Donate, Sell & Discard
Deciding what to do with belongings is often one of the most time-consuming parts of downsizing. Some items can find a new home through donation, others may have resale value, and some require special handling or disposal.
This guide brings together local resources to help you make those decisions, from furniture donations and estate sales to electronics recycling and responsible disposal. The goal is to help you clear space thoughtfully, without spending hours figuring out where everything should go.
