When we sold ( years ago - a very different realty time) we rented s storage place and filled it but still filled a 15 yard dumpster with stuff after giving away what we could. Luckily with the MS messing up my memory, anything we thew out wasn't that important, I don't miss anything. Be ruthless. DH company paid for the haul, thank goodness. Even after the "cleaning" we had 17 years worth of stuff!!
