Tips For Decluttering For Cash
Here are some tips I’ve found helpful when going through my own personal household items.
Use A Box System
Label three boxes (or bags) for sorting. Here are the categories I recommend:
- Trash
- Donate
- Sell
Simply place items in the appropriate bag. This makes it easy to run things to a donation center or put in the garbage. The “Sell” box you will definitely want to hang on to so you can turn those items into cash!
Tackle One Area At A Time
If your goal is to make money by decluttering your whole house, that’s a big praise-worthy goal.
But…it can be overwhelming!
Instead of focusing on the big goal of the whole house, break it into smaller chunks. Tackle one area at a time.
It could be a room. Or a closet. Or a shelf in the closet.
Practice Makes Perfect
It can be hard to get started! And it can be slow going at first.
But the more you practice, the easier it become to get rid of things.
Ask Yourself These Questions
If you’re having trouble getting rid of items, ask yourself these questions:
- Have I used this item in the last three years?
- Does this item bring me joy?
- Could someone else enjoy this item more?
Temporary Storage
If you’re still having trouble discarding things, to putting items in a box. Put them in storage for a set time.
Once your set time is up, if you haven’t needed them, you can be sure it’s safe to get rid of these items.
