Yard Sale vs. Storage Rental
When cleaning up around the house, you’ll come across some things that are in the way. You have a couple of options to clean this mess, storage, yard sale, or the garbage. To make things easier, here’s a list of pros and cons for each option.
- Yard Sale
- Pros
- You can make a profit from what you don’t want anymore
- In a way, you’re giving back to your community

- You can sell food and drinks on the side for extra revenue
- You won’t have to worry about shipping, like Amazon or eBay
- Cons
- You might not be able to sell everything
- You could get haggled for your items
- eBay buyers could offer a better deal
- If you don’t know the value of your items and you sell them at the wrong price
- If you feel you made a mistake selling an item, you’ll have to negotiate to get it back.
- In some towns, you’ll need a permit to have a yard sale
- Facebook Marketplace is more convenient and gives you a boarder range of buyers.
