Hand-Me-Downs<\/h3>\n
Do you have\u00a0college students or post graduates that will need furniture for their apartments or houses? This is the perfect time to pass on your extra furniture from your additional rooms that you won\u2019t have space for in your new house. This way you won\u2019t have to get rid of the furniture altogether and it will actually go to good use by saving your kids money from having to buy their own.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\nDonations<\/h3>\n
After you have had your garage sale and given your kids or family members what they want, try not to throw anything away. Too often people will just toss items\u00a0that they no longer want before considering to donate to Goodwill or other nearby thrift store. You can also donate at charitable organizations that offer pickup and drop-offs for most household items, including clothing, furniture, electronics, toys, and more. Remember that there is always somebody out there who might find a new purpose for something that you don\u2019t need anymore.<\/p>\n

Use a color coded labeling process<\/a> so that you know which stuff needs to stay together and which stuff goes in what room. This will help make the packing process<\/a> less stressful\u00a0and more organized when needing to unpack later.<\/p>\n There is always room to simplify your life and declutter your belongings. Downsizing is the perfect chance to take a step back and think, “What do I really need?” and “How can I simplify my life as much as possible?” This can range from your wardrobe to your kitchen items or even your holiday decorations<\/a>.
