The Sale’s Over… But the Stuff Isn’t
Hosting a garage sale feels great… until you’re left with everything that didn’t sell. Clothes, toys, furniture, and odds and ends pile up fast. The good news? You’ve already done the hardest part — sorting through it all. Now it’s time to clear it out for good.
Whether you’re decluttering your home, downsizing, or just ready for a clean slate, there are smart (and easy) ways to deal with garage sale leftovers — donate, recycle, or call 1-800-JUNKPRO® for a quick pickup.
1. Donate What’s Still in Good Shape
Most charities and thrift stores gladly accept gently used household items, clothing, and toys.
-
Local shelters and churches often take household goods and kids’ items.
-
Thrift stores like Goodwill or Habitat ReStore accept small furniture, décor, and tools.
-
Schools and community centers may accept books, sports gear, or storage bins.
If you’re short on time or items are too large to haul yourself, 1-800-JUNKPRO® can pick up and deliver donations whenever possible.
2. Recycle What You Can
Cardboard boxes, electronics, and scrap metal shouldn’t go to the landfill.
-
Flatten cardboard boxes for recycling pickup.
-
Drop off electronics (old TVs, computers) at e-waste facilities.
-
Recycle scrap metal like bikes or shelving units at local yards.
