Baby stuff piling up!

DS is 5 months and his smaller baby things are really staring to take over the house. He's the first baby for a while so we were given piles and piles of things by relatives which we really appreciated but it's starting to take over the house!
He's outgrown 3 sizes of clothing and his next to me. Along with a good few other bits. My plan was to sell/give away things as he stopped needing them as we don't have a lot of space in the house but with all that's going on it's not the time to be doing any of that. Anyone have any bright ideas for storing incredible unneeded baby things?

Vacuum sealed bags for clothes etc. Could still sell them on gumtree or Facebook, just do contactless sales. Either get them to pay via PayPal and leave the parcel somewhere secure or post it to them?

Lots of people are really struggling to buy baby clothes at the moment, especially the smaller sizes so I've given a load away to charities and refuges that have asked for specific donations via SM in the area.

I'm not sure about PayPal etc. I wouldn't agree to it if I was buying. Might wait if I can. I'll have a look and see if anyone is looking for donations. I've certainly not noticed anything near me but I might not be looking in the right places.

Do not accept Paypal for collection unless you are happy to lose the money and the item - it opens you up to scams.

@help1653 no I think you're right there and I'd rather not handle cash. Also I wouldn't buy secondhand at all just now to be honest and I love a bargain. I'll wait.
