haven't done much recently as we had a bit of a decluttering binge while i was pregnant and donated everything that wasn't tied down to the black saturday/salvo's collection. in the two months before that we'd donated 3 trailerloads of things. about 12 months before that we donated pretty much a house full of furniture (single/double/queen bed, kitchen setting, heaters, fans, fridge, lounge suite) to the salvos (not to the normal op shop - that went straight to the crisis centre for helping people escape abusive relationships).
before christmas 2008 there wasn't a week for about 2 months that we weren't dropping something at the salvos for their op shop. and everytime sil came out, we'd send something to st vinnies....
need to do another declutter soon - but i'm struggling to find time with an active little poppet!
ooh yeah, we sent cuttlery and crockery as well - and when our kitchen gets updated, there will be a set of pots and pans as we'll replace them with the ones that are packed away at the moment
