Files, Trash, and your Mac
BlackBin is a native macOS utility that gives your files a new route to the Trash. Drag a file or folder toward the top centre of your display, let Black reach out, and drop it when the target accepts it.
Accepted drops move actual files and folders into your Mac’s system Trash. BlackBin does not permanently delete files or empty the Trash. To recover something, open Trash in Finder and use Put Back where available, or move it out.

BlackBin requires macOS 14 or later.
