Take a picture of it with your digital camera and keep it on your computer. Then when you need to go back to it, you 'have it', but it's not taking up physical space in your house.
The other trick I learned is to put things in this category in a box and put the box somewhere out of the way, like in the basement or the back of a closet. If you really need something close to you, you'll go back and get it out. If you don't, and it's been in the box for a year, you can just get rid of the box - don't even open it before you get rid of it or you'll just go through this all over again.
