Media collections grow over the years—books from college, movies you’ve watched once, games you don’t play anymore. If your shelves and closets are overflowing, it’s time to declutter. Here’s a simple process to sort through your media and put it to good use.
1. Gather Everything in One Place
Collect your books, DVDs, Blu‑rays, video games and board games into a single space. Seeing everything together gives you a clear picture of what you own.
2. Sort Into Keep, Donate & Discard
Ask yourself:
- Do I love this item enough to keep it?
- Will I honestly reread, replay or rewatch it?
- Is it in good enough condition to donate?
Keep favorites you’ll enjoy again. Donate items that still have life left in them. Recycle damaged or obsolete items responsibly.
3. Prepare Donation Items
Clean and dust your donations. For games and puzzles, check that all pieces are included. Pack books and discs in sturdy boxes or bags. Label each container clearly.
4. Schedule a Pickup with Rescue Media Mission
