I am shifting from my house to bigger one.
What is the best ideas to get rid of things u do not want any more.
How to promote your used things to others!!!
Garage sale is not very much common here.
Any bright ideas friends?

Give to your local school. I recently did this with colored papers
that were of art quality.

do you have charities in your area that use recycle clothing etc - helps the needy and also clears your left overs or not wanted stuff - good luck with move - it is the hardest thing to do

Do you have thrift shops in Jordan? If you do you could always donate unwanted items there. I do not know much about other countries and what is available but try asking around you might be surprised at who might take these items off your hands.

well I checked and they do not have Craigslist in Jordan! There are a couple of Freecycle sites but not much activity.
