Clean up Your House and Make Money While You’re at it

Do you want some extra cash in your pocket? It’s so easy, just declutter your home. You can get rid of things you don’t need anymore by selling them at a garage sale, Ebay, or on Craigslist. The junk you no longer have use for could be a real treasure for someone else. It’s hard to declutter because you look at items that you don’t need and remember how much energy or time they cost you to obtain. But selling these stuff will get you back some of the money you’ve spent so that you can use them for something else that you actually need at the moment.

And if you’re not into the whole money-making thing, you might as well donate your unwanted items or give the money you make off of them to a worthy charity.

Craigslist

You can sell larger items, like furniture for instance, on Craiglist. It’s the perfect place for the bigger and heavy pieces because the buyers are local. That means they will come to you and take it off your hands. So the only fingers you’ll have to lift are the ones that take the money. It’s so easy to sell something on the Internet freaky fast. Isn’t that awesome?

What Can You Sell To Make Money?

Anything and everything can be sold, just start by looking around your house. I’m a hoarder to begin with, but things really got out of hand with tons of useless stuff cluttering my house. So a couple of weeks ago I just had to book domestic cleaners to help me out. They went the whole nine, and cleaned my attic and basement as well. You won’t believe the hidden treasures we found while digging through the junk. Yes, I didn’t need all of that, but I thought I could sell them, so I did. Here’s what I found hidden in my house.

#1 Golf Clubs

If your golf clubs collect dirt in your basement like mine did, you better make sure they go to someone who’ll put them in good use.

 #2 Pool Table

Okay, my basement is very large but the pool table really makes it look freakishly small. And I don’t have time to play pool, so why don’t sell the table?

#3 Kayak

I was really into kayaking, but ever since I moved, time has become somewhat of a scarcity for me. So it’s bye-bye to the kayak for now.

#4 Surfboard

Something my ex left at my house. No need to keep it as a reminder of something I’d much rather forget.

I’m sure there are plenty of treasures hidden in your home. The things just been sitting around forever such as furniture, clothing, home decor, books, antiques, appliances, electronics, and all kinds of other stuff. You just need to look around and sell them.
