- Promote your unwanted items on social networking sites such as BuySwapSell or on your Facebook page and make some money!
- Post a notice up at your work or on community notice board advertising your item(s).
- Sell your item(s) online on sites such as eBay and Gumtree or advertise in the local paper.
- Post your items on a reuse website such as Freecycle.
- Hold a garage sale and enjoy the social perks of meeting locals.
