That's true. I did it too when I moved out from our apartment. We have things away serially, like every week days there would be new items, and I got "scolded" by another person living in the building. He/ she (suspect she's a she) said that I am creating a trash problem in the apartment, and asked me to throw the things away after 24 hours of no one taking them. I discussed this with my wife and we decided not to throw the things away onl after 24 hours. We decided to throw them away after a week.
