Starting Your Rightsizing Adventure





                         Get started early.  Even if you are

                         months away from selling your home, it’s

                         never too early to start organizing and

                         purging.
                         Organize while you pack.  Consider

                         making piles for packing, selling, or

                         donating.

                         Prioritize items you’re taking with you.

                         Have you used it in the last year?  If the

                         answer is no, it might be time to donate
                         or get rid of it.

                         Determine how much space or square

                         footage you will need for your new home.

                         Determine whether your existing

                         furniture will fit into your new space.

                         Consider your lifestyle.  What do you
                         truly need to take with you?  Now is the

                         time to simplify your life.

                         Donate, donate, donate!  Use this

                         opportunity to help less fortunate people

                         in your community by donating your
                         gently used items.

                         Get rid of paperwork you no longer need.

                         If you have documents you want to have

                         a copy of, consider have them scanned

                         into a thumb drive or uploading them
                         into your online storage drive/cloud.

                         Consult with loved ones for special items

                         they may want to have for their home.
