As I am gutting my house and trying to make room for my growing family I thought I may give it a go. Saves a trip to the clothes bin which have been removed from my local supermarket carparks. I had thought about taking the clothes to a car boot sale but it usually rains when I go and you have to pay to get in to them. I phoned the company and arranged for pick up this Wednesday as I was off work.
I bagged up all the stuff
When the van arrived the man carried out all the bags to the van.
He has a big scale in the van that he weighs your bags with.
Once all the bags are weighed he showed me a print off slip of how much they weighed and what it was worth.
We had been guessing at home maybe £10 or so. I was over the moon to see the total was just over £43.
So if you are having a clear out and want to know when they collect in your area, give them a ring. The money I made will pay our Tol roads one way on our holiday.
cash for clothes
The only down side was when I emptied the loft Olivia discovered a lot of the boys old toys and has decided to claim them :-( x
