De-Cluttering your home - Freecycle.org

For many sellers one of the most painful parts of selling a home is de-cluttering.  Years of items have some way of accumulating somewhere in the garage or the attic.  Hauling it too the dump take time, gas and effort and what do you do with something that is still good and may be of some use to someone?  The Goodwill is always a great option but there are some items they will not take.  

Freecycle.org is a great option.  You post your item and then someone comes and picks it up and you are done.  Simple, fast, FREE and "green" because the item is being used and not filling up a dump somewhere.  It really is amazing the junk people will actually come pick up.  Fencing ripped down by the last storm, old paint, broken items, etc.  If you are selling your home, freecycle might be an option for those who need to de-clutter and clear out some things.  

On the flip side, my wife occassionally sends me out to pick up someone else's junk.

What a great idea.  Only on my second day being a member of the AR community and i am learning so much.  I love everyone who has commented on my first Blog and am now having a great time reading theirs.  I particularly love this idea.

Thanks..............
