If you still have a VHS player but never watch VHS tapes, get rid of it. Same goes for all outdated technology items. Google how to get rid of these properly. Your city should have a hazardous waste drop-off system in place.

8. Items that you’ve been procrastinating getting fixed

Unless they hold a great nostalgic value or special meaning, get rid of them. If it is just something collecting dust and you don’t even like it that much, give it to someone who will love it.

11. Freebies

12. Unmatched items
