ya, got THAT right!
about a week after my father died a few years ago, my mother (a wonderful woman BTW) didn't hesitate to order up one of those big metal dumpsters and have it parked in the driveway, and we emptied the basement of all my father's "treasures". it took three people two full days to do it. you should have seen that poor semi tractor lumber down the road while the bin teetered side to side behind. apparently my father equated value with weight! in the back of my mind (knowing what was in there) i had a suspicion that something illegal was taking place.
unfortunately, it brought only about enough at the city dump for all three of us to enjoy a Happy Meal.
