How brutal are you with chucking things out?

I think for 15 bin bags I'd get rid especially if it's mixed ages in each bag.

Although, I've noticed a lot of bags passed onto my son have things which must have come in sets or are on a similar theme. So for the future, if you get one bag at a time, you could sort the clothes into same-but-different pairs and your DT take it in turns to pick first.
For odd things you could see if you can get a duplicate off vinted if special or keep as a spare if it's boring but useful.

I am brutal. But not with small kid stuff. I think you just have to accept things as chaos for a few years.

I grew up in a house of endless stuff. As an adult I'm totally minimalistic

I've just sorted through loads of clothes, most of which I've never worn because either I've gone off them, they don't suit me, or don't fit well. I cannot be bothered with the faffing of selling things on Vinted or anywhere else. Charity shops can have the lot.

I give mine all to charity shops. Selling/giving away is such a PITA because the general public are so rude, disorganised and entitled.

Can't be bothered to sell stuff, trying desperately to get rid of books and clothes and been clearing the top of my wardrobe today ready for decorating next week. Tesco conveniently have a Barnardos charity shop inside as well as a community bookcase and clothing banks in the car park so lots of stuff has gone there today.

I never bother selling stuff. I just think “how much time will this take up?”.

Is it worth spending hours photographing, uploading, replying to dozens of messages, waiting around for it to be collected or posting it for £20? No it is not.

If there’s a car boot sale where you sell as much as you can in one day it might be worth it but otherwise no.

that's not super helfpul, I could totally use 300 pairs of shoes and handbags! maybe not on the same day...

I need harsher criteria than "things I use"

I've got 7 year old twins in a 2 bed flat, so I can't allow things to build up, so a) don't buy excessive toys and clothes and b) clear things out when they either no longer fit or are not used/played with.
Our flat still feels cluttered, but that's because...it's tiny!

Declutter declutter declutter first

Or use someone who sells on vinted for you, and takes a percentage

Once the house is clear, start selling little by little. You won't manage a mountain of STUFF but if you advertise one dress or jumper or teddy at a time, it's easy.

And stick with "one in, one out!" for any new thing

I used to sell on eBay and it was quite good but the last time I barely broke even so really I was giving things away.

You see overwhelmed and trying to sell things will just be more for you to do. Just give it all away.

I own less than 300 things including every piece of furniture in my house. I never keep anything I don't use.

I hate having loads of stuff hanging around so I keep on top of outgrown clothes/toys. I usually pick out the best bits and try and sell them (usually Facebook marketplace) but only for a short time and if they haven't sold I take the listing down. Everything goes somewhere appropriate, charity shop, free up groups, re-use section at my local tip.

I am preparing for a house move and have been utterly ruthless. Given loads and loads away. However beware, many charity shops are overflowing at this time of year and cannot accept donations so call ahead and check. It’s soul destroying to struggle up the road and be turned away.

Some will even collect.

Get a skip . I get a small one every year If you haven't used it in 6 months Charity shop or skip . I go around with a plastic tub . Fill it and straight in the skip and I just keep going. Every year it's almost full . I could take it to the tip and save money but for some reason it's not as productive got me As a skip .

I just ask the kids to sort their clothes out and pop what they don't like into a bag.
Then I drop it off at the charity shop. 4 worn once coats last week.☠️☠️😬

Charity the lot. I haven't got the time or inclination for selling. I see it as both my contribution to a good charity and also love the idea of someone needy getting a bargain.
I'm brutal once I get going too- I don't care who bought me something, what it cost or how long I've had it, if it needs to go it needs to go.
I can't bear drowning in clutter. Life is so much easier when you have less stuff.

I sell everything. In 6 years I have made over 20k. I would have otherwise just given the stuff away had I not discovered vinted. But now I see how the pennies add up. Easily tops up my income by a couple of hundred quid each month selling the kids outgrown stuff. I don’t have heaps of time. Single parent with young kids, working all week.

I sell as much as I can on Vinted or ebay (don't use FB). Other stuff I repurpose eg using for rags. I like to get my money's worth out of everything I have, I think that product quality and customer service is bad enough as it is without getting the max I can out of things I have paid for. I rarely give to charity shops as I can get more money out of it by selling it myself.
Psychologically I'm not overanxious
about clutter and also get the most out of toys by keeping them for as long as possible - my dcs are great at playing with toys beyond their strict age limits through imaginative play.

i have a clear-out every 6 months, which I offload to my garden shed.

6 months later, I look at the shed's contents and if I'm not going to find it useful, I get rid. Bring back in anything that I think I will use. Have another clear-out on existing items if needs be.

Repeat every 6 months.

Trying to sell stuff is time consuming and soul destroying.
Unless you are desperately strapped for cash give it to charity.
Others will benefit and you will have regained so much space.

I am also in the predicament of having much too much stuff. If you do want to sell things, once I started offering things in bundles for small amounts of money lots of stuff sold really fast and I made a few hundred quid (bundling up like 3 trousers, two tops and a jumper that were all the same size and selling for a fiver etc) I kept things online for a month and if they had not sold I donated.

And also bear in mind the mental energy it uses up to store, clean, sort and list things may be worth more than the couple of quid you would make in actually doing that, sometimes just getting rid is really freeing.

Yes exactly that’s not what charity shops are for at all
its not about giving the stuff to the needy it’s about selling the stuff for raising money!

Most stuff I just donate. Some “good” stuff I post for sale or free, or things that charity shops won’t take. If it doesn’t get bought I donate or toss.

We are moving for the third time in 3 years and this time I am being absolutely ruthless.

Just today I've taken a truckload of clothes, toys, books and games to our local charity as I'm determined I'm not moving with them again and clogging up a room with all this stuff that I've got loads of good intentions for and never get round to doing.

Kitchen stuff is my nemesis. Tell me one person who NEEDS 3 slowcookers, 2 airfryers etc.

I've got utensils to rival wilkos stocks and CDS and DVDs piled so high, yet I don't have a CD or DVD player.....

It's got to go. It really does have to go. The one load I've done today has been cathartic and I'm certain others will reap benefits from them including the charity I've sent them to.

It's really hard in this world where material items are valued so highly, but being ruthless (for me) is the best way.
