What are you planning to do with the loads of junk that got piled up in your basement over the years? Be it your crockery, the cartons of books you have been collecting; you might not want to carry it overseas; so, what do you do?

What if, if you find takers for the junk you are planning to dispose off? It would be better if you can give them away in charity or else sell them off to the needy. Selling the goods will not only reduce the number of items that need to be moved but also will help you in earning few extra bucks.

Well in advance of the move, you need to plan how you are going to sell your items. Selling online would be ideal for you need not put up a banner outside your home and wait for the customers to walk up to you.

Several sites and forums are available online (e.g. e-bay) to allow you get rid of your unwanted goods. On those sites you can sell, auction, meet other sellers and even exchange the goods, as per your choice.

Online auctions are the easiest means of freeing yourself from disposable goods. Place an ad online listing out the items for sale. It will draw the attention of many when compared to an ad in the local news papers.

Give them the description of the item and other details like where you bought it, how old the item is, the year of its manufacture, design, model etc. Uploading a picture of the item will lure more people to buy it. All such details will help the buyers in deciding the value of the item and thus bid appropriately.

You can have your own set of rules about selling the items. You can fix your own price and choose the payment option as well. You can wait till you get the right bid. If your item has more number of takers, then, you are likely to get good price on its sale.

When somebody offers to buy your item, verify their buying record by contacting other sellers online. You don't want to sell your precious antique to a smuggler right!

In case, you are selling an item of high value, you can even request the services of an escrow agent. The agent will act as a witness to the transaction who will make the payment once the item reaches the buyer.
