How To Save Money During A House Clearance
Clearing out the clutter within your home can be a daunting and expensive task to undertake. Whether it’s due to moving to a new property, downsizing, or just clearing out unnecessary items, it is important to know how to save money during the process. Our experts here at Greenleaf Clearance have listed a number of tactics you can use to save money while conducting a house clearance.
Organising Disposal
You are bound to find waste and items that you no longer want or need during the clearance process. Disposing of these items appropriately can be difficult, electronics and hazardous waste must be disposed of separately to prevent harmful chemicals seeping into the environment. Try and recycle any plastics where possible, most plastics can be left in recycling bins to be collected by the council. However, disposing of general waste will usually require several trips back and forth to your local landfill site. Disposing of larger homeware items such as mattresses and beds can be costly, which is why it is so important to check beforehand.
Donating Or Selling Items Online
One of the best ways to save money and even make money involves selling the items online. It has never been easier to sell pre-owned items online, with platforms such as eBay, Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace allowing users to list items for free. You can even get buyers to come to you by selecting the collection only option, saving you the time of disposing and transporting whilst making money.
Another great way to save money and time during the clearance involves donating to charity. This is a great way to get an item or piece of furniture of your hands whilst helping a cause at the same time.
