We've sold a few things on Craigslist but since our community doesn't allow garage sales and the only way I could have an estate sale would be if I shuttled people to the house since the city won't allow on street parking, we were stuck. The shuttle wouldn't work since nothing we are selling would warrant the expense. I found a really neat charity, a shelter that helps abused women and children. They will pick up items and they are given to the women that are trying to start over. Anything that is not taken is sold and the money is used to help the families. It feels good to give gently used furniture to a good cause, knowing that you are helping someone definitely offsets the amount of money that is lost by not selling it.
