Moved to a 1920s era 4 square, the house of our dreams, from a 3 b.r. ranch. We were going to sell the ranch, but were not completely moved when my husband was diagnosed with cancer. We moved back to the ranch, and stayed there, sold the big house after he passed. I was basically moving from 2014-2019. Really glad I didn't give up our rental storage, and my daughter shared hers with me. I just got everything back to the ranch or my storage last year.
My Mom gave me a full-sized version of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, in a shelf. I've had it for years. My husband and I went to a local house auction, got there late. The auctioneer was selling a box of books and without even looking, I bid and got the box for .75. When the assistant, gave it to us, it was an entore set of the smaller edition of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica! I got to say, "Oh Monte, Monte, I already have a set of these!" lol Anyway, I still have both sets. Crazy.
If I move from this house again, I am taking a bare minimum and auctioning off the rest. Maybe 
I've told family and friends that if there is something they want, but not right now, to tag it with their name. Glad my grand daughter got behind that.
Happy Monday!
