A sofa, old carpet, or some clothes you haven't worn for years. But where do you take them? <\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first question you need to ask yourself is: are the items still usable, or do they have absolutely no value anymore, even for someone else?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Sell or give away<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Useful items can still be sold on sites like Marktplaats. That sofa you call \u2018worn out\u2019 might still serve for years in a student house, for example. Second-hand clothing, especially designer items, can also often be sold for a good price. The same applies to \u2018old\u2019 children's toys that have hardly been played with. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Has something been on Marktplaats for weeks or months and you just can\u2019t sell it? Just because someone doesn't have the money for your old things doesn't mean nobody wants them. Maybe you can give them away for free. Nowadays there are plenty of \u2018free\u2019 Facebook groups where you can give away your old stuff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can often have (saleable) items collected for free by the waste disposal company in your municipality. They will then offer your cast-offs for sale in a second-hand shop. This way, you do a favour for someone else and for the environment. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Recycle<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often, goods are no longer usable, but parts or raw materials still have value. A scrap dealer, for example, will happily take that dilapidated bicycle. In fact, this is a form of recycling. Small second-hand goods \u2013 books, electronic appliances, toys, and textiles \u2013 can also be offered at set times in the BEST bag. You can also (free of charge) hand in the BEST bag at a recycling centre or second-hand shop. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Environmental park<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We've already mentioned the name: the recycling centre. Here you can often bring your (sorted) waste free of charge a number of times a year. Certain types of waste can even be brought there for free at any time, such as old paper, textiles, electrical appliances, pruning and garden waste, and scrap iron and metal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A trip to the recycling centre presents many people with a practical problem: how do I transport my old belongings? Often, one's own car is too small. Borrowing or hiring a small van or minibus offers a solution.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Hire a van<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Adrem <a href=\"https:\/\/adremlimburg.nl\/en\/car-hire-limburg\/\">Car rental Limburg<\/a> You can hire a car or bus not just by the day, but also by part of the day. Handy for a quick trip to the recycling centre. Perhaps you'll even have enough time left to not only take away your old sofa, but also to pick up your new piece of furniture from the furniture shopping district straight away. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that with us you can already get a <a href=\"https:\/\/adremlimburg.nl\/en\/cheap-hire\/delivery-van-hire\/r-van\/\">Van<\/a> (Fiat Doblo, Peugeot Partner, Citro\u00ebn Berlingo) hire from \u20ac9.90 per day (excluding VAT)? Insurance and fuel costs will be added to this. <\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do you get rid of your unwanted items cheaply, or perhaps even make a profit?
