Set decisions and a work order
Choose the deadline and work room by room. Create separate keep, donate, sell and remove areas, while protecting documents and other items that must not leave the house. Confirm that a donation recipient will accept items before setting them aside. Photograph larger items and count boxes so your removal list is clear.

Separate electronics, batteries and hazardous items
Keep lithium-ion batteries and devices containing them out of household trash and municipal recycling. Check local collection rules for other electronics. Remove personal information from electronics, check the manufacturer, retailer or local facility for intake instructions, and use a qualified battery, electronics or household-hazardous-waste route when required. Do not pry open devices or remove non-user-serviceable batteries.
For a computer, follow the computer-wiping checklist before giving it away.

Prepare furniture and arrange labor
Plan the route from the room to the staging location, and arrange suitable help, dollies or straps when needed. Remove only manufacturer-detachable pieces where possible, protect furniture and secure drawers. If an item needs indoor carrying or disassembly beyond what you can arrange, book a service that includes that labor before the pickup. Finish with a room-by-room walkthrough.
For a dresser, use the drawer-preparation checklist before moving it.

Where Dropcurb fits
Dropcurb fits accepted leftover items that are already outside and accessible: it handles loading, transport and disposal. You can book before staging, but items must be ready outside before pickup. If you need indoor carrying, use a service that includes that labor.
Use the bulky-item pickup scope to list furniture, appliances and filled household boxes separately.

Common questions
What is the fastest way to clean out a house?
Work to a deadline in a fixed room order: protect the keep zone first, make keep, donate, sell and remove decisions, separate electronics and batteries, confirm donation intake, then stage accepted removal items outside and accessibly. Arrange indoor labor before pickup when you cannot move or prepare an item yourself.
