Moving can be a daunting process, especially considering the amount of work that goes into packing. But why take everything with you? You can save yourself time and a headache by downsizing and getting rid of unwanted items before you pack. Here, the local movers at S & S Delivery in Honolulu, HI, share three quick and easy ways to get rid of the clutter before your move.

Here Are 3 Easy Ways to Deal With Unwanted Items Before a Move

1. Seek, Find & Toss

Your first order of business is to dig out all of your unwanted items. Search every room in the house and collect anything you aren’t taking with you. Once you’ve located everything, sort it all and take one last look to identify items that are truly valuable to you. You can remove these items from the pile. Anything that is damaged, not working, or serves no meaningful purpose can be tossed in the trash.

2. Donate

Help others in need by donating your items to a local charity. If you have bulky items or have too much to transport on your own, S & S Delivery will be happy to deliver those items for you. Make sure to clean all items and verify they are in working order before sending off to the charity.

3. Moving Sale

If you have time, a moving sale is a great way to get rid of unwanted items and make a little extra cash in the process. Plan for a day when the weather will be nice. Advertise your sale by posting signs in the neighborhood or passing out flyers. Label each item clearly with the price. Display the items neatly and be ready to answer any questions. To help sell items quicker, try selling in bulk.

With a little planning, you can pack for your move and head to your new home without extra stuff tagging along. For the most reliable moving service in the area, turn to S & S Delivery.
