Can you put a notice on a bulletin board or anywhere in your current apartment building or neighborhood? Make a flyer for the laundry room or something? I forget how big your building is, sorry if it is kind of small. I was always a bit more comfortable with my own neighbors since I lived there too, than having people from all over like freecycle come? I also felt a bit better if I could have a friend/neighbor around with me when other people came by to look at or get stuff?

I wish you all the best. Haven't done this in a while, but preparing for if need be and as I'm getting older. Did a lot when younger. Yes, just gotta let a lot of stuff go fast. I know it's tough, hang in there, the more you do and check off your list, the better you'll feel!
