We kept our house in northern Arkansas, and most of my “stuff” is still there. It is surprising to say that I do not miss the vast majority of those things. “If you have not used it in a year, get ride of it,” should be my new motto:-) 3 years ago

How I did it: moving house is always a great time for looking at what you really need and don't need! Sold stuff on ebay and gave the rest to charity. Makes you realise how easy it is to accumulate things over time and that often alot of it you don't really need to hang on to. Read how I did it… 4 years ago

the “junk.” Why am I such a saver? I never went through the depression, and have always had everything I need, but none the less I am a saver. 5 years ago

or as they say here, the “Recycling Center, and Solid Waste Disposal Area.” Anyway we were allowed to take one pickup truck of “junk” a day to the dump free. My wife and I took a total of five loads. My shop may well become a “shop” again and not a storage area for things that I may use someday:-) 6 years ago

After all this is My Stuff. I keep saying I don’t need this, but I may need it later. Or, it may be worth something some day. I can see I am going to have trouble with this one. 6 years ago

We decided to clean/ remodel the house one room at a time. I am about to get started on the “computer room,” I have taken five large boxes out. After I get it all out, I plan to “gut” the room and redo the walls and floor. Then only return what I really need and get rid of the rest. As you can see five boxes only made a dent in the junk. 7 years ago

but I always felt that I had better keep “it” because I may someday need “it.” Therefor, I have a lot of “its” all over the place. That is a fairly good defination of hording7 years ago

Got rid of some via boot sale and the rest have been picked up by charities.
Uber pleased as I haven’t just dumped them in the tip, they might actually be of use to someone else and better still I now have more space and less clutter. 7 years ago
