Hi Nonie,

We went from 4,100 sq ft to 1,680 sq ft. Cleared out 49 years worth of stuff. Turns out it was pretty easy. I donated everything appropriate (like my business suits) and then contacted a local auctioneer. They actually came in, put everything into "lots", took pictures and had an online auction. Everything went smoothly. Kinda like eBay. I do admit, however, that it was a little difficult to see some of the items leave the house. But it was a small price to pay to move here!

Good luck!
