I have a basement full of stuff I don't want. I just wish I could get rid of it on ebay easily. I have my room full of cobras, dinosaurs, and monsters. That is enough.

When I was managing an apartment complex I had a tenant that was a hoarder. The apartment was only 550 sq/ft. Well, I had to evict her for non-payment of rent. She had left the place abandoned and my maintenance staff and I needed to get the place ready for renting. Well, needless to say I could barely open the door. The smell was absolutely a punch in the face. We figured something had died in there. There was boxes of junk piled high to the ceiling. There was no way anyone could possibly live there. Upon trying to get to the kitchen I noticed little plastic tuperware containers all over the place filled with liquid. I mean literally a hundred of these containers were scattered throughout the place. Well I knew right then and there it was urine. This woman had her fridge full of tuperware containers full of urine. The only clean area in that whole place was her bathroom. The worst part about it was it was during the summer and the humidity was horrible!!
I just hope she was able to get help for her problem. Seriously though, that's just crazy!

my dad was a serious packrat, never got as bad as hoarding
he could fix anything for anyone, but he would take screws and nuts and bolts out of things before he would throw something away...we had a hell of a garage to go throough when he passed away..... the bad thing is its hereditary...cuz now my garage looks like his. and my youngest son (8) has it also, we will be walking in a parking lot, and pick stuff up and want to take it home, i will ask what he is going to do with it, and he will say ''i dont know yet, i will think of something''....we never let him keep the stuff

itz tough because hoarding boarders on this sort of metaphysical level...
... or esoteric... where the objects kind of call out to the person. mundane totems searing with a viral obsession. makes it very hard to get people to see what they are doing.

Her entire bedroom was nothing but boxes and tuperware containers. I have no idea where she slept until 6 days later when most of the junk was gone. She had a mattress in the living room.
I saw my share of wierd shit working as a landlord. Nothing like walking into the stench of death only to find a 300lb guy dead from a heart attack at the age of 32! He had passed away a week earlier. |

Sorry didn't get a close enough look to read the label, my eyes were too busy burning from the fumes.

I feel for you man. I'm pretty sure my mom is a hoarder. It can be a serious emotional problem. I know it's problematic enough that it's made me think twice about even collecting Joes. I don't want to start down that path. Even now, I've thinned down my collection and am trying to keep it slow-growing. It all starts with the plastic crack addiction.

Its weird I dont have these tendancies in real life, but I do in MMORPGs like wow, Ill keep tonnes of junk thinking ill use them, then when my bank and inventory is full I just go f*** it, and sell them, then it happens all over again.
