Lawn Equipment and Power Tools
Some retirees might downsize from a big home to a cozy apartment. In that case, you won’t need to bring your lawn equipment with you. Lawnmowers, edgers, and leafblowers can find new homes via Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist, so you’ll at least get some money back, especially if they were on the pricier side.
The same goes if you’re looking to rent or move to a retirement community. If you won’t be responsible for making repairs any longer you can sell your power tools too.
And remember, nowadays you can simply rent power tools if you need them.

I have old record albums from the ’40’s, 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. Where can I find out their value, and where can I sell them?
Unless they are in VERY good condition, i.e. not played, let alone played to death like I know my albums were, the value is very little. Find an independent record store in your area (bingoole it) and ask them, bring them a list.
Not very impressed with this article. Author seems to think we all move into a 500 square foot apartment. The last thing I will be getting rid of is my musical instruments and favorite old music, my treadmill, my gardening equipment, etc. Why not just write an article titled “how to host an estate sale and sell off everything you own.”
Luanne – I tend to agree with you. This article should read what to sell when you have to move into assisted living….
Ebay is a great place to sell old albums, you set any price you want!
