I've recently moved from apartment that I lived in for 10+ years. I can understand that. Going thru literally thousands of items (many hobbies, too small apartment in short) and deciding where to pack which and what to throw away is gruelling. If I had choice (I wanted to get deposit back and not leave a mess), I'd leave most of that after picking the most important items, as a lot of them can be replaced cheap for when (or if ever) I will need those items again. But > First, why do people throw away tennis shoes, unopened food etc? Why not take with them on to their next destination? that is just weird (unless food is something that would spoil in few days I guess)
