Arrange for a Garage sale:

Garage sale is an easy means of putting your unwanted items for sale. Arrange the display in an open area, so that, your house will be saved from the thronging of huge crowds.

Place an ad in the local newspaper along with the timings allotted for the people to visit. Holding the sale during weekends will attract more visitors. Attach labels and price tags for all the items along with the user manuals or other brochures related to them.
