Where are our Monicas at? Spring cleaning season is on the horizon.

Start planning your attack (we mean, your approach) with these three tips to manage clutter:

If you’re looking to donate furniture

Habitat for Humanity will gladly come pick up that couch or mattress you're ready to part ways with. To schedule some help, figure out which ReStore location is closest to you and give them a call.
Out of the Closet Thrift Stores also accepts furniture; fill out a large item donation form to get started.
St. Vincent de Paul's Kent and Burien thrift stores are accepting hard surface furniture donations like tables, desks, and wooden chairs.

If you’re cleaning out your closets

Mary's Place is a local org dedicated to helping families and women out of homelessness and into some more stability. They're always on the hunt for all types of clothing, as well as bed linens, small appliances, and personal hygiene items.
Donate your in-season women's clothing, shoes, and accessories — all of which help stock the free boutique at Jubilee Women's Center's. Donations are accepted at the organization's main site on Capitol Hill.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Puget Sound has 50+ clothing donation bins around our region where you can drop off your new and gently used threads. Find a bin near you.
West Seattle Food Bank accepts like-new clothing donations through its Clothesline program. The most needed items include spring jackets, men's pants in sizes 30-36, and men's small + medium shirts.

If you simply need more space

Neighbor offers storage options listed by locals. Rent anything from an attic, a shed, a spare bedroom, and a garage to store your stuff. Bonus: You can also rent parking spots.
Public Storage offers several locations where you can store your extra stuff.
