A regular post would not be a bad idea at all - I don't mind helping out if you're looking for volunteers. Although I regularly find stuff to declutter, I tend to collect it up so a bulk load goes at once and as much as possible gets either recycled or donated in one form or another.
Speaking of which, I only came upstairs to look for a pen so that I could label some things that I was getting rid of by donation, then I turned on the computer to check on a hoped for email. I'd actually been in the middle of some major decluttering. There are currently four full boxes in the hallway waiting to go and some bags - this may be more than I can fit in the car and at least one of the boxes is heavier than I can lift - unfortunately good size sturdy boxes don't seem to be easy to come by at the moment (I don't want to spend anything on them - which is why I'm not using the plastic crates that I currently have around the house as I'm not going to be bringing them back from the donation point with me). I sometimes acquire boxes from the local supermarket but of late the only ones they've had have been the ones that hold about 6 bottles of wine - that's great when I'm getting rid of paperback books and the like - unfortunately the stuff I'm getting rid of is too big for that to really work well this time round.
