I'm in the process of this right now after my DH passing last month from COPD. I'm in a 2000 sf mobile home and moving to a 900 sf 2 bdrm apartment. It's amazing when you start cleaning things out how much you just don't need anymore. I'm watching all the great tips here so it will help my move easier. I'm taking the larger bedroom for my sewing room which needs more space anyway LOL
Good luck on your downsizing project too!!!
