when we moved to Florida (from VA) we needed to get rid of some large items so we tacked that early on. I took photos of the items that I wanted to sell, posted them on Craig's list (very easy and no charge). I sold my dining room set, a large sofa, a tall filing cabinet, amongst other things within a week's time. I just had to make sure I was home to show items. Some of our tools (including shovels) were the first things to go when we had a one-day garage sale. Then we researched places that would pick up donations (some allowed us to schedule pick-up days via the web). Good luck with the move.
