Default Is this possibly a good idea?

A while back I thought of becoming a professional organizer with the emphasis being on helping others get rid of clutter they don't want rather than just organizing it. But various things happened and I put this idea on the backburner.

Now after having read some of the posts by Jim McTighe and others about chatteling an idea has begun churning in my brain that I would like an opinion on.

I wondered about instead of charging $60 or more an hour for helping people de-clutter to have an offer where I would do the same thing simply in exchange for the stuff they no longer want.

Then I could resale the items through yard sales (which I love to do), consignment stores, classified ads, etc.

Maybe I'd use this only as an introductory, limited time offer to get the word out for my organizing services. Or maybe it could work out well enough that I'd keep it up.

What do you think? Is this a plausible idea? Something you'd like...or know others who would?

Thanks.
