Often, people don’t realize how much clutter they have until they move. While some of it can be reorganized, the majority of it is best thrown out. Renting a dumpster is a convenient way to get rid of unwanted items in your home before a move. Make a list based on the recommendations below to clear out the junk you don’t want to transport to your new place.

What Can You Do Without in Your New Home?

1. Unused & Mismatched Cookware

Random dishes, old appliances, and other cookware that doesn’t fit in or get used can usually go to the dumpster. These items will only take up valuable kitchen space in your new home. Throwing them away gives you an opportunity to invest in new products that will get more use.

2. Loose Papers

When cleaning out your home office or closets, sort through loose papers. These are often disorganized, and if you haven’t needed them recently, they’re likely no longer relevant. If you feel they may be important one day, scan them onto your computer for safekeeping. Toss junk mail, old receipts, manuals, old magazines or newspapers, or random notes into the dumpster.

3. Old Makeup & Bath Products

If your vanity is packed with half-used makeup products, sort through your collection. Products that haven’t been used in at least six months should go in the trash. This also includes lotions, shampoos, soaps, and related products that can’t be donated. Include expired vitamins and medications as well.

4. Paint & Hobby Products

Old cans of paint won’t be of use at your new house, so move them to a dumpster. Include any aged varnishes or other chemicals that the waste management company approves. Never flush these. They’re non-soluble and may damage your septic system. Include old paintbrushes and hobby tools that won’t get used again.
