Redesigning your island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons has always been exciting — until the cleanup begins. Collecting scattered furniture, fences, and flowers can take hours. Thankfully, the 3.0.0 update brings back a familiar face with a modern twist: Mr. Resetti, now running a professional Reset Service.
This service makes clearing specific areas, beaches, or your entire island easier than ever — and with complete control over what’s saved or discarded. In this guide, you’ll learn exactly how Resetti works, what he can and can’t remove, and pro tips to make your island redesign stress-free.
