I heard a radio piece about a popular new book or website or something by some woman about decluttering that is very popular. I think the message was that if an item brings you joy, keep it, otherwise get rid of it. http://www.amazon.com/The-Life-Changing-Magic-Tidying-Decluttering/dp/1607747308
I'm sure there's more to it, but that's what I got from half-listening to the piece. I'm assuming that deciding what to keep and what to pitch is at least as big of a challenge as the mechanics of getting rid of stuff. Many of us go with "it might be useful some day" but it sounds like you need to cut a lot deeper than that, as do I.
Edit: Missed that this was the same book Rodi mentioned earlier.
