Decluttering

[jack]

I cleared out all the old clothes that don't fit or I don't wear, threw out the ones that have fallen to bits and took all the ones I can't wear to charity recycling. And I cleared out my spare room of books, ruthlessly consigning over half to boxes destined inexorably to Oxfam.

(Has anyone donated a big pile of books (~250) before? I plan to ring the store and ask how (if) they want them, but I don't know if there's a central depot anywhere not on the highstreet large collections can go, or if you're supposed to just lug them into a store. I'm pretty sure there's none I'd really recommend, but you're welcome to come and take some if you think you'd like some :))

Have you tried Freecycle? That's how I got rid of about 150 books when I moved in with Ewan. A man drove to my house and picked them up, so all I had to do was put them in boxes.
