However holding a garage sale does not mean that you just dump all your stuff on your garden, waiting for people to come and buy things before moving house. There is some preparation that you have to do for an organized garage sale before a move.

Plan your garage sale some time before moving house

Next choose an area of your home for pricing the items and another area for storage of items before the garage sale to make moving house easier later.

Place signs in nearby streets some time before moving house

During the day of the garage sale know how much money you had to start the day for accurate calculations at the end of the day. Have at least one helper to help sell stuff, wrap items and answer queries by customers.

Donate leftovers to charity before moving house
