I'm hoping I can do this.

As part of a quest, I have the player required to pick up a shovel.

I have a shovel as a placeable, but with inventory, so you can loot it and pick up a quest item labeled "Old Shovel"

What I want to do is have the shovel on the actual screen disappear once you've looted the "Old Shovel" from within it. Is there a way to do this?

Ther on-screen placeable must not be marked as 'Static', nor can it be an 'Environmental Object', otherwise, there's no way to manipulate it even via script.

If it IS a placeable that's not 'Static', you also need to ensure whether in creation or in the script that it is NOT flagged as 'plot'.

Once all these criteria are set, then the placeable can be removed permanently via the

DestroyObject()

command.
