Does anyone have a parent who is a hoarder?

Funny this reappeared. My mom passed in April, and I had to clean out her house June-July. Had a 25x12 dump trailer I filled twice, plus a couple other loads in my truck and probably 5 loads to Salvation Army. That’s not counting the furniture and dads woodworking stuff I kept. 5.5 tons of junk is what I removed if I remember correctly. This is out of a 980 square foot house with a basement. Absolutely insane
So sorry to hear about your mom

and did those ’56 encyclopedias end up being worth anything?
