Decluttering is really important but what do you do with all the clutter you no longer want? Our storage facilities in Watford will help you make money from your clutter.

Decluttering is an important part of making your home a spacious and enjoyable place to live. Clutter is not good for us as it affects our physical and mental health so doing regular declutters is an imperative part of your life. 

But what do you do with the clutter that you no longer need or want? Some items may need throwing away, others you could give to a charity shop or put them on a website such as Freecycle. But, what is one man’s clutter is another man’s treasure so there will also be items that you could easily sell.

Within this article we will talk about how you can make some money from your excess clutter and how our storage facilities in Watford will help. 

Making Money From Your Clutter

There are many ways in which you can make money from your clutter. Within this first section, we will talk about the different places that you can sell your clutter. 

Selling Your Clutter At A Carboot Sale

Carboot sales are a great way to sell your clutter and make some extra money. Check Facebook, local websites or papers to see any that are happening in your area. 

Once you know which carboot sale you will be attending, pack your items carefully into boxes so they do not break or get damaged on the way to the carboot sale. You will want to arrive nice and early so you can get a good spot and be realistic with your pricing. 

Also, you will also want to consider taking things like a table to put the items on and you will want to make sure that you have plenty of change and carrier bags, depending on what you are selling. You will also want to make sure that you bring food and drink for yourself. 

Selling Your Clutter Online 

Another place that you can sell your clutter is online. There are many online platforms where you can sell items such as eBay and Facebook Marketplace. 

When it comes to selling online, it is all about the details. If you are selling a pair of Doc Martens boots, make sure to include the brand, the size, the colour and how old they are/how much they have been worn. You will also need to take good quality photographs because people need to see what they are buying. 

Sell At An Auction

If you have larger or more expensive items, it could be a good idea to sell these at an auction house. Your items will be valued by an expert and you will have a good grasp of how much it is worth and what it may sell for. 

Of course, auctions are all based upon whether people want to buy your items so it is a good idea to have a reserve price so you don’t sell something for less than it is worth. 

If your item does sell, you will need to give the auction house a commission so remember to take this into consideration.
