I could order one online, but I'm sour on the idea now. To do this I'll have to spend $200-300, bring it home and assemble it. Then spend a couple weekends of labor hauling it in my car from the storage unit (which is in another town) to the house. Not willing to go through all that effort for someone else's stuff. Getting another friend or family member to take them is probably the best solution. Well, I couldn’t find a garden storage cabinet big enough at the local big box stores.

Alternatively, does your friend (box owner) have any other good friends in the area that you could ask to take them instead?

I think keeping the best few of each is a great idea and be positive that you WILL find the information again if you need it.

I loved the comment about taping episodes of Clean Sweep. Funny. Recounting your challenges of getting rid of little stuff as well as other people's stuff was enlightening. It seems perplexing that you deal with other people's clutter -- pass it on. I too am dealing with getting rid of a storage unit.

Just not feeling like I have any control over this situation. Maybe I just have to accept that I am going to keep renting the space because I have no place to put all those boxes.
