get paid for junk laying around

When my grandmother decided to sell her home and move into a retirement village, it was up to my sisters and I to clear the garage, barn and basement of the things that my grandmother had been storing for upwards of 60 years. As we worked through the piles, boxes and racks of stuff, we found that a lot of the stuff could be tossed into the trash or sent out for recycling. We wanted to do what we could to get my grandmother some cash for everything, so it took us some time to figure out how to get rid of things and get some money in return. We created a blog together that will help others going through a similar situation make the most from the unwanted junk laying around.
