WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR DECLUTTERED ITEMS: It’s always best to take a few minutes to do research to see what's available locally. Call ahead to find out what local shops and charities are in most need of. To sell items, consider a quick yard/garage sale. When donating your goods, clean, wash and organize by type and category as much as possible. Donate your goods in something recyclable to reduce waste.

Don’t forget to call or email local schools, churches, or other local organization that might need what you have. Take some photos, send them in an email with the quantity + condition to see if anyone can use it. Think anything from office supplies, toys, books to linens + clothing. The community around you needs you to reach out them.

Found another great donation resource link or charity you love? Awesome! I would love to hear about any resources that can utilize decluttered goods from our homes so we can share it here with our community. The more resources we can gather together the better!
