I can load up really detailed sketchup models, or a simple beveled cube ingame but I cant load up a trash can model I made?

One of the most common reasons for a model not to show is some kind of error with the texture, torque requires actual image file textures and not just the materials used by many 3d apps.

The next most common is probably a texture image that isnt a power of 2 in its dimensions.

It was the only model I UV mapped so I would assume texturing is the problem
EDIT: nope, remade the model with the exact size and everything and it shows up ingame, I get no unusual errors but its completely invisible

Not sure how you are doing your export but you have to make sure that all geometry is contained within the bounding box. If anything sticks out, the object won't render.
