After moving several times in the last few years I told the wife, the next time we’re gonna pile all of our crap in the front yard and burn it. Fortunately we’re pretty much settled now, but that’s my advice: Sell or get rid of absolutely everything you don’t need first.

I agree. We moved all of our stuff and regretted all of it. Does not fit the new house. Sell EVERYTHING you can!

Consider putting your unwanted stuff in the front yard with for a sale sign and price tags...and then leave the house for a while.

Most of it will be stolen before you return home.

Great advice.

It’s amazing how many newly moved into homes we drive by, that have - in addition to flattened moving boxes - TONS of junk piled, at their curbside (waiting for trash pick up).

I always say (to hubby) why did they even take the time/$$/effort to MOVE that cr@p??

I tried, Lord did I try, but the wife wanted none of it. I made plenty of trips to Goodwill to dump a lot of stuff, but there was still way too much she wanted to keep.
