[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hire one of those downsizing companies that specialize in this. They will come out and be incredibly empathetic while sorting through the stuff and “finding good homes” for it. [/quote] This is the answer. My other suggestion is the offer to take stuff because you know "someone" who wants it. More work for you, but, it might ease your parents' minds. Try and be empathetic. It's not about their stuff, it is about getting older, moving, etc. This is why hiring a professional takes you out of the process and makes it more neutral.[/quote]
