The Simpsons have taken over Fortnite, and with them comes a treasure trove of strategic drop locations that most players are completely overlooking. These five spots will transform your early game from a desperate scramble into a methodical loot fest, setting you up for consistent victories. Each location offers unique advantages that go far beyond typical landing zones.
1. Springfield Slurp Works
Springfield Slurp Works transforms shield management from a constant worry into a guaranteed advantage. This industrial complex offers the most comprehensive shield economy in the entire game.
Loot Breakdown
The slurp tanks are your primary target here. Each tank provides 100 shield when destroyed, meaning you could theoretically gain 1,300 shield from this location alone. While you'll never need that much, having access to instant shield refills throughout the match proves invaluable.
Strategic Landing Approach
Land directly on the main factory building where the first Mr. Burns chest spawns with 100% consistency. These legendary chests provide superior loot compared to standard epic chests, often containing mythic weapons or high-tier items.
The second Mr. Burns chest sits in the main floor factory area. After securing both chests, systematically work through the slurp infrastructure while maintaining awareness of other players.
Warning
This location attracts multiple squads due to its obvious value. Come prepared for early fights, but remember that 32 chest spawns mean everyone can get equipped quickly.
2. Evergreen Terrace
Evergreen Terrace might seem like a death trap with its central location and obvious appeal, but smart players understand why it's worth the risk. The steamed hams found here represent the strongest healing items currently available in Fortnite.
Why Steamed Hams Change Everything
Steamed hams heal both health and shield simultaneously, making them superior to any other consumable. You'll find guaranteed spawns at two locations:
- Ned Flanders' house kitchen area
- Homer Simpson's house dining room

Resource Distribution
The area provides 22 slurp barrels, 6 car spawns, and 20 slurp boxes alongside the two Mr. Burns chests. The second legendary chest spawns at the grey house in the northeastern section.
Important
Carry two stacks of steamed hams whenever possible. This healing advantage can single-handedly win late-game situations where other players are rationing weaker consumables.
After looting, consider taking Homer's car for rotation. The vehicle spawns consistently and provides excellent mobility for third-partying or zone rotations.
3. Cletus' Cornhole
This deceptive location offers incredible value while maintaining relative obscurity. Most players overlook the red barn area, making it perfect for consistent, uncontested looting.
The Bush Strategy
The key to this location lies in the surrounding vegetation. Twelve potential chest spawns hide within the bush clusters around the red barn, providing excellent cover and loot density.

Your landing priority should be:
- Slurp truck for immediate full health
- Weapon acquisition from barn or bush chests
- Systematic bush clearing for remaining loot
- Steamed hams collection from Cletus' house
Tip
Bushes provide exceptional cover this season. Use them strategically while looting to avoid detection from rotating players.
The location's quiet nature allows for methodical looting without constant pressure, but don't overstay. Zone positioning becomes crucial from this edge location.
4. The Unnamed Island Cluster
This trio of small islands delivers remarkable loot density in a compact area. Despite lacking an official name, the location rivals major named POIs in terms of chest availability.
Loot Comparison Analysis
The 16 chest spawns across three small buildings actually exceed many named locations, while 10 ammo boxes ensure you'll never lack ammunition. Two car spawns provide rotation options, and the inevitable burger spawns guarantee top-tier healing.
Landing Execution
Target the slurp truck first, then prioritize weapon acquisition before engaging other players. If the primary chest doesn't spawn in the first building, the backup spawn in the secondary structure ensures you won't leave empty-handed.
5. The Dock
This location comes directly from professional player Bonkey and represents the perfect balance of loot, positioning, and strategic value. The dock complex offers multiple approaches depending on bus trajectory.
Adaptive Landing Strategy
Option A - Island First: When the bus approaches from the east, land on the small island featuring:
- Guaranteed slurp truck
- 4 chest spawns
- Launch pad for dock rotation
Option B - Direct Dock: For western bus routes, land directly at the dock's weapon spawns before other players can establish control.
The Secret Advantage
The dock contains a hidden Mr. Burns mystery chest that most players never discover. Combined with 16 total chest spawns (exceeding Corruption Corners), this location provides legendary loot in a low-traffic area.
Two burger trays spawn here, allowing you to carry maximum healing while consuming additional stacks immediately. Seven slurp barrels supplement your shield needs, while two car spawns ensure rotation flexibility.
Pro Tip: Break the back walls immediately after landing to access burger spawns quickly. This location may become contested as word spreads, so efficiency matters.
Advanced Positioning and Rotation
Each location offers unique rotation opportunities that extend beyond simple looting. Understanding these connections helps you maintain momentum throughout the match.
Zone Positioning Strategy
The launch pad at the dock provides the most flexible rotation option, allowing you to reach almost any first zone safely. Evergreen Terrace's central position works for any zone but requires early rotation awareness.
Maximizing Your Advantage
Success with these locations depends on execution speed and decision-making. Each spot rewards different playstyles and team compositions.
Aggressive teams should prioritize Springfield Slurp Works or Evergreen Terrace for immediate fighting potential. The guaranteed shield and legendary weapons support early engagement strategies.
Methodical teams benefit from Cletus' Cornhole or the dock, where uncontested looting leads to superior late-game positioning with maximum resources.
Important
Always adapt your strategy based on bus trajectory and player distribution. Even the best drop spot becomes problematic with poor timing or positioning.
The Simpsons season rewards players who understand these new mechanics and locations. Master these five spots, and you'll consistently enter mid-game with superior loot, full shield, and the best healing items available. Your opponents will still be fighting over scraps while you're already planning your victory rotation.
