The context of the following conversation is Robin was getting ready to move and needed to downsize and get rid of a lot of possessions.:
Robin says My new house is a lot smaller than I thought, I don't think I can bring all this stuff with me.
The friend responds Oh no, well I will take that sofa off your hands if you would like haha.
Robin responds Seriously that would help me out a lot, I need to downsize before I move in.
The friend responds What about getting a storage unit?.
Robin responds That is a good idea, I will store what I don't want to get rid off.
The friend responds Don't throw anything away without asking me please, I am need of household items.
