Moving would be easy were it not for all the tchotchkes you end up schlepping along. What better way to lighten your load than by having a moving sale? Five Cent Nickel has several tips to help your extra stuff move:
Separate out anything that's easily eBay-able;
Advertise, advertise, advertise;
Price your stuff to sell;
As much as possible, price things by category;
Build in bulk discounts;
Check any and all pockets before putting an item out for sale;
Be prepared to negotiate;
Get your kids involved;
Donate whatever doesn't sell.
Remember that unlike a yard sale, the goal of a moving sale is to empty your house, not fill your pockets. — CAREY GREENBERG-BERGER
