Have lots of stuff delivered. Keep the boxes and bubble wrap for those I send.
I live in a small new build so fed up with the clutter. Where does everyone put theirs? What am I doing wrong.

When I volunteered in a charity shop, they were always grateful for donations of bubble wrap for customers who bought glasses, china etc. Might be worth a try.
I put boxes in the recycling.

I just recycle them but if you plan on keeping some for postage can you fold them flat and store them somewhere until needed? Bubble wrap in a bin bag tucked in a cupboard or under bed?

Fold the boxes flat until needed and store behind shelves or under a mattress, back of the wardrobe, under the sofa.
For bubble wrap I’d suggest that you designate a space for it (a convenient drawer or box) and once it’s at capacity donate any extra that comes in.

I've flattened boxes and stored them behind the sofa before, now I just recycle.

Pile them in the garage and do a monthly tip run with it all

I have a wrapping cupboard with a stock of parcel packaging, bubble wrap and padded envelopes and wrapping paper etc. Most of cardboard boxes go into recycling though.

Golf flat and slot down the side or behind wardrobes and chest of drawers
