Clearing Clutter for Charity
Are you thinking of selling your home? Here are 10 ways to give to charity. The number one thing we recommend to our clients is to “declutter“. We all have collections, whether stacks of books, our children’s old sports equipment kitchen odds and ends of dishes, glasses, cutlery. Also, furniture is no longer needed. You may even have stockpiles of clothing, shoes, purses, costume jewelry. There’s an old adage–“your stuff is another’s treasure”. Consider donating to a charity!
Decluttering is healthy! You will improve your homes’ salability and feel amazingly free. There are countless charities to choose from and the best part is these charities help us and in return, we help them.
We have posted a few ideas about who takes what–and where it goes: If you have a favorite charity, let us know!

A Habitat for Humanity “ReStore” is a warehouse that accepts donations of overstocked, used, discontinued items and salvageable building materials donated from manufacturers, other stores, local contractors, and the public. Donating Items that are new and gently used like furniture, building materials, appliances, cabinetry, sinks, countertops, are very valuable. Household, décor items, lighting, and much more are given with greater value. The Restore will then sell your donated items at 30-70% less than the original retail value.
