Where to put old things

Surely in every person’s house there is at least a couple of unnecessary things that have already served their allotted time. And you need to get rid of them so as not to clutter the pantry, balcony or mezzanine in the apartment. And below we will talk about ways to say goodbye to unnecessary and old things.

Charity

Items can be donated to charity. There are many specialized stores, where you can donate unwanted clothes, shoes and other things. They will be sold at a significant discount, and all proceeds will go to charity. In addition, you yourself can give things to people in need. For example, take them to the nearest church, orphanage or boarding houses for the elderly.

Sale

If the first option does not suit you, then you can try to sell unnecessary things.

Commission shop

commission shop

This is a fairly common way of getting rid of old things, which will also bring a small profit.Several stores should be considered for drop-off, and it is recommended to discuss the terms and conditions of the drop-off with the staff during the process. Also find out about the condition in which the items being handed over must be. If necessary, all defects should be corrected. For example, wash clothes. After the merchandiser conducts an inspection, the price for the brought clothes will be announced, and upon voicing the client’s consent, a purchase will be made!

Notice boards

Unwanted clothes can be sold on private message boards. After all, what has become unnecessary for one person will certainly be useful to another. For example, old boots are suitable for a shoemaker to cut out patches for shoes, and worn-out jeans can be useful for a summer resident to create a scarecrow on his own property.

City newspapers

You can also advertise the sale of items in a local newspaper. The principle of action will be the same as in the previous paragraph.

Throw away

It will take a decent amount of time to take unnecessary things to the landfill. First, you need to look around and find out what clothes and household items have long ceased to be used, and only serve as a dust collector in the apartment. In this case, it is necessary to start with the most complex and important, gradually moving on to simpler work.

throwaway clothes

Go into each room and select the things you need to get rid of. Look for them everywhere: in closets, under the sofa, on the balcony, in the pantry and on the mezzanine, under tables, etc. Then sort them into bags and take them to the landfill. And if there are too many things, then simply call specialists who, for a fee, will load and remove the garbage you have accumulated to specially designated places.

Remake

Old things are an excellent material from which you can make a number of unique items.

  1. Case for tablet or phone. It is easy to make from thick denim, and you can use rhinestones and other decorative elements for decoration.
  2. Pillowcases. Old colored shirts make great pillowcases for your pillows.
  3. Dog mat. By making strips of fabric and then weaving them with braids, you can make an excellent rug for your pet.
  4. Upholstery for chairs. Denim fabric of different colors can be used to make excellent upholstery for a chair, and hardly anyone will guess that this furniture was made by an unknown designer in the world!
  5. Napkins for the kitchen. Probably, napkins are already a classic of the genre. Use fabrics of different colors to sew them, and bring more positivity and bright emotions into the kitchen space.

This is just a small part of the products that can be made from unnecessary things. Everything will depend on your imagination and existing skills!
