How do I get rid of all my doom boxes?

Yesterday I committed to a massive clear out. We simply have too much stuff. I want everything streamlined and simplified with a place for everything. I have doom boxes as part of household administration and in the garage. Any tips please?

We did throw out most stuff in the loft because once it goes up there the only things that get used are Christmas decorations and suitcases.

If you need it - organiser it / use it.
If it brings you joy - put it somewhere visible.

If neither of the above apply ie those ikea instructions and spare allen key... declutter and get rid.

We sorted our cables and chargers recently and DH put one of those Dymo labels on all the ones that needed keeping so we know what they are, anything that wouldn't marry up with a useable item went out

I have today thrown away a box full of cables and earphones which have not been used for years.
Five minutes later DS24 who is visiting asked if I had any old earphones🙄
I have ordered a photobox that stores 1600 photos. That should clear some space.
