Cleaning out my mom's house. I hate to trash things that may be useful to someone else and some of it's probably worth some $$. I've used Facebook marketplace a couple of times. I've heard of OfferUp and LetGo but haven't used them. Where will i get the best response and $? Should i just pile it all up and do an online estate sale instead? TIA. Also, if anyone has done this and has any general tips, please share.

Ebay tends to get the best price, but shipping is a pain. If you want to sell things quickly and easily, Facebook Marketplace is your best bet. If you just want to get rid of things without throwing them away then Buy Nothing on Facebook is best.

Buy Nothing also has an app if you don’t want to use Facebook. It does have less users than the buy nothing Facebook groups though, for now
