Sticky notes for many families with many items went on the back or the bottom of the item. They also make labels that do not leave a residue. Sticky notes worked for most. Some families did it right before people move, but others did it well before. Our company had a magnetic board with furniture pieces. We fit all furniture items they wanted to take with them. This allowed all furniture and the collectables that would not fit, paintings with no place to hang on the wall, stuff in cabinets. When the parents allowed, family could pick items they treasured.
We came to find people have way too many things that they stopped using or seeing for 15 years or more. Some were lucky enough to have family who treasured items their parent no longer needed.
