Of purchase.
Pretty soon I will have to update to a kindle with more room. I have over 1000 books and am running out of space.
I rarely go online to manage my books, but I just did and did not see my collections. I assumed when I do such organizing on my kindle it would transfer to my online account but guess I was very wrong.
Is there an easy way to transer my collections and content to online so that it can be downloaded when I purchase my kindle upgrade? Or do I have to start from scratch on the new purchase and/ or the online account?
Thank you for reading.

I would have suggested using calibre to manage your collections but that does require a jailbroken Kindle which a new Kindle is unlikely to be.
I tried putting a couple of collections on my Kindle with books that I sideloaded however the books did not show up as in collections on amazon.ca.
You should be able to register your new Kindle to your current online account so any purchased/emailed books should synchronize but I suspect you may have to re-create the majority of your collections manually.
Edit: Unlike the Kobo devices where series and collections are much easier to manage and you can create & delete them or move books in and out of series or collections from calibre. Though I must admit that a Kobo device will not show a single view with collections and books mixed. Things are tough all over.
