Love It or List It --- Get A Dumpster!



Whether you are getting your home ready to sell or not planning a move at all, you would certainly benefit by de-cluttering/de-junking your home.

We recently went through the de-junking exercise, having a 10 yard dumpster delivered to our home. Atomic Roll-Off delivered it and the cost was $180. We were able to keep the dumpster for a week, but chose to really motivate ourselves and only have it for 2 days. After the first day we had filled the dumpster maybe 1/4 full and I thought we would be lucky to make it to the halfway mark. Knowing we only had one more day we went into overdrive. Should I or shouldn't I --- if I had to think about it more than a couple of seconds, it went into the dumpster. As you can see from the photo, we made it way past halfway, in fact it was full! 



Three trips to donate items to the thrift store benefiting Animal Lifeline of Iowa occurred during the two days as well.
So, go through that attic, crawl space, closets, basement, and donate or pitch those things you just don't need or use. It will be like a load has been lifted off your shoulders --- I promise!

Great idea --- if you can't fill a dumpster on your own, or think the cost is a bit steep, share with your neighbor.
