My father died. I have to liquidate his house.

[no_hypocrisy]

59 years of stuff that shouldn't be arbitrarily put into a dumpster but I don't need.

What do I do as far as knowing what I can sell and what I can donate?

I *could* donate everything but what if there's something that's valuable? And who do I contact to sell something like a Persian rug?

I can't do a yard/garage sale because I'm alone and can't find anyone available for this event to help me.

Any and all advice would be welcome.

Thanks!
