Bear in mind that you can't just hoard shit in there, though.

I agree.
I'm single so it's easier for me to minimize clutter, but every time i've moved I've thrown more things out. Right now, pretty much everything I own gets used, except for books that sit on the shelf that I haven't looked at since I first read them, but whatever.
I don't buy random garbage and don't understand people that hoard all sorts of junky little trinkets.
