I don't think you can use revMoveFolder, but you can run this VBScript using
"do <script> as VBScript" from Rev 2.9 or higher:

Const RECYCLE_BIN = &Ha&
Const FILE_TO_MOVE = "C:\yourFileGoesHere.txt"
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set recycleFolder = objShell.NameSpace(RECYCLE_BIN)
recycleFolder.MoveHere FILE_TO_MOVE
result = Err.Number
