. This list focuses on 15 valuable items that are either easy to farm, stackable, or constantly in demand.

Whether you're a seasoned vault dweller or someone just looking to lighten your stash, this guide will give you practical ways to turn trash into treasure. Let’s dive in.

1. Flux (All Types)

High-level players crafting ammo or Power Armor mods constantly need stable flux. If you’re harvesting raw flux in nuke zones and stabilizing it, you’ll never have trouble moving it. These items stack well and command great value in trade.

2. Glowing Blood Packs

Used in crafting Serums and useful in PvP, Glowing Blood Packs are simple to make if you have a blood extractor setup. Farm Glowing Creatures and bottle their worth.

3. Screws

Everyone needs screws — for weapons, armor, crafting benches, and more. Scrap desk fans, toy cars, and typewriters, or just loot Grafton Steel Yard. Screws are always a hot commodity.

4. Adhesive

Get a few crops growing at your CAMP (corn, mutfruit, and tatos) and craft vegetable starch regularly. Selling adhesive directly or using it to repair and sell gear makes for steady profit. A well-set-up farm equals constant cap gain.

5. Ballistic Fiber

Rare but powerful, this crafting component is needed for endgame armor. If you’re exploring military installations like Camp McClintock or Watoga Civic Center, always loot military-grade duct tape.

6. High-Quality Ammo

.45, .308, and Ultracite rounds are always in demand. Craft excess ammo and offload it at your vendor. Ammo weighs little and sells fast — one of the easiest ways to build passive income.

7. Bobbleheads

While not permanent buffs anymore, players still collect Bobbleheads for temporary boosts. They respawn in known locations, so learn the loops and grab them when you can. Many players will trade Fallout 76 Caps for full collections.

8. Nuka-Cola Quantum

This item is valuable for crafting and events. Stash every bottle you find and stock your vending machine. Players often buy them out before doing events like Scorched Earth or Fasnacht.

9. Cranberry Relish

Boosts XP and is relatively easy to make if you’ve got a solid farming setup. Cranberries are easy to collect in the Mire, and you can grow most other ingredients. It’s a consistent seller, especially near double XP events.

10. Plan: Secret Service Armor Mods

If you’ve been grinding Gold Bullion, duplicate plans you already own can sell for high cap value. These are particularly popular with endgame players. Selling the right plan could help you rack up caps quickly.

11. Scorchbeast Guano Pile Items

These drop rare crafting components like Violet Flux and Nuclear Waste. Scorchbeast sites, especially in Cranberry Bog, can be farmed efficiently. The more guano piles, the better your haul.

12. Serums

If you've maxed out the Enclave reputation and have the recipes, crafting and selling serums can make you serious money. Keep your CAMP stocked, and you’ll get repeat buyers.

13. Treasury Notes

While technically not an item for resale, Treasury Notes let you convert event participation into Gold Bullion, which can then be spent on high-value plans or gear. Sell the gear to players for Fallout 76 Caps, or break it down for parts and sell those.

14. Sugar Bombs (Pre-War)

Used for making Brain Bombs — a favorite among high-Intelligence builds. Pre-War variants are especially valuable. Find them in kitchens, diners, or supermarkets. Players will often buy Fallout 76 Items like this for their builds.

15. Legendary Weapons (1-Star and 2-Star)

While not BIS, many budget players still buy cheap legendaries. Farm Daily Ops or events like Eviction Notice and sell the overflow. Even 1-star explosive weapons can earn caps if priced right.

Making caps passively doesn’t mean doing nothing — it means building efficient systems. Farm these items regularly, stock your vending machines, and keep an eye on what’s trending. Smart players buy Fallout 76 Items that save them time — your inventory can be their shortcut.

Stick to a rotation, invest in CAMP storage, and over time, your cap stash will grow with minimal micromanagement. Whether you're saving for secret service gear or just want to flex your wealth, these 15 items will keep your pockets lined and your stash box clear.

Happy farming, and don’t forget to check your vending machine regularly — the caps won’t collect themselves.
