What do you do with items you don't want anymore?

 Do you donate? Have a yard sale? Sell on eBay?

 Goodwill, freecycle, friends, family sometimes the curb. You'd be surprised what people from freecycle will pick up, just about anything.

If they are worth something, we sell them on craigslist.

If they aren't worth anything, we see if any friends want them. If they don't want them, we donate them or give them away on freecycle or craigslist.

If they are in decent shape I donate them to one of them many charities that collect stuff for others. Some things like kids clothes and toys I pass on to my younger nieces and nephews.

We give them away.  There's a church down the road that has a lot of rummage sales and they keep a bin outside so people can drop off their donations. 

When I have a friend with a child younger than mine, I'll give them the clothes my kids have grown out of.

For most things, I take them to the Rescue Mission Center where they give people things they need and sell other things to be able to provide them with other things they need. For other things, I do sell them on eBay. I'd love to have a big yard sale, but we live off the beaten path and the neighbors' sales have never had much traffic.

Sell them on craigslist or have a yard sale if the are in good condition.  My SO sells some things on Ebay as well.

I am constantly taking bags and boxes to the thrift store.  I love to donate stuff to charity and get it out of my house as quickly as possible!

Donate... usually I put them in a corner of the garage.  Our church has 2 rummage sales a year, so I take them al there.
