When a bank or trust company holds money for a specific purpose this is called a trust account. A individual called a 'trustee' is accountable to administer the funds, in the manner legally described, to the beneficiaries.

How cash check payable to trust?

I am fairly certain that the simple answer is, "You cannot."

A trust account can be liquidated if the wording used to create the trust allows for its liquidation. The actions taken would be to sell the assets of the trust and distribute the cash to the beneficiaries of the trust. This again is only possible if the trust's creative wording allows or says it should be done. A trust is administered by a trustee appointed for its position by the will of trust or in the words used to create the trust.
