My only concern is heaving aside everything, because if they are there, they are most likely buried under all the other stuff. This soap opera has legs. About 16 years ago, I built a 4 unit industrial building. Rented out three units and moved my small construction company into the fourth. I thought storing the stuff we always had left over after every job would save money on future jobs. A year and a half later, the space was full. One day I spent 2 hours looking for 20 bucks worth of material I knew was in there. I never found it. It hit me that I had paid a worker to haul stuff there, I would have to pay someone to find and haul the stuff to new sites and I was occupying space I could rent out and create income. 60 days later, all that stuff was in the dump and the space was leased. It got even better, because with no storage space, I started managing orders, deliveries and returns much closer. One more. A few years ago, I decide to unload most of my gun collection and did. The "cool" factor had long worn off and I did not want to maintain and store them. It was a relief to recapture the time that collection needed. I now wonder just how much money and time Americans spend on the cool factor.
