I'm stumped. I wanted to design a "garbage can" of sorts to dispose of clutter and useless items. So far I have the design down, except the part that actually deletes the items. In the past, I've had a chest hooked up to a comparator that activates a command block to "reset" the chest (a simple setblock command). That was on PC. It doesn't appear to work on PE, where the chest is reset, yes, but the items are still inside it. And I'd really like to not have to use lava or fire. Any advice/tips are wholly appreciated!

Late comment but oh well, can't be helped :)

When all else fails: make a (not too deep) hole and at the bottom remove 4 blocks in all directions. Then place sand and a cactus. Next place a dropper upside down above the hole (so that it drops the items onto the cactus). Important detail: above the hole.

Add a comparator going out of the dropper, place redstone dust and a repeater set to 2 ticks. Run its output into the side of the comparator, as well as into another repeater which runs into the dropper.

Something like this:

Redstone garbage can

As a result the dropper will throw all of its items into the hole, and because there's a cactus there those items will be destroyed. As long as the dropper contains items the comparator will trigger the redstone clock which makes the dropper drop its items.



Easy ;)

A solution would be to drop the items down a tube and into the void.
Not sure it's that efficient, but it would be fun :D
