Sorting and purging is part of most moves. Although this makes the move easier because you don’t have to pack, load, and unpack items you don’t need, you are left with one minor problem: what do you do with all the stuff you are leaving behind?
Local residential movers in Sioux Falls have some suggestions that you might be glad to consider!
Before you throw away unwanted items, consider donating them to local organizations that purchase gently used items and resale them at an affordable price for area families in need.
