Tony, remember that one man's junk is another man's treasure. Rather than fill the landfill with your unwanted stuff, you should remind the kids to come take what they want and then have a "garage" sale there in the garage. Perfect time since you've moved, you don't need to worry about privacy. We know that you have a kind heart and we'd all love to see how many people that you could bless.
That is really smart that Jenny built time in to get the new house ready and go through all the stuff at the old house. We have so much junk in this house after living here over 30 years. That includes stuff from both our kids who moved out. We need to start purging, but it is sort of overwhelming.
I own at least 454 LEGO sets (per my Brickset inventory). I used to save the boxes. I had stacks of flattened boxes stored in various corners of the house. Then one day I asked myself a question: "What are they for?". I'm never going to sell my sets, so I'll never need the boxes to enhance resale values. They are just something to store and take up room. So they all went into the recycle bin. Every last one of them. I'm about to smash my new UCS Tie Interceptor box into the recycle bin. For those who say you should keep the boxes, ask them how much they'll pay you for them. No one really wants them.
There is no used LEGO box market. No one wants them. It's just cardboard for recycling. If you were correct, there would be empty boxes for sale on Ebay - and there aren't any boxes for sale on Ebay.
Kept the boxes, huh? I'm not one to gloat . . . or pat myself on the back . . . just the knowledge that I helped guide you in the right direction is enough for me.
Don't forget the final walk through the house. Check the cupboards and drawers. I found a couple of important items lurking at the back of cupboards in our last move. The garage sale is a good idea. When clearing out our family home, we also gifted stuff to assorted family members who would use it, donated tools to the local Men's Shed, and then to charity. They actually collected a truck load of the bigger items. There was a lot that sadly still wound up in the trash, but the bulk of things found new homes.
I’ve moved 2x in last year. It hurt to see some of my stuff go. But it needed to happen for downsizing. I’m not settled yet, but hoping to get there. Keep up the hard work and best of luck.
Jenny B is the bomb! I really didn’t realize the amount of LEGO you have. Caaaaarraaazy good. Awww. I recognize the kitchen where you did some shows. OMG. The caricature is adorable. Two dumpsters! I thought I had baggage. lol. Good job. Glad you are keeping the boxes.. Wait hot! Hotter than in AZ today. You are so organized. I think the garage must be a fluke. Ha. Hydrate, rest. ❤
Have a garage sale.. that will give you some "coin" for when you cruise. It can be overwhelming moving. You both need a break. Love the picture of you and Jenny. You got a lot moved in the heat. Safe travel's tomorrow! Thank you for sharing ❤
Tony, I am enjoying your move more than the two we are in the midst of-my sons are both moving out! It’s all very exciting for us and for you as well I am sure. I also have all of my parents’ stuff in my house that my brother and I will be going through soon. My folks are from Cali-enjoy your trip there!
Good idea w using the tv box for the Lego boxes. Are u taking any Lego on your cruise. Have a great cruise and get some rest. Moving is so stressful. U guys got this almost done woo hoo
Take photis of what you've got in your storage room. Just saw someone had a heap if lego stolen and they're having hassles with the insurance company. Photos are goid and easy proof of what was in there.
Have a great trip and enjoy the cooler weather. Today are high in California is 85 low of 59 and humidity 26%. You and Jenny Both Deserve sometime without moving all those boxes.
Hi Tony, don't sweat it brother you'll get there, little by little look how much you guys already accomplished and you still find time to make great videos, take care brother, take your lovely wife out to a nice dinner, and have a great time on your West Coast Cruise, God Bless you all.
If I may make a suggestion?? Down the road you may want to put plastic over the shelving units with the exposed LEGO if you plan on using that storage unit for an extended period of time?? You will be surprised how much dust can collect in those storage units. This can be done down the road after the move. I think you will be happy you did. Again this is just a suggestion. Thanks
At least you don’t keep your printer on the floor. Only a crazy person would do that. Congrats on the new crib. I grew up near Syracuse what you’d go up here for?
Tony can Jenny B teach my wife her ways!! I would love it if my wife told me to go on a cruise to get away from stress. Also. Was that an overdue video from Blockbuster?
If you ever sell it, a buyer might prefer it come in the original box along with original instruction booklet. It may mean a few extra bucks on the sale.
I hear you about renting an outdated house. Same here. We wanted to retire in Florida but it may be too late…congested and cost. We will be facing a purge in the future. Donate wherever possible and remember you can’t take it with you. Enjoy California our backyard! 🛳️😊

Hello Tony, your record collection would be very difficult to locate anything as everything would be filed under Ludacris (shout out Luda)

I'm willing to buy your boxes, anytime. Rather than fill the landfill, you should offer up the boxes. They do have value.
There is no used LEGO box market. No one wants them. It's just cardboard for recycling. If you were correct, there would be empty boxes for sale on Ebay - and there aren't any boxes for sale on Ebay.
Building Legos on the cruise? Here's to hoping. Can't wait to see the finished Eiffel tower in time for the Olympics. Thanks for your entertainment.
The LEGO room is looking good... and now the LEGO storage room, wow... 🎉

Wow Tony, you guys are doing it right! Giving yourselves plenty of time to get everything done. Smart
You may want to invest in some tarps to keep dust and water off of those sets & boxes. Those units are notoriously famous for leaking.
I’ve moved 2x in last year. It hurt to see some of my stuff go. But it needed to happen for downsizing. I’m not settled yet, but hoping to get there. Keep up the hard work and best of luck.
I had cleaners too. Best idea.
Best wishes with the new house. Very Happy for you. Good decision with the Lego boxes. You’ll be happy you saved them.

Clever idea with the TV box!
Great choice
Thanks for the vlog
Good idea w using the tv box for the Lego boxes. Are u taking any Lego on your cruise. Have a great cruise and get some rest. Moving is so stressful. U guys got this almost done woo hoo
I didn’t bring any with me, but I have a full day in Cali. to find some.
Your doing a great job, glad you guys have extra time from going to house A to house B but you could use some help, good luck
Take photis of what you've got in your storage room. Just saw someone had a heap if lego stolen and they're having hassles with the insurance company. Photos are goid and easy proof of what was in there.
Been there. Totally understand. I have stuff from our old and big homes. My parents big home and brothers in my tiny house..
When in Cali go to Legoland if you've never been.
You’re going to be happy you kept them
Furniture is easy to move, but it everything else that takes time. Junk drawers, closets etc. good luck Jenny B and Tony.
Have a great trip and enjoy the cooler weather. Today are high in California is 85 low of 59 and humidity 26%. You and Jenny Both Deserve sometime without moving all those boxes.

I had a Lego commercial while watching this episode lol😂
I sure hope that storage unit has security. You have a big investment in there. Lol
You are definitely a certified hoarder! 😂😂
Can I get a certificate somewhere? 😂😂😂
@@locabricks I hid it in your storage locker. 🤣🤣
Great choice I have a tote full of bobble head boxes just in case I decide to sell them
one box at time and before you know it you are done
Tony, if I am able to retire. I would move to FL. We just do not know where in FL.
You need to put double locks on door and an air twg on 😮inside of door so you know if someone is messing with Largo collection.

We had to attend an event in Oswego.
Enjoy your new home
Oh thank god.
yay 🎉 to keeping the boxes
This was fun. Thanks, Tony. Today is Billy Joel's 75th birthday. :)
Shout out Luda, or Billy? 😂
You could open a Lego Store
Tony can Jenny B teach my wife her ways!! I would love it if my wife told me to go on a cruise to get away from stress. Also. Was that an overdue video from Blockbuster?
Almost done!!!
I like the computer chair.
Hi Tony, Just was wondering on your first tour of you new Lego room you said that you were going to be putting in a Murphy bed has that changed?
Yes. We found some well reviewed air mattresses that deploy on a frame. I can roll the build table out.
Maybe Jenny's brother could help
just load the car up with the trash and put it in the dumpster since your paying for the dumpster no matter how full it is.

Tony, I know this is off topic... buy what software/app do you use to create your videos?
Final Cut Pro
@@locabricks thank you!! Keep up the great videos
How do I keep track of what you have?
There are a few websites that allow you track your collection. Brickset is one.
When did Legos become collectables?
I think for a while, of course the rise of the internet and social media has allowed for enthusiasts to better connect.
I hope when your mom moved to Florida she is near your new house not near your rental.
Moving is hard! 🙄
I threw away mine…..only keeping the ones that are not put together….why do you need a box for a completed LEGO?
If you ever sell it, a buyer might prefer it come in the original box along with original instruction booklet. It may mean a few extra bucks on the sale.
@@jamesbell7696 I recycled my boxes because I realized I'm never going to sell my sets.
@@jamesbell7696 Value difference is HUGE. People want to buy LEGO in a box.
I hear you about renting an outdated house. Same here. We wanted to retire in Florida but it may be too late…congested and cost. We will be facing a purge in the future. Donate wherever possible and remember you can’t take it with you. Enjoy California our backyard! 🛳️😊
