The Sims franchise has been known for its numerous iconic and wild NPCs, from the Grim Reaper in The Sims to the more recent Flower Bunny in the latest title. The Sims 4 Businesses and Hobbies expansion pack has introduced a new Sim to the mix with a rather mysterious personality.
The Sims 4: Hobby Meetups, Explained
Nordhaven has hobby meetups that Sims can attend and connect with like-minded Sims who share their interests - here's what Sims 4 fans need to know.
Players with the DLC may have spotted a masked Sim named Trashely Reelpearson, dressed in a trench coat and claiming to be a perfectly 'legitimate and normal' Sim. However, there’s more to Trashely than meets the eye. This guide will explain how to find Trashely Reelpearson in The Sims 4 Businesses and Hobbies and uncover the truth behind their hidden identity.
How to Find Trashley Reelpearson in The Sims 4
The Sims 4 Businesses and Hobbies brings small businesses to the Sims' world. Players can create their own small businesses based on their Sim's hobbies and interests. A less obvious feature in the DLC is an NPC called Trashley Reelpearson. Trashley is a loner, so players aren't likely to see them out and about during the day. Players who prefer not to leave things to chance can find Trashely at their usual hangout in Nordhaven.
To find Trashley Reelpearson in The Sims 4, players must travel to the Sarpong household, head north across the street, and proceed toward the alleyway with crates and trash cans. The best opportunity to encounter Trashely occurs at night, as they will be there, either rummaging through the trash or jumping into piles of it. Trashely is an elusive NPC and can't be invited to hang out or come over like other Sims, but players can find them in the same alleyway every day after 5 PM.
Trashley's whole face is covered in black wrapping, and they are wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a long tan trenchcoat. At a closer look, players will also notice Trashely doesn't seem to have hands but does have a tail that is oddly similar to a raccoon's. Here is a video demonstrating how to find Trashley in The Sims 4:
Who is Trashley Reelpearson in The Sims 4?
Trashley Reelpearson is a vendor Sim, and players leaning into the Schemer Alignment of Businesses and Hobbies will want to get acquainted with them. Trashley owns a shop called "Good Company Store," selling off-brand consumables, helpful potions, forged documents, and other shady items. To buy from Trashely, click on them and select "Ask to see wares" from the available social options.
Here is a selection of Trashley's Wares in The Sims 4. These items change over time so gamers should check back often.

The Business Opening Fee Reimbursement Form is one of Trashely's most valuable items. When stored in the inventory, it reimburses the opening fee each time a small business is opened. However, there's a chance the form may be rejected. If that happens, players can scrap it and purchase a new one to try again.
How to Get Trashley Certified Art in The Sims 4
Players can purchase one of Trashely's boxes, each containing a piece of art or valuable items that can be sold. Trashely Certified Art includes classics such as a googly-eyed womannequin or a gold bust wearing sunglasses. The contents of the boxes are random, but items are more likely to be valuable if they come from the Best Box.
