Downsizing parents

[harbinger]

The logistic are going to be a problem. I can deal with the 'destination' end and the storage (I think).
How do I deal with an empty house?

With Dad's bungalow, we did take everything out, but then we knew that whoever bought it would be completely renovating it anyway - the kitchen and bathroom were still the originals from when the bungalow was built in 1969 - my parents were the original owners - and it needed new windows and radiators too. It also had built in wardrobes and bookshelves my Dad had put in which, like most of my Dad's DIY, were very strong and functional but not particularly attractive! We took up the 40-year old carpets too and the place looked much better without them.

I think that it has to be all out .

Would leaving token furniture in the house off set another removal lorry? in terms of price.

Or,token furniture to goodwill, after exchange?
