How to delete buildings in Palworld – Disassembly Mode, explained

Delete those oopsie daisies.

Building up a base in Palworld can take time, and sometimes, it’s easy to make a mistake. You might fret at first, but don’t worry. Palworld has a built-in Disassembly Mode for dealing with those happy little accidents.

Your first instinct, when faced with a misplaced building, may be to punch it. But whether it’s a foundation for a wooden home or a misplaced workbench, or even if you want to uproot and move a base, the Disassembly Mode can take care of it all, without damaging your hands or tools.

How to access Disassembly Mode

Getting into the Disassembly Mode in Palworld is simple. Open up your radial Build menu (B on keyboard) and spy the Disassembly Mode option tucked away at the bottom. We’ve added a glaring red arrow to make it easier to see.

Once you’re in this mode, you can simply click on the object you want to disassemble and watch it burst apart. It’s an easy way of destroying things, without all the hassle of punching or axing them.

Yes, you keep your resources

When you disassemble something through the Disassembly Mode in Palworld, all resources are returned to your inventory. (Keep that in mind if you’re already close to being encumbered.)

Additionally, if you take down something like a Wooden Chest with the Disassembly Mode, the items should drop out onto the ground. I tested this out with a Wooden Chest and some lower-grade Medicine, and lo and behold, I did not lose the Medicine. My Pals will still have their health, at least.

So if you mess up building, Palworld at least offers a stress-free re-do button with its Disassembly Mode. It’s quick, easy, and pretty satisfying to use, too.
