Easiest Way Ever to Purge and Declutter Before Christmas
Are you clearing out and cleaning up before the holidays?
I have had to stop and look around my house. We have stuff and a lot of it! I wonder every year where I will put all of the new things that the holidays bring.
The holidays are such an amazing time of year but they can be stressful. Whether you are hosting a family gathering or just needing to tidy up before breaking out all of your holiday decor it is really something all of us face with the things we have in our houses. Have you ever really thought of the value you probably have in your house with things you don’t use? It can be a real eye opener!
Lately we have been working little by little on the most cluttered areas of our house. Some of the things I have discovered I really didn’t remember them and then others I think why have I been holding on to this stuff!? I make attempts to have garage sales every year but sometimes it is just a hassle. I either run out of time or don’t make it through my house to clear the clutter. With my kids, sports, the blog and other demands, I just don’t have time to plan a huge sale and gather things until I am ready. I am in desperate need of clearing out and cleaning up before the holidays!

Thank you for sharing these tips. I’m in desperate need of a purge. My house has gotten so crammed full of stuff, it’s unbelievable.
Girl, I can totally relate!!
This is awesome. I have SO much stuff that I could selll that my boys have long outgrown. I need to so this.
They really make it easy to sell it all online to people in your area. It’s really super cool!
I wish I knew of this before we moved. We got rid of so many things that we could have put on there.
It’s never too late. Just keep it in mind the next time you need to purge… maybe after the holidays. 😉
I’m sure I have a ton of stuff that I could post on VarageSale. I wonder what other people in my area are selling right now.
I know, right? Immediately I wondered what kind of awesome household things could I buy from someone in my area for a price within my budget. Next time we are looking to purchase a big ticket household item, I am checking VarageSale first!
I’ve never heard of VarageSale, but it sounds like a great initiative. I hope they start one in my area soon! I’d really enjoy both buying and selling with it.
There are communities in 42 states and they are growing, growing, growing. If there is not one in your area yet, I am sure there will be soon!
I could totally use some of these tips! I am checking VarageSale right now!
I will definitely check to see if it’s available in my area, I do not have children yet constantly get toys and stuff for littles that are all new in box, I’m sure I would make a killing there! LOL 🙂
And remember, it is for household items as well. So if you want to sell your sofa and get get a new one, list it here!
These are great tips! I hope to really prepare our place before the holiday rush comes in.
love this idea. we always go through everything before christmas. and then we go through my daughters stuff before her bday. i hate clutter.
I hear ya!
Oh, these tips are very helpful when it comes to decluttering. Thanks for these tips, they’re helpful for me too!
I love your suggestions. I’ve got a lot of stuff that I could sell. I will check out the varage sales in our area.
I think this is the coolest idea. Who want to have a garage sale in the cold? Nobody, but now you can online!
My thoughts exactly! Super cool and makes it so easy!
this is great! I have not heard of this site before. We just took 5 garbage bags full of stuff last week to goodwill
I really wish this app was available in my area!! Instead I will stick to Craigslist and online Facebook Garage sales…ugh.
They are growing leaps and bounds. Check back in every now and then and see if they are launching in your area? What is the closest large city to you?
I have so many things to get rid of, unfortunately, I can only ship clothing to an online consignment. I have to find out if there’s an online garage sale here in our area.
You can go here and enter your zipcode and see if there is a VarageSale community in your area: https://www.varagesale.com/
This is a great resource for people to make a little extra cash this time of year. I will check it out and see if they offer it in my area. Sounds like a fun way to sell off some old stuff!
Agree, Melissa. Purge and make some extra cash before the holidays!
I agree. Everyone’s thinking of money for shopping this time of year. 🙂
Yup, we need to clear some clutter around here. The hubs and I were just talking about it actually. Going to check VarageSale for sure. Sounds like what we need.
Glad this is something you can potentially use. This is the perfect time of year to give it a try!
I really need to clean and purge before the holidays. I will take a look at this service for sure!
I’ll have to check them out sometime soon. I’ve been in a purging mood lately, especially since I’ll be in the midst of moving sometime soon.
The Varage Sale sounds interesting and I will have to check it out. In our area we have sites like this for items people sale in their own area. It really is very convenient and I love looking to see what people have for sale too. Thanks for the information.
I could definitely use a purge this time of year before we start getting new Christmas presents!
Thanks for sharing this! I always have to purge before the holidays to make room for all of the new stuff! I hadn’t heard of varage sale before so I’ll definitely have to check it out.
