(Garbage) Bags & Containers


“For most of the sorting, I'd suggest plastic bags in three colors: black for true garbage, blue for giveaway, and clear or white for stuff you think you want to keep or sell. (Clear is good, if you can find them in large sizes; I think that if you searched online you could find them. It would be worth the expense because you can see what's in the bag without having to open and rifle through it.) Get strong, reinforced bags so you can put lots of stuff in them.”

“If you're trying organize things, filling plastic storage containers/tubs, go to a craft store like Michaels and get a 'china marker'. It's that waxy kind of pencil that will mark on plastic but not permanently. This is maybe a petty thing to think about, but we spent a lot of money on plastic tubs and it seemed stupid to mark them all permanently."

You'll get frustrated, ...go with it, take it out on the piles
