Trash for benefit (or "TfB") are trashers that provide a benefit based on the trashed card, normally based on its cost, and typically providing better benefits for trashing more valuable cards. TfB cards can typically be used both for thinning your deck by trashing junk cards for modest benefits (or no benefits), and for achieving large immediate bonuses at the expense of sacrificing a card you might otherwise prefer to keep in your deck. Terminal TfB cards are usually soft terminals; when they collide with an expendable Action, they can use it for fodder, sometimes even to gain or buy a Province.
Cards that specifically gain another card based on the trashed card's cost are remodelers.
List of cards
See Remodelers for cards that gain cards based on a trashed card's cost.
Scaling with the trashed card's cost
- Apprentice — +1 Card per
and +2 Card per 
- Bishop — +1
per 
- Broker — +1 Attack, +1 Card, +, or +1 Favor per
- Crucible — + per
- Raze — Looks at a card per and choose one to put into hand
- Recruiter — +1 Villager per
- Research — Sets aside a card per to put into hand at start of next turn
- Ritual — +1 per
- Salvager — + per
- Scrap — A choice of different effects per
- Trader — Gain a Silver per
Non-scaling effects based on cost
- Catapult — Performs a cursing attack if the trashed card costs
or more. - Pickaxe — Gains a Loot if the trashed card costs or more.
Other effects
These effects are based on the trashed card's type or other properties, rather than its cost.
- Catapult — Performs a handsize attack if the trashed card is a Treasure.
- Counterfeit — Plays the trashed Treasure twice, effectively doubling its value.
- Maroon — +2 Cards per number of types of the trashed card.
- Rice Broker — Draws a different number of cards depending on the trashed card's type.
- Sacrifice — Effect depends on the trashed card's type.
- Student — Gains a Favor and top-decks itself if the trashed card is a Treasure.
- Transmute — Gains different cards based on the trashed card's type.
Although Hideout does not provide a benefit, it does provide a penelty in the form of a Curse if the trashed card is a Victory, which can be considered related.
