Recently, this house was used as a crime scene for my detective. I decided to play the household who owns the house and the invisible clues didn't get cleaned up; I had to manually clean them myself. What worked:
When the invisible clues were inside the house itself, selecting the sledgehammer causes the objects to become highlighted so I was able to delete them that way. If the objects were outside, all I had to do was build a wall right on it and it would cause the items to go to the household inventory so I could sell them.
Now I'm having this issue. This invisible clue is right on the edge of the lot and I can't build a wall on it because it's too far on the edge, and the sledgehammer doesn't highlight it so I can't use that. The trash can is just there to show it being there, but also showing that I can't build anything on it which is slightly annoying.

Yea I did that. Also tried uploading it to the gallery, bulldozing my lot then putting it back, but the object is there as a packaged deal.
If you have MCCC mod, and have Debug Cheats setting enabled, you can shift click the item, and click “ delete” I don’t know if you have that mod?

Do you mean bb.showhiddenobjects? I just tried it, but I'm not sure what I need it for (I never really use that cheat), but I know it gives a list of hidden items available in buy mode.
I do have MCCC but I can't shift+click the item because it's invisible. I can only see it when I drag an item over it in build mode.
The Debug Cheats setting is found at
MCCC > MCCC Settings > Notification / Console / Menu Settings > Console Command Settings > Debug Commands in Cheats
When that setting is enabled, you have an option comes up to “ delete object.” Is there perhaps a way you could show the item and at the same time shift click it?

I enabled it and I'm seeing the debugging options when I click the ground now, but yes, the problem is the object won't show up at all in Live Mode so I can't shift+click it. I can't think of a way to show the item whatsoever.

Just tried, but it doesn't work either unfortunately.
Perhaps you could try having your sim move to another home. Then have him visit the home, and then travel back to the new home. Then try moving back to the original home and see if that helps.

Tried but no go as well. In the end, I ended up doing something along that line to fix it. I moved out, kept all my furniture, then moved back in. Now the invisible item is in my household inventory (along with about 10 more which I never knew was there lol). It's not much of a pain to just redecorate again as I took screenshots of the house before moving out so I know where everything goes, and at least I don't have to work on placing the walls, rooms, windows, doors, or plants again.
Thank you very much rosemow! and Dekay for the help!
