You're not a true hoarder. I am kind of like you in that I go through stuff at least twice a year and dispose of stuff I have no real plans for. I try to organize by type and usage just so I can quickly get to stuff I really need. A true hoarder will often have jumbles of stuff, then collect more stuff of the same type and has odds and bits here and there with no true idea of what they have. Eventually they have no room to function. My Great Grandpa was a hoarder and when he died we as a family ended up burning piles and piles of stuff. I clearly remember the massive piles of burning stuff that were being cleared out when I was four years old. Grandpa was also a bit of a hoarder and then Grandma was too but she would put everything away in tidy drawers. So you really didn't know how much stuff she had until you'd try to open a drawer or cupboard. IN their garage over the years it had filled up with empty boxes because she might need them someday. While she was out of town I got disgusted because you really couldn't get through the garage, store tools or even see what was in the garage. Just piles of empty boxes. I burned them all save two boxes of boxes someone had purchased at Home Depot. She was very peeved when she came back from vacation. But, under those boxes was an old horse drawn buggy. A surrey? I cleaned it up and she sold it to a relative for $1000.00. She's save every single plastic container by washing it out and placing behind her trailer in a 50 gallon steel drum. Several steel drums loaded with plastic containers. Again, I burned them all when she was out of town and she had a fit. She was going to "recycle" them. Just haul them to town someday to recycle and they weren't even paying. Ok, I lied and told her I "recycled" them. She was sooo happy about that.
