[quote=Anonymous]I started cleaning out my mother's cupboards and closets when I visited. Her house was not bad, but there were still things to get rid of, like a stack of phone books, empty boxes she had kept from things she ordered, old suitcases without wheels. I would fill up her trashcans which I did every week anyway. I also went through the garage and took all the old paint, solvents, etc to the dump which takes toxic stuff. She moved into assisted living and we divided up all her furniture and things we wanted, gave away the rest then had junk removal. It was nice to have things we wanted before she died (we told her how much we liked them, which she appreciated). We fixed up her house and rented it. She lived for five more years. I was so glad not to have to do this task on top of everything else.[/quote]
