Progress after two days
Two days after our goods were picked up, things are going well. Just about everything that was left behind after the movers left has been sorted in to different piles. The piles are meant for different people, for re-use or for disposal.
Unlike the United Sates; in the Netherlands, rented houses need to be returned to the house owners bare; no appliances, floors stripped to the bare concrete, no light fixtures, etc.
We were very lucky that a new renter has been found before we left who is willing to take over the responsibility for the laminate in all rooms, for the floor tiles in 2 halls and the kitchen, and for some other things. By not having to remove all that stuff, we gains three of four days and a lot of costs.
Hopefully we will be able to get through getting rid of the large stuff tomorrow. Saturday and Sunday are for picking up the remaining large appliances by their new owners, taking down a few ceiling fans and other small things and cleanup of the house.
With some luck; Monday will be the last day that we need to pick up things.
