Your car breaks down, a medical bill hands you a steep deductible, or extra days off from a remodel at work mean less pay on your paycheck. Whatever the reason, you\u2019re looking for extra cash ASAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You could start a side hustle like Postmates, Uber, or dog walking. These are excellent ways to make sure you don\u2019t go into the red again next month. But all of them have a ramping-up period during which you\u2019re making no money. It doesn\u2019t help you in the short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An excellent option to consider is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneycrashers.com\/turn-clutter-into-cash\/\">selling your stuff<\/a>.

You can go to a local second-hand clothing store like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buffaloexchange.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Buffalo Exchange<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.platoscloset.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Plato\u2019s Closet<\/a> and get cash for good-quality clothes you no longer need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to leave the house, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thredup.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">ThredUp<\/a> offers a service for clothes similar to what we just described for books. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.therealreal.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">TheRealReal<\/a> will sell luxury clothes for you on consignment, often with a turnaround time of under a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>: Jeans, skirts, and sweaters.

At least one room in your home has an old couch, table, or chair you never use but haven\u2019t gotten around to scrapping. Or maybe you have a garage or shed with a whole bedroom set that needs a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, you can clear out a lot of extra space and enjoy a potentially nice payday by selling your furniture on sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.craigslist.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Craigslist <\/a>or apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/offerup.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">OfferUp<\/a>. It\u2019s best to go local with these items since shipping something large and heavy can be expensive and a hassle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>: Couches and comfy chairs.

You can turn them into money with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sellcell.com\/\">SellCell<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Newer phones can resell for hundreds of dollars or more. Even older and broken phones will fetch you a decent amount of cash, as buyers can refurbish them and sell them to overseas markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>:<em> <\/em>The phone you had before your latest upgrade. It will fetch the highest price. Use a comparison site like SellCell that will guarantee to get you the most money for your old device by comparing 40+ buyers.<\/li><li><strong>Don\u2019t Bother With: <\/strong>Phones that are missing screens or are in parts. Broken phones can be sold but they need to be in one piece.<\/li><li><strong>Interesting Opportunity<\/strong>: As with furniture, you can collect old phones from people who don\u2019t want to bother to sell theirs, then sell them online.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Sports Gear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Two universal truths about sports gear:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>At any given time, almost everybody has a surprising amount of stuff they don\u2019t use anymore in some corner of their home.<\/li><li>At any given time, a newcomer to the sport needs low-priced equipment.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.playitagainsports.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play it Again Sports<\/a> is a national chain that buys and resells sporting goods, especially in the youth sports market. You can also post on Craigslist or OfferUp to see what the market is like there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, you turn the last reminders of a hobby you\u2019ve abandoned into the money you need to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>: Whatever gear is in season right now. It will fetch the highest prices and sell the fastest.<\/li><li><strong>Don\u2019t Bother With<\/strong>: Home fitness gear like treadmills and weight benches. The market is typically glutted with them to the point where you can hardly give them away.<\/li><li><strong>Interesting Opportunity<\/strong>: If you\u2019re an expert at a sport, consider giving private coaching lessons in your local community. It\u2019s an easy way to pick up a few dollars doing what you love.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Toys<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kids love their toys \u2014 temporarily. After they\u2019ve outgrown them, they typically just add to the pile of possessions keeping their room a messy disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With their permission, you can send those playthings out to be somebody else\u2019s new favorite while bringing in money for the family. Craigslist, OfferUp, and stores like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.onceuponachild.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Once Upon a Child<\/a> can give you reasonable prices on the most popular toys and a little money for classics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>: Branded crossover pieces like Star Wars, superheroes, or Dora the Explorer. They tend to have staying power.<\/li><li><strong>Don\u2019t Bother With<\/strong>: Anything broken or worn. The toy market is pretty flooded, so there\u2019s little interest in less than the best.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Interesting Opportunity<\/strong>: Look into any toys you\u2019ve kept from childhood. A few specimens might be legitimate collectibles and sell for hundreds or even thousands of dollars.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. VHS Tapes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To be clear, almost all of your VHS tapes are useless and worthless. Technology has moved on three different times since they were popular, and they don\u2019t have the hip nostalgia value of LPs and similar technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, specific collectible and first editions of some movies, especially Disney classics, can fetch a surprising amount on eBay. Most of your collection will earn you less than you spend on postage, but it\u2019s worth checking out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>:<em> <\/em>Disney animated movies, cult classics, and obscure niche titles, especially titles that were never upgraded to DVD.<\/li><li><strong>Don\u2019t Bother With<\/strong>: Blockbusters. The market is full of them, and they have little nostalgia value.<\/li><li><strong>Interesting Opportunity<\/strong>: if you have old LPs, the market is even better for them \u2014 though they must be in great condition and scratch-free.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Vintage Items<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Old stuff is worth very little until it gets old enough to be considered a classic. That\u2019s why programs like \u201cAntiques Roadshow\u201d are so popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have dusty belongings from a relative\u2019s estate or a storage unit you haven\u2019t opened in 10 years, go through it for things old enough or retro enough to be making a comeback. eBay is the best place to sell vintage items, but a local market might get the money to you sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Start With<\/strong>: Retro items popular with the hipster crowd, like typewriters, see-through phones, and movie posters.<\/li><li><strong>Don\u2019t Bother With<\/strong>: Anything broken. The price plummets.<\/li><li><strong>Interesting Opportunity<\/strong>: If you\u2019re crafty, you can take pieces of broken vintage items, make art or decorations out of them, and then sell your work on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Etsy<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honorable Mention: Your Body<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No, we don\u2019t mean \u201csell your body\u201d in that way. We mean monetizing your anatomy for science, such as by selling blood plasma, eggs, or sperm or signing up for medical trials. This is a very personal decision and not for everybody, but it can come with a healthy paycheck at the other end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thought: Cleaning Up Your Finances<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jettisoning some of your unwanted things can give your bank account an immediate boost, but it can also cut your spending moving forward. Just a few of the ways decluttering and organizing your home can save you real money include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>An organized garage means you stop buying a tool you can\u2019t find only to locate it a day or two later.<\/li><li>Organizing your mail means no more missed bills and late fees.<\/li><li>Your remaining possessions will be better maintained, meaning you replace them less often.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s just the beginning of how less clutter and more organization can keep your household more firmly in the black. Start by removing stuff you don\u2019t need &#8211; at a profit &#8211; and use that extra mental and physical space to start getting your finances on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Courtney Hillington is a freelance writer in New York who knows what it\u2019s like to have to scrimp and sell items.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things happen.
