Selling things can be a real pain. If you hold yourself to it, it can be a deterrent to buying. You think "Ill have to sell this someday" and all of a sudden, you dont want to buy it anymore. ☺
I've been down this road! Thinking my items are worth something to someone.. but actually the time and stress involved is too much to handle for me anymore. I love donating now.
We had a garage sale - lots of furniture, lamps, purses, gems, etc - 10 years ago before moving into a much smaller house. I learned that I didn’t like seeing people take away my things. I much preferred dropping them off at donation centers, where I never saw who took my things. And I hated the way I felt when someone offered half of the value I’d put on an item. Just give the stuff away and bless somebody!
Sometimes we can't drive ,have chronic anxiety with going to ups and sending things out..all good intentions but it's a relief to just let items go to trash or Anywhere one can get to to donate. Grazie for the permission ❤
Paperwork is usually dreadful to go through because it's so tedious and causes a lot of decision fatigue to look at each and every piece of paper. I used your tip to make decluttering more comfortable by bringing it to my couch and watching TV with my partner at the same time. It would have been hell (and maybe not completed) if I had been in a room by myself with no comfort or entertainment. There were times when I painfully sat on a hard floor going through bins when I could've brought them to a bed or couch to be comfortable during the process.
The day I decided to stop trying to sell things to make some money off the “waste” of getting rid of things, was the day I really started making progress. There has been so much value to getting rid of
What helps in deciding to sell or donate: how much time would you spend to sell something and what is your hourly rate in your job. I love that you mention not to donate TRASH! I worked with a donation center and they waste so much time throwing away dirty or broken things
Everything you tell us is so realistic. I love that. It actually makes me stop in my tracks, think about it, and then say she is so right. The part about trying to sell items is far too frustrating. Thank you for the enlightenment. 🌍☮️🌲
Hi Sarah, Happy New Year! I have been trying to become more minimal for years with slow but sure progress. In 2024 I FINALLY achieved a milestone. I have tried to complete the month long minimalism game for years but always fell short and stopped before completing. My husband does not like to get rid of anything so I was limited to things that were mine and I would talk myself out of finishing thinking if he did not declutter, it would not make a difference. Well, I completed 31 days today, decluttering just my possessions and I feel great. The house feels cleaner and more spacious as do the closets, cupboards and drawers. I just had to share this victory with someone and encourage anyone who is in a similar circumstance to go for it!
When living with roommates (or spouse/kids) who do not embrace minimalism (they’re slobs and the stress is getting to you), the only thing I’ve found that works is putting blinders on, and only paying attention to my stuff. My bathroom, my office, my closet, my car…
A system that works for me with textiles is that I have some small collapsible laundry baskets that I use as a recycle, donate or reuse pile (I am a sewer). Anything shoddy goes straight to recycling, useable goes to donate and certain fabrics I need for particular projects goes into the third basket. The baskets are intentionally small so that they must be emptied regularly. It works for me. I have less clutter in my wardrobe.
Great video, great advice. It is so much easier to take a drawer at a time rather than the whole kitchen. Keeping a designated donate spot. I have also found that all the time trying to recoup dollars by selling items is not worth it. I donate to thrift shop where funds go help the local animal shelter. I want to give them so much more since it is helping pets in need. Thank you for your years of great advice!
I separate clothing, towels, and other fabric items that have stains, rips, or would just not sell and I bag them as recycle. St. Vincent DePaul takes this to be recycled. Hefty has a new program in several states to recycle normally non recycle items such as plastic straws, drink cups, Styrofoam, fruit and vegetable bags, cereal box liners, pet food bags, plus almost all plastic film. Now my recycle bin goes out every week and my trash only goes out to the landfill every 3-4 weeks.
This is my 1st video & it won't be the last, great advice. I usually skim through some videos. I watched with entusasim, she is a excellent communicator & very calming. I am desperately trying to let go of items. I've been shown a easier way to tackle my cluttered room. Thank you. Very stress free
Totally agree with the "donate not sell" approach. Only worth it for expensive items, not for small stuff. In my neighbourhood we put stuff in boxes next to the pavement and everyone takes what they like. Not exactly legal, but it works.
The hacks you share are helpful. I have used most all of them. Doing 2023 year end paper review/declutter so I grabbed a stack from the bin and brought them to the dining room table and a comfortable chair, pleasant area and the sun is shining. I chose to watch your video as a reward for reviewing them. Then, in real time, you recommend taking things to a comfortable spot and limiting the time spent :) 💕
Thanks for talking about not donating garbage! Its so important to mention. Sometimes its really better to just throw things away (and buy more intentional next time!). And if you are donating to an organization, always ask what they need first, dont just dump your stuff for them to deal with. Great video👏🏻👏🏻 I never declutter without entertainment 😂
Such an enlightening comment about trying to sell stuff!! It's not so good as other people make it out to be. Just hard work and frustrating for very little reward
I did go through some drawers before Christmas. I found a nice tart baking dish I never used don’t remember how long I had it… Christmas gift along with some rose tea
All good advice. I will have a house full of guests in 3 months. My goal is to use up everything in the house that I can, including food, until that time. I’m on a no buy phase.
A friend is moving soon and said she was donating her much used tupperware to the Thrift Store. I was surprised. Who wants to buy very used tupperware?
Such sensible advice pointed out. I started decluttering my room since early Jan, bit by bit as didn't want to overwhelm myself. This has become somewhat of a mantra for me now - removing FOMO, embracing JOMO :)
Agree. Selling my things is not an option for me since it took a lot of effort. What i do is i gave it away to those i think most need it. And one thing is it gives joy to me whenever i saw them smile while giving my things and that's serve as payment for me.
Today I worked a small very cluttered area. 10 minutes was what it took! Even vacuuming it. Hubby hated it as he watched. He hates changing any habit. ❤❤❤❤ yay!
When we started decluttering, we played trash or treasure. We started with one box. It was exciting to clean out that box. The next day we did two boxes. We got into it and ended up decluttering that room in less than two weeks. The buyer wants a great bargain. The seller just wants to get rid of it. Donating is so much less effort.
Hi Sarah, I resell all the time & do well with sales but you do need to enjoy it as it is hard work sometimes, so if you haven't got much to sell then your right it's not worth it. 😊
Happy new year, Sarah! I'm slowly trying to get back into some decluttering after a total stinker of a year. I have now got my teaching resources down to a Doc Martens box, plus a box of my favourite children's storybooks. I was also holding onto a folder detailing a reading programme I implemented in 2006!! I finally shredded it all and got rid of the folder in late 2023. It felt great and I have no regrets about getting rid. I hope the start of 2024 has been kind to you and Jake. 😊
I see this do just a tiny bit at a time thing constantly but I don't get how anyone can stand that. When I realized I wanted to be minimal, I tore through my house & got it done. I could not imagine having that project hanging over my head for literal years. I'd just go crazy. I needed to just get it done and be done. I guess do whatever works for you but the thought that I couldn't just do it and be finished would've deterred me from ever even starting. I'm a get it done and over with right now kind of girl. Lol
Oh I want to add though I do love your videos and still get lots of great advice from them. I've watched tons of them over the last few years. I also totally see the value in what you're saying. That specific method just isn't for me. But a lot of your other ideas are. Also, I think that once the big declutter is over, this method definitely helps me with maintaining. 😊
Yes I love your ideas as well. I do have some different avenues for selling stuff and I have made money although it takes some effort and time on Facebook marketplace as well as when my town has its town wide garage sale days where everyone who wants to have a garage sale has it at the same time which draws more people in etc etc. Then I'm lucky that if nothing else I can take it to our church circulation day where we put out everything for free and then you just let it go to ever need something and that's very satisfying.
You popped up at exactly the right time once again, Sarah! I’m doing a total restart in so many ways - at the moment just 15 minutes of extra organizing/sorting/decluttering every day. Have been off the track for more than a year 🙈 Thank you so much for continuously motivating me 🙏🏽❤️
Selling an item is so much trouble now days. Something to think about when bringing that item toba location-dangerous. Mailing an item-more money. Just let it go. Call an organization to pick it up. Its ok. Trying to make money at a garage sale is crazy. The people who are there want it for free. It takes days to organize it and watch it then your still left with your stuff. Throw it out or donate it.
I agree that donating is easy and faster at ridding yourself of the clutter. I have a friend who does have high end items and she is successful at selling them more times than not, however she has invested a lot of time over the years perfecting how she does it and the items can sit in her house/garage for months before she lists them. But, it works for her - but not for me. I want it gone immediately to feel the reward of the decluttering. And, I can write off values on my taxes, which takes less time to value.
Sarah great video but I wanted to add......if you sell locally on neighborhood sites for eg. you can recoup a lot of the amount you initially spent on the items with no shipping required.. We have moved 9 times and we actually were very pleased at the results! And we do donate as well.
That's awesome, Lynda! We tried that when moving this summer and sadly sold nothing during six weeks, even for low prices, so we just gave things away for free instead. I'm glad it worked for you guys though!
Love your video!! I've got lots of clothes and I kept them to sell it but at the end, I never made time to do it... You're right. It takes so much work to sell something unless it's a luxury item... Thank you! I really needed to hear this! Happy new year! I've just subscribed your channel so I'm really looking forward to hearing more tips on decluttering and being more minimalist!❤
Such refreshing and smart suggestions! I took about 10 minutes today and found four items that I haven't used in ages or never even opened. They make great donations and it feels great! I mean, I won't miss them at all! Someone else will hopefully use them. We need to do this much more. Thanks for a great channel!
Sempre achei melhor doar do que vender. Vender muitas vezes toma muito tempo e nem sempre encontramos alguém que queira o produto, ficando parado por muito tempo. Prefiro doar, assim me livro logo do objeto indesejado.
Ugh i made a couple thousand selling but i still have like 400 items of clothing on sale. I'm so sick of it and just want to take it all to Plato's closet
Well, all that time wasted on reselling things is making me now think ten times before i buy something. I think everyone should go through it for a good lesson.
Along the lines of not donating junk, many years ago I lived in a great neighborhood in which to have garage sales. I invited a friend to bring some stuff over to sell. I was mortified to see some of the junk that she brought. I had to have a "reality" chat with her and told her she just needed to throw some things away. How is your new house coming along?
It's going well! They are on pause for the winter but the foundation is all completed. The frame will start in February or March depending on the weather!
Traditions are nice for older people. When you get people just flick them off like a piece of dust it kinda hurts older parents and grandparents feelings.
I do a fast 15 minute tidy twice a day - one just before bed. Set my timer and put all little odds and ends back in their homes. It doesn’t need to be declutterring but it will show you where new items have accumulated and don’t have a home or clutter rubbish has accumulated in areas. It’s been a good habit to get into (for me anyway).
Sometimes people actually need the extra cash for whatever reason and you can sell in local groups. I think you are being narrow minded and shouldn’t push so strongly to donate because you have no idea someone’s reason to purge or declutter.
Very good points! I have several videos about selling items and how to do it, but as this video is about lazy minimalism hacks, donating is a "lazier" option than selling.
It is definitely looks more cluttered than we'd like, as we are in a temporary living situation while our home is built. The new kitchen will be three times the size, so we can't wait for it to look nice and open!

I felt the same at my last rummage sale.
Thanks! I thought I'm the only one who felt this way. Glad to know there's people who don't like to know where and how their belongings go.
This works well for people suffering w chronic pain & depression who arent Lazy but rather have limited ability.
I love these suggestions! ❤
Thank you so much!

You are so right about selling things, it can be a pain. I have just put a time limit on my things to sell and will donate in a couple of months.
Very good tips and your video pace is nice, not to fast not to slow. A great tip people forget id not donating trash
Thank you 🙏. You just gave me a reality check about all the unworn clothes I’ve been planning to sell for months 😂
A friend is moving soon and said she was donating her much used tupperware to the Thrift Store. I was surprised. Who wants to buy very used tupperware?
So happy to see you doing videos! I don't know why but I haven't seen any from you lately. My crazy feed!! You have always been a favorite!!
Thank you, Susan! You are so kind!
Really liked your tips! Very grounded and more unique ideas. :)
So much good advice contained in this video. Worth taking 10mins out of your day!

Happy New Year to you too, Gemma! Congrats on simplifying your teaching resources and those story books! What a huge accomplishment!
Great tips! Loved that you touched upon digital and mentally cluttering, too!
Thank you, Jamie!

Sarah Happy New Year to Jake and you. Thank you for the great hacks. It makes decluttering a lot easier. Hugs ❤
Happy new year to you both as well!
Thank you.
You popped up at exactly the right time once again, Sarah!
I’m doing a total restart in so many ways - at the moment just 15 minutes of extra organizing/sorting/decluttering every day. Have been off the track for more than a year 🙈
Thank you so much for continuously motivating me 🙏🏽❤️
You've got this, Iris! Taking time off is helpful because then we can come back where we left off in an improved way or with a fresh perspective!
Agreed!
Your advice is always practical. Thanks for continuing to make videos.

Welcome to the channel! I'm glad it was helpful!
It's been a long while, nice to be back watching. 0:42
Great advice - thank you! 🤓
You are so welcome!
thank you so much.these tips are really helpful!
I'm so glad to hear it!
I used a couple of this tips whilst watching this clip!
That is great to hear!
Such refreshing and smart suggestions! I took about 10 minutes today and found four items that I haven't used in ages or never even opened. They make great donations and it feels great! I mean, I won't miss them at all! Someone else will hopefully use them. We need to do this much more. Thanks for a great channel!
Well done! That is wonderful!
“Don’t donate garbage” YES!!! So many people use donation centers as free garbage dumping grounds. It’s terrible.
Thx so much 4 the tips. Can't wait to try them
Glad you like them!
Happy New Year Sarah. Thanks for another good one 👍 Make it easier 🙌 Use up what you already have, you bought it to use after all 😂 Choose less 😊
Happy New Year to you Sandra! Yes to all of that!
Happy New Year…great advice …that’s what I do now 10 / 15 minutes several times a day or week 😊❤️
Happy New Year, Francine! I'm so glad!
Thanks for this video
Great tips! Thank you for this video.
You are so welcome!
Great video thanks
You're welcome, Stephanie!
Sempre achei melhor doar do que vender. Vender muitas vezes toma muito tempo e nem sempre encontramos alguém que queira o produto, ficando parado por muito tempo. Prefiro doar, assim me livro logo do objeto indesejado.
Thanks, very good common sense advice.
You are very welcome!
such a good video omg
Also so many scammers acting like they are buying.
Ugh i made a couple thousand selling but i still have like 400 items of clothing on sale. I'm so sick of it and just want to take it all to Plato's closet
Wonderful hacks as always 😊
Glad you like them!
10:30 "Don't should yourself" 😀
Well, all that time wasted on reselling things is making me now think ten times before i buy something. I think everyone should go through it for a good lesson.
Great point!
Along the lines of not donating junk, many years ago I lived in a great neighborhood in which to have garage sales. I invited a friend to bring some stuff over to sell. I was mortified to see some of the junk that she brought. I had to have a "reality" chat with her and told her she just needed to throw some things away. How is your new house coming along?
It's going well! They are on pause for the winter but the foundation is all completed. The frame will start in February or March depending on the weather!
Everyone is different from the other and it may work for you.
Traditions are nice for older people. When you get people just flick them off like a piece of dust it kinda hurts older parents and grandparents feelings.
I tried the 10 minute thing it doesn't work, it's just not enough time and after a while you just give up.
I do a fast 15 minute tidy twice a day - one just before bed. Set my timer and put all little odds and ends back in their homes. It doesn’t need to be declutterring but it will show you where new items have accumulated and don’t have a home or clutter rubbish has accumulated in areas. It’s been a good habit to get into (for me anyway).

Thank you!
Do you have a kindle book?
I do not. Sorry about that!
I'm in utter disbelief. I found something similar, and it was truly remarkable. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
if you have no money and got time, then it is worth selling.
☮️🌎🌲
Sometimes people actually need the extra cash for whatever reason and you can sell in local groups. I think you are being narrow minded and shouldn’t push so strongly to donate because you have no idea someone’s reason to purge
or declutter.
Very good points! I have several videos about selling items and how to do it, but as this video is about lazy minimalism hacks, donating is a "lazier" option than selling.
Donating garbage 🗑 is not kind!
your kitchen looks cluttered
It is definitely looks more cluttered than we'd like, as we are in a temporary living situation while our home is built. The new kitchen will be three times the size, so we can't wait for it to look nice and open!
