Getting rid of baby stuff.

    Hey all,

    My girl is two now and well out of a good few baby things. I'm tempted to keep them in case of another baby but as i'm single i doubt that will be for a while so i'm wondering what you all do? Should i just keep them in the shed or turf them into a charity shop or try to sell. Some stuff is only fit for the bin. She is the first next generation child so was spoilt rotten and has some lovely things, some hardly used but should i bother trying to sell them? Pretty much just wondering what you all did! They take up so much space! Thanks

    I passed on a lot my stuff to friends and family after my daughter was born(shes 9), Because I knew I wasnt going to be having another child straight away.

    My sister still appreciates getting a bag of clothes off me every now and then!!

    The stuff that was fit for the bin, we just threw out...

    I sold some of the better/ more expensive stuff (sling, swinging crib, breast pump etc), and then donated a lot- mostly baby clothes- to the local Woman's Refuge.

    I sent all my sons baby stuff to a charity shop but if you have a few expensive bits sell them on or give them to the family or mates possibly with new born.

    Sell the good stuff:

    eBay
    adverts.ie

    Donate the okay stuff to a charity shop/womens shelter/SVP etc.

    Bin the rest

    pass it down not everyone has the money to be buying clothes every week as we all know how fast kids grow out of clothes, i kept a few bits simply for sentimental reasons and the rest i gave to charity.


    dont throw them out its a shame when there are people who cant afford to buy clothes every other week. clothes that are just to worn use as cloths for polishing i did.:)

    you could advertise them on freecycle.

    I use JumbleTown for passing on stuff I no longer want.
