Fortunately when we clean out stuff it is disposed of. If the items are in good shape but no longer wanted, we’ll donate them to charity. If in bad shape, the items go to the dumpster.
When we moved from our house of 25 years to a smaller house near our grandkids, we threw away over 2000 lbs of stuff – 50 trash bags about 40lbs each. And that doesn’t count the gobs of stuff we gave to Goodwill.
Around here people have 2 car garages at the least. Cars parked outside and garages full of stuff. They should sell the houses with attached storage, semi climate controlled.

So what is he supposed to do? Agree or disagree? “It’s not that.” OK, so what is it? But remember to remember, that he loves you, Janis Day.

“Crap accumulates in direct proportion to the area available to contain it.” Maybe some kind of universal law or something, like gravity?

relabel the “stuff” into “inventory”. Who wants to have too much unneeded inventory?

You can’t have too much storage. Janis’s Corollary to Parkinson’s First Law: “Work expands to fill the time available.”
