The weather’s warming up, which means it’s about time to knock out some spring cleaning. Many clean out their houses either by throwing things away (and losing out on a ton of cash) or having a yard sale (better, but takes a lot of time and resources).

Instead of going one of those two routes, a pawn shop would be your best option. Down below, we’ve made a list of why you should pawn or sell your items this spring. Read on to learn the benefits.

1. Great Deals on Tools for Spring Cleaning

Pawnshops carry many of the tools you need for spring cleaning. These tools can be had for a lot less than the full retail price at pawn shops than at retail stores.

Knock out two birds with one stone. Declutter your house by pawning or selling stuff you don’t need, then use your money to buy discounted supplies like vacuums and brooms from the same pawn shop.

Even if your local pawn shop doesn’t have the stuff you need, you now have money to spend on cleaning supplies at another store.

2. High Demand for Certain Items

As the weather gets warmer, more people will be ready to do yard work and outdoor home improvement projects. If you have any power tools you don’t need, that could mean big money for you.

Depending on the brand name and condition of your tools as well as your location, you could earn a couple of hundred dollars for a single tool.

3. Stock Your Summer Vacation Fund

Looking to fund a summer getaway? No better time to do it than this spring — and no better way to do it than by pawning or selling your items. 

Items like jewelry and precious metals will get the best prices at many locations, but pawn shops also take electronics, musical instruments, antiques, video games, and more.

4. It’s Easier Than a Yard Sale

Let’s face it: yard sales can be a hassle. There’s a lot of work involved, and local laws may prevent you from holding one at all.

It’s much easier to turn your old stuff into cash by bringing it into a pawn shop. All you have to do is research the value of your items beforehand — no setting up tables of your items, no setting up signs, no hoping that it doesn’t rain when you’re holding the sale.
