What to do with your stuff when the yard sale is over.

You’re reducing prices like crazy.  Haggling has become your middle name.  Now it’s just too hot and you’re ready to sip cold lemonade on the couch.  It’s all FREE!  And just like that your yard sale is over.

Now what?

Still couldn’t get rid of some of your games?  Just couldn’t bear to let someone walk out with your favorite chair for only $10?  Great. You had a yard sale to get rid of this stuff and now it’s going to hang around like glitter after a kindergarten party.

Most people decided to de-clutter by taking their left over items to the thrift store. This is a great idea to get rid of things that you know you aren’t going to use.  Think about things like clothing or kitchen utensils.  If you haven’t used these things in a couple of years, odds are you won’t use them for the next couple of years.  Giving your left over yard sale items to a thrift store is a great way to give back to the community and is a nice way to get a tax deduction too!

But what about the items that you think are worth something more.  If you feel that your items have value and you don’t want to part with them for nothing, then try selling them online.  Take a few pictures after the yard sale and upload them to TheFreeWay.com .  You don’t have to settle for $5 when you know your item is worth $50. 

The easiest way to post your items online is to invite us to your yard sale. We’ll bring coffee, doughnuts, and a camera.  We’ll take pictures of your stuff and help you put them online instantly.  Don’t stress about not being able to sell your stuff in one day.  With our help, you can post your ad online for free and get the right buyer and the right price.
