​When you are making decisions about what to donate to charity versus what to throw in the trash, there are 3 questions you can ask yourself to make the decisions easier.

Want to know the 3 question to ask when deciding what to donate to charity?  read on...


#1  Am I donating this because I know it will help someone else, or because I just don’t want to throw it away?

Please, don’t “donate” your garbage.

If an item is in great condition and someone will benefit from receiving it, by all means, donate it to a local charity.  But if something is in need of repair, has outdated safety standards (like many baby items), or can be recycled instead, don’t burden a charity with it.


Always throw away:
  • Child  Car Seats and drop-side cribs
  • Broken: Toys / Games / Electronics / Furniture
  • Used: undergarments, socks

​#2  Does this item need repairs or upgrades that are easy to solve?

Some charities have workshops for small repairs, but most do not.  When charities without the ability to make repairs receive broken items, it costs them time and money to dispose of it properly.

For example, Goodwill has this policy: “It’s hard to say “no thank you” to a donation. However, there are some items we simply can’t accept because they are excessively soiled or broken, too costly to dispose of, or have been recalled due to product safety issues.”

Be sure that what you donate is in great condition or needs only minor repairs (like one missing button on a shirt).

Always Throw Out/ Recycle:
  • Items That Don’t Work Or Need Replacement Parts
  • Tube/Projection TVs
  • Computer, Fax, Copy Equipment
  • All outdated technology and electronics

Estate Sales Aren't Always the Answer: Why Estate Clearing Might Better Fit Your Needs


#3  Would you be able to look someone in the eye and gift them the item you’re donating?
​

​If the answer is no, then please discard/ recycle it.

People who receive donations want nice things, just like everyone else. Help instill a sense of pride in belongings by only donating items that are in nice condition. Strike the phrase “beggars can’t be choosers” from your vocabulary.

Always Throw Away/Recycle:
  • Old stained bed pillows
  • Mattresses over 8 years old
  • Damaged or torn furniture, including anything with body fluid spills

Sometimes you can't  do it on your own:

WHEN IT’S TIME TO THROW IN THE TOWEL AND HIRE AN ESTATE CLEARING PROFESSIONAL TO HELP YOU FINISH THE JOB.


There are 2 times when families are faced with trying to figure out how to clear out an entire homes’ worth of possessions, usually within a fairly quick time frame. ​
  • When a family member moves into senior care, leaving behind nearly 80% of possessions in the house that has been lived in for decades. The Power of Attorney (or similar authority) often  takes on the responsibility of getting the remaining home cleared out and ready for market.
  • After a family member passes away and the estate is ready to be cleared out.  The Executor then is charged with emptying the home.
If the Executor / Power of Attorney lives near the home in question, they can easily rally other family members to help with the massive project on nights, weekends, and holidays. This works for families who have the time, willingness, and physical strength to get the job done.

But sometimes that doesn’t work.  Sometimes, you can’t do it on your own.

That’s when you need to consider an Estate Clearing Professional to finish the job for you.

  • Arrange for appraisers, movers, shredding companies, waste disposal, cleaning companies, city services, and much more.
  • Suggest local charitable groups to benefit from items your family chooses to donate. You’ll know your items are helping others in need.
  • Provide you with itemized donations reports, which could save you thousands on your tax returns. ​

When you are ready to declutter your home and start selling some of your items online, you’ll want to do a little bit of research, have a flexible timeline, and have a basic amount of technical savvy.
​
Today we are sharing our top 5 tips for selling your stuff online, and as a bonus, we’ve created a free download of How to Sell Your Items Online Cheat Sheet.

Are you Ready to Learn How to Sell Your Stuff Online? Read On.

Just for our readers, we’ve created this nifty How to Sell Your Items Online Cheat Sheet.  Download and enjoy!

​

​Step One: Google “How to Sell xxx Online”

The first and easiest way to figure out how to sell your stuff online is to simply Google it.

You want to list your item on the site that has the biggest audience of potential buyers. For instance, if you were selling a set of golf clubs online, Ebay may be the best bet.  But if you were selling custom hand-embroidered tea towels, Etsy is where you want to be. Selling antiques and collectibles often is easier on sites dedicated to those items.

The Big Guys: Ebay and Amazon
​

It will come as no surprise that selling your stuff online on Ebay and Amazon are popular methods.

Both platforms have incredibly large audiences, thereby increasing your chances of selling your item quickly.  There are fees associated with using both services, so be sure you are aware of what you are agreeing to before listing your items.

Lesser Known: Ebid, Bonanza, Etsy, Collectors.com
​

As mentioned above, Etsy is a great site for selling handmade and craft items online. If you have beads, buttons, fabrics, and vintage items to sell, be sure to give Etsy a look.

Ebid is a site that is similar to Ebay, but doesn’t have the same amount of traffic. If you’re selling on Ebid, you’ll want to market your items elsewhere, too.  On the plus side, however, EBid has lower fees than the big guys.

Bonanza is a great option for selling more unique and quirky items.  Bonanza has a large audience, has no listing fee, and a low commission percentage compared to Ebay.

Collectors.com is a great option to sell your collectibles online.


Local Options: Craigslist or Facebook Groups

The best thing about selling your stuff online locally is that you pay zero fees for listing and selling.

If you live in an area that has an active Craigslist community, try listing your item there.  Photos are key to selling your items. Use common sense and caution when meeting with buyers: only accept cash and meet in public places.

If you live in a community without a lot of Craiglist action, selling your stuff in Facebook Groups is a great option.  Find local Facebook groups to list your items and be sure to follow all the rules. You’ll keep all the profits of selling via Facebook

Apps to Consider: Letgo, Offerup, Etc.
​

There are several apps that let you create accounts and list your items for other members to see.

Apps like LetGo, OfferUp, and 5Miles, etc. are certainly options, however, many users complain about spammers, failure to show up to buy, etc.  Be sure to read reviews from users before signing up for an app.
