In reply to Marguerite Gloss. There are great places to donate your items to. I personally use the Salvation Army, some Veterans organizations, some health organizations ie: Breast Cancer, Kidney, etc. Mustard Seed. Animal shelters, Battered Women/Children Shelters. Most large organizations will pickup your donations. Pick an organization that tugs your heart strings. Don’t fill the landfills with useful items.

In reply to James Alexander Holley. They suggested that in the beginning. Sort into 3 piles. Take to the dump pile, donation pile, and keep pile. I would also suggest some bulky tool items might be replaced by new smaller more efficient item if it is something you absolutely need to have.

You have great ideas. Thank you! I found donating to the presbyterian Shelter is the best place because they provide all items needed for the people that live on the streets. I take Coats,Blanket, socks and so on. They also feed all the homeless people and shelter Men, Women and children if the people want to come in. They are located off of East Lancaster in Fort Worth. I also donate items to Arlington Resale which they donate money made to Pregnant Women that have no where to go. Their shop is in Arlington. Mission Arlington is really good but they will not take large Desk, Entertainment Center but they do give all items to the homeless for free. Does anyone know where I can donate bigger items to? I do estate sales and have bigger items that no one wants and they are quality pieces

What a waste this article is, just like anything else on Yahoo or AOL. No pictures. Nothing original. Only an opportunity to sell advertising space to those wishing to dip their greedy little hands into our pockets.

I have a two car garage.
We have only one vehicle stored in the garage.
Above the car we have a 4×8 storage bin for lightweight materials purchased at Costco.
I also have 6 rolling steel shelves18 inches deep by 4feet long. there is only one aisle for the 6 rolling shelves. this provides a lot of capacity in the garage,
I have 16 feet of painted white pegboard on a wall. for all of the strange things we need to store. (hammers, scissors saws sawblades etcetera.(Large holes)White is important, because it provides contrast and visibility of the hanging items. some folks make tool outlines of the hanging items.
On the car side of the garage we have three rolling tool carts and a homemade 36″ wide by 15″deep vertical storage rack. On the same wall above the carts hangs a 12’by 8′ chunk of carpet.
We have three refrigerators and a compressor in the garage as well.

Donate to Viet nam vets! They pick up everything except large furniture and tv sets. I schedule a pick up once a month for our household, everybody contributes, and it’s a good way to keep constantly on top of the decluttering nightmare!

That is a great idea.
I read the same about goodwills executives making big money.
Womens shelter is 1 of many much better organizations.

Good Will Training Center in Florida is excellent!! They train non violent recently incarcerated individuals to reentry society and they hire them .
They also pay for community college for employees that qualify .
I give them everything I don’t need

In reply to Marguerite Gloss. I take everything that I don’t need to Good Will because they have a fantastic re-entry program where they assist recently non-violent incarcerated individuals. They have the largest recycling program in the world. I don’t mind when CEOs make good money as long as their agency, non for profit corporation does good for the community while they make money.
