I did the same thing last night. And am still in the process. Part of our moving things around was to make the dining room a dining room again, instead of an office. So we're getting rid of the "executive desk" with the secretarial arm (it was HUGH) and we put in a computer armoire. So the table is now in there as well.
I have a four drawer filing cabinet full of crap. We're getting rid of it and I'm allowing myself one plastic storage bin and one file bin. If it don't fit in that, we can't keep it.
When we were unpacking my m-i-l, wife wanted to keep the wardrobe packing boxes (the type where you hang your clothes in the box). "They're good boxes, and we can use them for storage."
Baloney. I'm the only one who could haul 'em up into the attic.
She don't know it yet but they're out at the end of the driveway awaiting the recycling truck.
