Resources for Your Unwanted Items

Cleaning out the house when you are getting ready to move can be a challenge. So many places today will not take those useful but unwanted items that you held onto for so many years!

Putting good smaller items on the curbside the day before trash pickup can be simple - seems there's always someone to pick up useful items for their den or garage. This is actually my favorite method of recycling! I love seeing an eager soul jump from their car to snatch a tricycle or lamp or small table, knowing that my castoff is still useful to someone.

For other items or when the weather is just too nasty for putting stuff outside, try these resources:

Friends in Deed at 734-484-7607 They were recently willing to take mattresses and bedding which is very hard to give away and not welcome out on the curb.
Purple Heart at 734-728-4560
Dawn Farms at 734-485-8725
Dr.Raymond Molano at 734-429-2737 who I've heard will take clothes (often hard to find someone to take)
Salvation Army at 734-668-8353 or 734-761-7750

Consider starting that clearing out process now - it's less to do when the actual move comes up! Need any other help with your future move? Do call me at 800-923-3245. I've lots of resources for all the moving issues!
