Take a look into your cupboard. Is it overflowing? How many items do you actually still use? How many clothes that do not fit, do you still have? Which items do you think should be removed from the cupboard?
It is okay to keep all of your old clothes, bags, shoes, and other items in your cupboard. But, when you buy new items, chances are you are not using your old items anymore. Not to mention those items you purchased impulsively, and you actually donβt need them. That is one of the reasons itβs so hard to declutter: you look at those items that you donβt actually need (or want) and remember how much time or energy or cash it cost you to obtain.
The beginning of the year is a perfect time for you to de-clutter your old items. There are two options for you to free some spaces in your cupboard: donate your items to worthy charities (see our list of Yayasan where you can donate your old stuff), or sell them as preloved items.
Remember: One person’s trash could be another person’s treasure!
If the second option is appealing to you, here are the places where you can sell your secondhand stuff, both online and offline:
ONLINE

Not just social media, Facebook also provides special features for users to buy and sell. Through the Marketplace feature, users can easily sell their used goods online via the application.
Facebook Marketplace will also recommend products based on the user’s search history on any platform, whether it’s Google search, Facebook, Instagram, e-commerce , and others.
But it is necessary to be smart about buying on the web selling used goods, because Facebook does not provide refund or redressal services
