[quote=Anonymous]I would start organizing and tell him you are planning to do so, but don’t throw things out. If he does seem ADHD/Autistic, consider organizing in a visual way. For those types part of the issue can be that they have object permanence issues and they forget that they have things they can’t see. So a wall of shelves with things laid out where they are visible will be more sustainable than a well-labeled stack of opaque bins. For things like VHS, send them all to a digitizing service like legacybox and once they are digitized you can argue for tossing the physical objects bc you have access to the images. In your shoes I would get the garage squared away and then make the rule that anything that doesn’t mean anything to you and isn’t useful can go in the office but useful items can live on the shelves in the garage.[/quote]
