Even efficiently packed hangers take up a lot of space so make sure that the hangers you decide to keep are worth the effort of moving.
Try posting the hangers to networking sites like Craigslist or Nextdoor. These sites might help you find someone who wants the hangers if your acquaintances do not. Offer for them free and see if you get any responses.
To calculate how many wardrobe boxes you need, measure the clothes in your closet, and divide that number by 2 feet (0. 61 m). Wardrobe boxes are available at almost any packing supply store.
