dh is getting really stressed with this

We're sheduled to move out in about two weeks and dh has tons of his stuff to go through. He brought a lot of it from his parents after his mum moved out into her flat.

He comes from a family of hoarders and I did warn him about it being a problem, but he ignored me and just said it was part of who he was and that was that. We lost a lot of stuff in the flood, but upstairs is still chockablock with crap Hmm Every single room has stuff in it.

I don't have a problem with decluttering, but dh just doesn't seem to be able to do it.

Anyone else have this problem, or have a partner who's like this? What can I do to encourage him to get rid? Of course, he wants to keep a lot of his stuff, but random crap should surely be easy to get rid of? Confused

When you next buy shoes for DCs get the assistant bag them up without the box. Ditto any other boxed good that can be stand being de-boxed
