I'm trying to reorginize my apartment to be less messy and man IU've realized I have a crapload of boxes....DVD boxes, game boxes, CD cases, and my freaking closet is stuffed with a dvd player box, Dell computer box, printer/scanner box...etc..etc...

Where do you put all this stuff, for those of us that have limited space.....

Also, their is a 95% chance I will be moving at some point in the next 12 months... which complicates the problem further.....

I getting really frustrated with all the clutter but, I dunno what I'm going to do with all this stuff...

I recently browsed through about 120 data CD-Rs I've been compiling since 1998 or so. A lot of them were temporary backups that became archives. I tossed about 90 of them in the garbage. What sucked is that many of them had just a handful of files worth saving out of dozens or hundreds. Tons of duplication. And I didn't know what was on most of them because I always put some highly generic label on the CD ("backup"...."old files"...."files"..."stuff"...et al) lol!

Now onto the collection of shipping boxes I've been stashing away every time I order something, believing I will need them some day. :confused:

We store large boxes in the rafters of the garage. We'd use the attic if we didn't have the rafters. I keep my DVDs in the cases so nothing to store there. I game boxes I throw away and just keep the case and the manual.

I have a whole closet full of boxes and other crap from my computer and everything else. I also have another closet full of suitcases and boxes. I make the room for them because I don't want to throw them away, as I may resell these items.

I usually keep them all in a huge storage box in the off chance that I will sell the games some time.
