I have already sent my kids info on a company that will clean out the house——they take EVERYTHING,including what’s in cabinets and the refrigerator.
I suggested that they take what they want and told them not to worry about mucho cash hidden around my place——because there is none. :-)
These people then take everything———the kids get the empty place cleaned——and sell it.
.
What’s the name of that company and do they have branches across the country?
Bless you, and bless you for being straight with your kids!!
Wife's grandmother was a hoarder. Cleaning out her house was an adventure. Piles and piles of old magazines, newspapers, plastic bags and the like.
One habit was saving old Pringles potato chip cans. She had 100's of them. While I was tossing them in the dumpster, I noticed that one felt/sounded a little weird. Opened it up, and found a roll of 10's and 20's. $%@%$#$#%##!!!!. So, back through all of the trash we went, found I don't know how much cash stashed in odds and ends of stuff. Just going through the clothes (also hoarded) in her closets was daunting.
After a whole lot of hunting, we found her jewelry - Engagement ring and the like, at least the pieces the family knew about.
Whoever bought that house likely got themselves a small fortune, without ever knowing it.
