Sweep The Moon Upgrades Guide: Upgrade Computer Costs and Canister Level 2

All six Upgrade Computer branches and their opening prices, plus how to afford and buy the $20 canister upgrade.

All six Upgrade Computer branches and their opening prices, plus how to afford and buy the $20 canister upgrade.

In Sweep The Moon, almost everything beyond the brush in your hand is bought at the Upgrade Computer. It’s a kiosk in the middle of the base that sells permanent stat boosts across six branches. The cheapest one, a bigger canister, costs just $20 and more than doubles how much dust you carry per trip.

Quick answer: Sweep and deposit until you have $20. Then walk to the UPGRADES kiosk, press E, pick the Canister branch, and hit BUY. That raises your canister from 2.5 kg to 6 kg.


Sweep the Moon – Upgrades

Upgrade Computer location and controls

The Upgrade Computer sits at the center of the base lobby, just inside from where you spawn on the lunar surface. It’s labeled UPGRADES. Walk up to it and an “Open” prompt appears, mapped to E. You don’t need to put away your brush to use it. The kiosk works with the Scrubber (or whatever brush you hold) still in slot 1.

A few other HUD controls are worth learning at the same time. P opens the SHOP, which is the Robux store and not the upgrade menu. V toggles “Unlock mouse,” and you’ll want it to click buttons comfortably inside menus on PC. The Tool Shop is a separate wall display elsewhere in the base, and brushes are bought there rather than at the computer.

Upgrade Computer branches and first-level costs

The Upgrade Computer lays its upgrades out as a radial tree with six branches and 20 nodes in total. A counter tracks how many nodes you own. It reads 1/20 owned on a fresh save and ticks up with every purchase. Each branch shows the price of its next level.

BranchWhat it improvesFirst price
CanisterMax dust weight carried$20
Head widthBrush contact area$80
Head powerCleaning speed$80
Walk speedMovement speed$80
Tile bonusCash for finishing tiles$250
PayoutCash per deposit$300

Canister is the obvious first buy. At $20 it costs a quarter of the next-cheapest branch, and it directly cuts the walking that eats most of an early run. Head width, Head power, and Walk speed all open at $80, so they’re the natural second tier. Tile bonus and Payout are late-game buys at $250 and $300.

Canister levels

The Canister branch has six levels. The in-game description makes the trade-off plain. A bigger canister holds more dust, which means fewer trips back to the deposit.

LevelCapacityCost

3 of 612 kg$50

How to earn $20 for your first upgrade

Cash only comes from emptying your canister at the base. A full 2.5 kg canister pays a small, variable amount, typically $2 or $3 per deposit. Plan on several full trips before you can afford Canister Level 2. If you want to jump in right away, the experience lives on its Roblox page.

Head outside the base with your brush equipped and hold the mouse button to sweep. Dust lies on outlined tiles across the lunar surface. Each tile has its own cleaned meter that fills toward “100% CLEAN!” as you work it.

Watch the canister gauge in the bottom-left corner. It rises as you sweep. When it hits its limit, the HUD flashes “FULL!” with your capacity, and the brush stops picking up dust.

Once the canister is full, sweeping stops collecting dust until you empty it.

A full canister also brings up a “Never fill again” purchase prompt for the Infinite Canister. It’s optional and costs Robux. You can ignore it and keep playing for free.

Follow the red line back to base. A “Canister full” waypoint shows the distance in meters to the deposit, so you never have to hunt for it, even on a tile far from the entrance.

Step onto the black mat in front of the DEPOSIT machine. The canister empties automatically, and a “Deposit” tag shows the weight and the cash added, such as 2.5 kg for +$3.

Go back out and repeat the loop until your cash reads $20 or more. Half-cleaned tiles keep their progress, so returning to the same patch finishes it faster than starting a new one.

Buying Canister Level 2 at the Upgrade Computer

With at least $20 in hand, the purchase takes a few seconds and applies instantly. You don’t need to re-equip anything or return to the deposit.

Head to the UPGRADES kiosk in the lobby, then press E to bring up the Upgrade Computer. On PC, tap V beforehand if the cursor is locked.
Select the Canister branch. Its panel reads “Canister Level 2 of 6,” shows the jump from 2.5 kg to 6 kg, and lists the $20 price.
Click BUY. The $20 is deducted from your balance on the spot.

You’ll know it worked in three ways. A “Bought: Canister” notification pops up. The owned counter moves from 1/20 to 2/20. And the Canister branch now offers Level 3 of 6, which takes you from 6 kg to 12 kg for $50. Your canister gauge also reads 6 kg on the next run, so each trip carries more than twice as much dust.

Brush upgrades at the Tool Shop

Brush width works alongside the Head width branch, but the brushes themselves come from the Tool Shop wall display, not the Upgrade Computer. They unlock in a strict line. Each brush requires the one before it, so you can’t skip ahead to the T-Bar Brush even with $120 saved.

Scrubber0.28 m$15Toothbrush
Dustpan Brush0.39 m$30Scrubber
BroomWider$50Dustpan Brush
Large BrushWider$80Broom
T-Bar BrushWidest$120Large Brush

Buying a new brush equips it in place of the one you’re holding, and the shop displays its width increase over your current tool. For example, the Dustpan Brush is 0.11 m wider than the Scrubber. The Large Brush is a braced push broom for clearing a lane, while the T-Bar Brush is a wheeled sweeper fitted with a T-handle.

Canister shortcuts outside the Upgrade Computer

Sweep The Moon also sells ways around the canister limit. None of them are required, and the Upgrade Computer path covers the same problem with in-game cash.

  • Infinite Canister (permanent): 99 Robux. Your canister and vehicles never fill.
  • Infinite Canister (this moon only): 29 Robux for the same effect on your current moon.
  • Sell As You Sweep: 249 Robux. Dust pays out as you sweep, without a trip to the deposit.
  • Group bonus: a pedestal in the base gives +2 kg canister capacity for liking the game and joining the group.

The group bonus is free and stacks the most naturally with an early Canister Level 2 purchase. Beyond that, the cheapest route to bigger runs is the one the Upgrade Computer already lays out: Canister first, then the $80 branches, and Payout once your trips are long enough to make it count.
