U4GM What Are the Best Fallout 76 Cloth Farm Routes

[Garcia]

Farm Cloth fast in Fallout 76: hit the Summersville house for 250+ from burnt books, then loop Charleston Capitol and Fort Defiance, scrap, server hop, and stockpile bulk cloth for repairs and CAMP builds.

Cloth always seems to vanish right when you're mid-build or staring at a broken chest piece you swear you repaired yesterday. You can grab it off random junk, sure, but that's slow and it'll drive you mad. If you want a reliable loop, treat cloth like any other resource: pick a route, keep it tight, and bank big stacks in one go. And if you're the type who'd rather spend your playtime actually playing, not grinding, it's worth knowing that U4GM is a place players use when they're looking to buy game currency or items without turning every session into a scavenger chore.

Summersville's Book House Loop

The fastest cloth run is still the Summersville "book house" trick, and it's popular for a reason. Fast travel to Summersville, take a breath, then look for the first house on the north side. Walk in and you'll see it immediately: burnt books everywhere. Don't overthink it. Just sweep room by room and hoover the piles, shelves, and tables. You'll usually pull a few hundred cloth once you scrap it all. Quick extra: hit the upstairs rooms too, because pillows and teddy bears are easy cloth and people forget them when they're in a rush. If you're trying to force loot to refresh later, this run also helps push your personal pickup counter along while you're at it.

Paper Weight, Big Payoff in Charleston

When you want a change of scenery, go for the Charleston Capitol Building and farm Pre-War Money instead of books. Offices near the DMV area tend to have stacks of cash, plus clipboards and other paper junk that breaks down nicely. The nice part is the money itself doesn't weigh you down until you scrap it, so you can keep moving without that "overencumbered shuffle." If you've got the time, chaining this with Fort Defiance can round things out—barracks clutter, bedding, and the odd outfit piece that scraps into cloth. It's not as brainless as the book house, but it feels less repetitive.

Events and Reset Habits That Actually Work

Public events are the sneaky way to top off cloth while doing something that isn't just looting floors. Collision Course at Morgantown Airport is a classic: easy Scorched waves, then a cargobot drop that often includes a fat stack of Pre-War Money. Dropped Connection can pay out too, and it stacks up faster than you'd think if you stop ignoring the "paper junk" rewards. One habit that helps: don't server-hop every two minutes expecting magic. Loot has rules. If you want a spot to respawn for you, keep grabbing lots of small items as you travel; once you've picked up enough, those high-yield locations start behaving again.

Stash Control and When to Bulk

Cloth isn't hard to get—it's hard to keep organised when your stash is already a mess. If you're doing crafting challenges, bulking cloth at a Tinkerer's Workbench can be handy since it turns loose scraps into something tidy, but remember it costs plastic, so don't do it out of habit. Scrap your haul near a bench, stash it, and keep your route consistent so you're not wasting caps bouncing all over the map. And if you're short on time and want to skip the grind on a busy week, plenty of players point their friends toward Fallout 76 iteams while they focus on building, events, and actually enjoying the run.
