Whether you are heading into fall or spring, the change in seasons often springs a desire to clean and organize.
Often we end up having things that we no longer want but don't know how to responsibly dispose of.
One alternative to throwing them out might be a community curbside giveaway. That is when a specific day is selected and you can put any unwanted items out to the curb, signaling that these items are available for the taking.
Other ideas might be posting your items on a local freecycle group or donating your items to local shelters.
It's a win-win. You declutter and your items find a new home.
