The Great Sort

This is what the current plan is, room by room. Large items that can be sold will go up on Nextdoor, Craigslist, and FB Marketplace first, then the yard sale if they don’t sell online. Any items that don’t sell at the yard sale will be picked up by Savers or Salvation Army for donation. Mattresses will be picked up by junk crew.

  1. The Kitchen – Most of the kitchen stuff will be thrown out – there’s not too much I want to bring with me. Whatever doesn’t sell will get donated or given away.
