It’s essential to be mindful of your waste while practicing minimalism and doing it sustainably. Here are some ideas to do that:
DONATE:
Look for some local drop-off donation centers. Look for Salvation Army, Goodwill, and other communities accepting charity and donated goods.
RESELL:
Use online resell apps like Poshmark, AptDeco, LetGo, Mercari, OfferUp, and Facebook Marketplace. You can also get a commission at offline used good stores.
RECYCLE:
If it’s in poor condition and can’t be donated or sold, make sure to recycle. Follow local instructions on how to recycle specific waste.
GIFT:
Give it to someone in need.
Ask friends and coworkers if they want anything from your discard pile.
