Cleaning out parents space? Downsizing?  Looks like a big job just take it a box at a time.  Figure out what you want to keep and donate the rest.  Find a consignment shop in your area if you are in New Hampshire then our shop is the best.  You can donate what you don't want and consign what you want for yourself in the shop.

An elderly couple came in the other day they are moving back to California in April after just being here since August.  The task of moving again was daunting.  They did not know where to begin.  So I said open up an account and  just start bringing it in a box or two at a time.

So it began they are coming in twice a week with what they can carry themselves.  They are making lists of the items and just dropping them off.  It helps them feel better about the move.  Less stress since it is just a couple of boxes at a time and they are getting stuff out of the house.  The wife has a bit of dementia so this is helping her slowly getting rid of stuff.

Another couple is downsizing in the spring and they have come in and now know what to do with what they do not want.  They are going to bring it here and donate it to their favorite charity.

So don't order the dumpster just yet.  You would be surprised what sells.  As the saying goes one man's junk is another man's treasure.

A consignment shop -- with a twist!

Have you ever thought:
  • how can I help my local community?
  • what can I do with this stuff I never use?
  • can I do more to keep my stuff out of the landfill?
At Consigning for Good in Milford, NH, you can do consign your items to help others, declutter, and recycle!

It works two ways:
  1. You can consign your items and get the money for yourself
  2. You can donate your items in the name of one of our 40+ partner charities and a portion of the proceeds goes to help that cause
The shop is full of furniture and home goods (no clothing). Come in to shop, consign, or help your neighbors at:
172 South Street Milford, NH 603-249-9481

We will be using this blog to keep you up-to-date on sales, new charity partners, parties and the fun we are having giving back!
