Since it is prohibited to possess chametz on Pesach, any chametz left undisposed must be sold to a non-Jew. [Any chametz remaining in the possession of a Jew during Pesach may not be used, eaten, bought or sold even after Pesach.] Therefore, all chametz that will not be eaten or burned before Pesach and all chametz utensils that will not be thoroughly cleaned by then should be stored away.
Note: Leading halachic authorities have ruled that online authorizations are acceptable for the purpose of selling chametz. Although generally, the preferred practice is for the authorization transaction to be done in person with the rabbi, due to the coronavirus crisis, this should be done online.

Delegation of Power to Sell Chametz
I fully empower and permit Rabbi Berel Paltiel to act in my place and stead and on my behalf to sell all chametz possessed by me, knowingly or unknowingly as defined by the Torah and Rabbinic Law (e.g. chametz, possible chametz, and all kind of chametz mixtures). This power is in conformity with all Torah, Rabbinic and Civil laws.
