How much of a hoarder are you?

No idea idea if i spelled that right...but how much do you hoard?

Old magazines? Paperwork? Stuff from your past?

My mom & dad are both pretty bad. Luckily my wife throws everything, so she brings me into balance.

 

I prefer pack rat

 

I am about as anti-hoarder as you get. Both my wife and I probably throw too much stuff out and having to repurchase it at a later date because we can't stand anything extra laying around.


I need things to be neat and tidy.

 

Me too but I'm a little of both. Everything has to be organized but I keep a bunch of stuff I prolly shouldn't though.

 

My mom is pretty bad, I am trying to not be so bad. I usually "Clean Up" by just moving piles. I have recently gotten on an Ebay kick, which is helping some. I think too much about whether to keep something or not, I need to just pay someone to throw stuff away for me.

 

I have an issue with hoarding firearms

Don't talk about your mom like that.... She saved Battle Cat. You owe her many thanks.

 

I'm in the middle. My grandparents whose house I have inherited were pretty bad, which is good and bad. Getting it and the property cleaned up, but taking time. Finding random cool stuff throughout it that makes me happy they were, and adding to me packing stuff away. Found lots of old tools and stuff while tearing down old garage, cool stuff in their old house, and trapping stuff. Thanks to a misguided arrow the other day I found an old bear trap in the fallen down barn I'm cleaning this spring that my buddy said is over 100 years old. Just too bad more of it isn't useful or in better shape

My wife is bad but I keep her in check with my goodwill runs.

 

I am not at all. I hate stuff laying around.

 

haha, you are actually very true!

 

K and I are very bad. Mostly because we have too many hobbies and things going on. From the reloading room to lathes and tools to targets, bowfishing club stuff, our bowfishing stuff, boat parts, traps, treestands, stuff for chickens, planting, harvesting, bits of dead deer and other critters, having a home office...... yeah....

Maybe hoarding isnt the right word... but we definitely have too much stuff.

My families problem is clothes, and shoes/boots.

I swear my youngest brother has 100 pairs of jeans. Considering he has every pair of pants that Isaac, Luke and I had first.

And we probably have 100 pairs of shoes too. I have 9 sitting in my room right now.

Oh and magazines. 15 years of Outdoor Life, Firehouse, American Rifleman, Cabelas, Galls, Woodworking Journal, National Geographic, Sports Illustrated...

 

I have waaaay too many hunting fishing stuff. But it's all organized and on either the garage or in the mancave. Other than that I'm quick to throw things away, I hate clutter. The main floor in our house is pretty clutter free.

My wife on the other hand has our entire attic filled with crap. Everything from dishes she used in college, to hideous furniture that was donated from her extended family when she was young, to teaching supplies that she bought because it was a good deal and never got used. I'm going to rent a dumpster when we move next and thin some of that stuff out I think.

 

My wife and I do not hoard anything. Can't stand stuff laying around. Her parents on the other hand are very very bad. Maybe that's why she does't do it.

 

x2!!!!
Everything has a place, if it don't it finds its place in the trash.

 

six month rule here, if its not a tool and I haven't looked for it, or used it in six months I consider if its really needed.

 

We have a six month rule too.

If we haven't used it in six months we probably forgot where it is and have to buy another one.

I don't hoard. I believe if I no longer have a use for it, it can be a blessing to someone else.
