We started planning to move about a year before the actual move. Most of this time was spent getting the house ready to sell, but we also started to sell everything we are not planning to take with us based on what makes sense to move and what not to move. Larger and more niche items take longer to sell, so if you have them – start early.
I sold my kayaks/trailers for them, RV, large outdoor equipment I could be without about 3-6 months before the move. Then I organized smaller things to sell in waves, so they are distributed in time and I can manage the process. Listing things for around 1/3 of the price new seems to be a sweet spot, some stuff in excellent condition and reasonable demand can sell for 1/2 of the price new. I posted more expensive items on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace, and les expensive – on Facebook only, as they seem to sell faster there. If you have niche items, be ready to sell them really really cheap, or give them away for free.
Moving is not a financially beneficial activity, be ready to recoup just a very small portion of your belongings you manage to sell. I plan to sell our cars about a week before the move, and rent something for the last week, preferably something that I can return at the airport – did not research what is available, I may need something too big to fit all the bags, so may rent a minibus just for the ride to the airport.
My recommendation:
Start planning to get rid of your belongings early to minimize what you need to send to Georgia. You will need to pay 18-30% import duty from the used price of everything, so try to leave most things behind.
Sell stuff in waves so to not get overwhelmed.
