Week 4
*Declutter Kitchen and any leftover areas of your home.
*Sort items into category groups like clothing by size, books, knickknacks, house wares, tools, toys, baby items, movies, etc.
*Finish pricing items. Remember your goal is to get rid of this stuff.
*Plan out your yard area. Big items line the driveway to attract people. Clothing on racks. A giveaway box. Kids with a concession stand.
*Get lots of change to use for the sale.
The Day Of:
*Don’t sleep in. Take the time early in the day to get ready and set up. Customers will begin coming as soon as you’ll let them in. The early morning is one of your busiest times.
*Post signs in the places you’ve planned.
*Setup all of your tables, items, concessions, etc.
*Sell, Sell, Sell. Be prepared for customers to bargain.
*Donate the rest. Don’t let yourself bring the clutter back in. Remind yourself that you don’t need it.
*Take down any signs promptly.
Garage sales are a great way to get rid of clutter and make your home more organized. Following this four week plan will allow you to free up space in your home while filling up your wallet.
