What do you do with your old things?

depends what it is. big items i usually donate or give away.. fabric items i'll make potholders or quilts out of if the material's still ok in places. appliances usually go in the trash,cause by that time they're usually worthless.

Quite often I go through all my stuff and have a big throwout. I organise stuff into different piles. Some I ask my family if they want and some I throw directly into the bin. Anything that is leftover I give to charity. I think it feels really good to get rid of old stuff be it shoes, clothes, appliances or what not. It's great to declutter!

Regularly, I check my stuff- clothes, bags, boxes and many things. Books definitely will stay on my bookshelves except overgrown baby book of my kids. I gave it to a school library where my kids finished Montessori Casa Department. Things for keep like baby first toy will be in a memory boxes. Clothes, Bag and shoes will be for " Sharing Stuff". I check first which is good to share and dispose those not so good to share---so worn out stuff! I have a special box for "Sharing Stuff" which I and my kids can easily put in and get it and share.

Some of them save in my home,some of them give my relatives,if they can wear.Some of them,I throw them out.I think do this is not good.Because I know many people no clothes to wear due to poor,if have a organization,they can collect old clothes,which give them to poor people.Like it,I think it is very good.

I volunteer at a women's shelter. I usually donate mine there. You get a nice tax write off, which helps you, and you can give someone else something that they can use. The shelter also helps people in my area who are effected by their houses burning down and such. I helped the shelter start a thrift store, so that the income from that can help them pay some of their bills. I like to give my stuff to them, because they use it to sell to help others or they give them to others. I will also box up some of my stuff and have a very large yard sale about once a year. What is left from the yard sale also goes to the shelter. Also, if the shelter can not use something that you donate to them, they donate it to another agency, like goodwill or somewhere else that might be able to use it. A good site to get rid of free stuff on is www.freecycle.org you can find your local chapter. They offer stuff and you can ask for free stuff, but it is recommended if you ask for something that you also offer something. I like this because it helps youto get rid of clutter, but someone else may benefit from it.

most of my old clothes, shoes and other things that i feel i dont like to wear anymore donated to less fortunate and to some of my relatives. I feel good everytime i help mostly the less fortunate.

I give what is usable to charity. What is unusable or irreparable, I recycle if I can, otherwise it reluctantly has to go to landfill.

Old things at my house tend to get thrown out. I try to find ways to recycle some old items but really they just get tossed. I keep meaning to donate an old pair of jeans for a place that recycles clothing and gets money for it which then gets donated to a place that buys clothing for homeless people but I keep forgetting to drop them off.

my clothes & shoes if they are in good shape i give to wee care, a church sponsered place we have here. i usually throw broken appliances out. no one to fix them here. sometimes my older son can fix something but him getting around to doing is a lost cause.

We all have clothes that have come to the end of their lifespan, either because they're worn out or are too small or are simply out of fashion. As new season's ranges come into the high street shops we often find ourselves making room in our wardrobes for the new arrivals, and throwing away old jumpers and shirts that don't make the grade anymore. Instead of putting things in the bin, try recycling them in another way. This makes for less waste, can help you with a hobby, and even give you some great gift ideas! Give them away to a charity shop Use them as cleaning rags Make them into new clothes Make a patchwork quilt Make cushion covers I have so many pairs of shoes that it's simply unreal! I'm a girl!!! I can never bring myself to throw old shoes out. MY feet stopped growing, so I know they'll always fit, but if they a bit scruffy or ruined, they seem to sit in the back of my wardrobe! I love the fact that I have so many pairs of shoes and I have no intention of throwing any of them out! keep posting.. take care and have fun

I love my stuff. I keep the old watches and jeweleries because they had sentimental values to me. Old clothes, I gave to the needy neighbors or relatives. Books, I gave them to my nieces and nephews except novels and encyclopedia that I love so much. Unwanted letters, I burnt them down. Magazines, I keep my loved one that is the Garden and Homes. The rest is donated to the school library.

Hi frnds, what do you do with your old things? My old things were got in a gift to me were my frnds,family members,relatives, neibhours.I will keep very neat and in good condition.The old things always useful things.I will give it to trust.

i dont feel like throwing away or giving away my stuff .. i keep on dumping in my old almirah and one day mom will dispose it off though i dont use it anymore i feel sad for all those things which iam sure will never use them

Keeping my room/surroundings clutter-free will certainly help me in organizing my things. I hate it when a lot of old unuseful things are stuck in my room. So once in a while, whenever I get the luxury of time, I clean up my room and gather unnecessary things which are just sooo annoying in the eyes plus they consume a lot of space. I sort them into two things: the ones to dispose, and the ones to give away ehich others may find very useful. This helps me manage my own space, however small it may be. This allows me to have enough room for more important and essential things.

If it is still usable and wearable, then I will give it away to the Salvation Army.. If it is not good, I will throw it in the trash can.. I will not give someone something that I can no longer use for myself..

Usually, we give it to our relatives or people we know who we think will like and might need it. Like for our old appliances, if my father can't fix it anymore and not worth it to bring it to the repair shop, we most likely give it to our relatives. As for our clothes, it's either we give it to our cousins, aunts and other relatives or give it other people we know or to the charity.

Well to me i give them out to any one i think needs them but mostly i give to my relatives,friends,and homeless children . I strongly belive in given out things but not only old things be it what ever am always happy to give it out,when i give hmm it boosts my moral.

The old things that I own are usually sent to the barrios or the county side where I have relatives who work in the farm. They can still use it for farming. The others are usually donated to the community for selling then funding to help others. My mom usually does all these things. For old things inside the house, if its broken, my mom sells them in the junk shop. For shoes, clothes and other personal things my younger cousins ask them from me and they do many things to it.

I gave them away. If my friends like some of my stuff, they can take them. Those that were left, I give them to Salvation Army.

most are given to our relatives. some go to our neighbor's househelp.
