You finally got a bigger flat screen TV last year for Christmas. Congratulations! By now you've got it up on the wall, but did you get rid of that old TV?

Maybe you still have your old television and you've tucked it in a back bedroom or out in the garage. That's fine if you want to have it around and actually use it. But what do you do with it if you no longer want or need it?

Sometimes you need to get rid of household goods or personal belongings, but they are still usable. Consider donating them instead of simply dumping them. 

Old furniture, working electronics, books, usable clothing, and many other items you no long want or need can find a new home if disposed of properly. And they can be kept out of landfills!
