Stashes in GTA 6

A stash is the catch-all for finds that belong to no counted set: a hidden crate, a cache, a bag somewhere unlikely. Earlier Rockstar games did not count them towards completion, and people hunted them anyway.

checkable facts forecast, not fact

There is no item list on this page yet, and that is deliberate. Nobody has exact coordinates before 19 November: there is no PC version at launch, so nobody is unpacking the game files. Everything below about GTA 5 and RDR 2 is checkable fact. Everything about GTA 6 is inference about how it will be built, not about what will actually be there. The map fills up from day one, every marker with a link to its source.

What is known

GTA 5 had no stash category as such — it had sets with counters. RDR 2 introduced stashes proper: hidden crates of money and items scattered across the map with no overall counter and no reward for clearing them.

The difference matters. A set is hunted for the percentage, a stash for what is inside. So stashes have no correct order to work through, and they do not disappear from the world if you walk past.

Where to look

Where Rockstar puts stashes:

Kind of place	Example from earlier games	What makes it hard
Derelict buildings	Crates in ruins and abandoned farms in RDR 2	The building is not marked on the map
Under bridges and decking	Caches in the recesses of supports	Nothing shows from above
Interiors	Crates in cellars and attics	The door is often on the far side
Behind an obstacle	Stashes behind locked doors and grilles	Needs a tool
In water	Crates on the bottom by the quays	Needs diving

What all five share: the place looks ordinary until you know something is there. That is why a hint is worth more on a stash than on a set — a coordinate gets you to the right building, a hint tells you where to look inside it.

What does not open straight away

What stands between you and a stash:

EquipmentA crowbar for the locked, scuba for the sunken. Some RDR 2 crates opened with a tool only.

Story progressSome buildings become accessible as the story moves.

Time of dayStashes on guarded ground are easier to take at night.

MoneyA few caches in earlier games were tied to property you had bought.

Orange depends on how far you have played. Blue depends on what you brought with you.

Using the map

The map can show stashes alone — the other categories drop away and progress is counted for them on their own.

Open the map: stashes only The whole of Leonida

You can add a region inside that view and get, say, every stash in Vice City on one screen. The address of that page can be copied and sent — it opens on someone else's screen in exactly the same state.

What appears after launch

From 19 November this page will carry the stash list with a counter, how-to-find notes and a source link on every marker.

Until an item has been found and backed by a link, it is not on the map. For stashes the rule bites hardest: their locations are the ones traded on hearsay most often.
