Let me start by saying that we have a HUGE attic. It follows the back of our house and goes the whole extensive length.....now the attic is full of JUNK!
After my father passed away my husband, myself and my mother all went together and bought a large house. DH and I having only been married 11 years had junk but not nearly as much as my mother who lived in the same house with my dad for 35 years. To make a long story short, my mother's old house sold quicker than we thought and we found this house quicker than we thought so we just boxed up things and in the attic they went.
Which brings me to now. DH, myself and my mother all have a week coming up of vacation. We are planning to clean this attic out in hopes of getting rid of everything we can before we move in a little over a year. There is tons of china and collectibles but we have NO IDEA what if anything is worth money. Should we just chunk it all and say forget it? My thoughts are if we try to garage sell it, or ebay sell it that we still are going to have it in the house and nowhere to store it until it sells.
I live in a small town and there aren't people who buy big loads of stuff like this. Have you ever come across anything like this? Like when a parent or loved one passes away and just have tons and tons of stuff. What do you do?????
