What ever you have, you can get again. No need to hoard anything.

Other than quest specific legendary or unique items, though holding on to most of those is more a collector choice.

just break down your junk and put it into your storage, if you have legendary's you don't want. Either put them up for sell when you get your own player vendor. Also can trade it for legendary scrip at a legendary exchange at local train stations. Break down unwanted weapons / armors for resources and have a chance at learning a crafting mods for them. Use perk cards to decrease weight on stuff you carry. Keep leveling up to craft a level 50 backpack to give yourself extra carry weight. Sell stuff to npc vendors. You can't sell junk, ammo, gold bullion items, quest items, misc items. Plans, To npc vendors.

You can buy those from another player.

Use the component search for materials that you deem important.
Then every time you come across something with the component you are looking for it will have a magnifying glass icon next to it.

use armor parts with weight reduction, 5x weapon weight seems best, also max str, and use appparel underamor with strength boost linings, and the standard backpack from boysscouts.max your weight reduction perks, again wepons beginning with heavy weapons seems best, but you can run all to a degree.
fallout doesnt have a max item limit, it is weight.

The first step is admitting you have a problem. The rest of the steps are ways to deal with having a full inventory and stash.

1) Check your inventory and see what is taking up all that space.

2) If it's junk items, are you scrapping everything before you stash it? Are you keeping way too much scrap you can easily replace? Pay attention to what you are using and set a par level. Keeping only what you need that you can't get easily. Some things like ballistic fiber and adhesive, you want to keep. Steel, wood, and concrete? Don't need quite so much.

3) What ammo are you carrying? If you're carrying a lot of a particular caliber that you never use. Drop it, recycle it, and stop picking it up. Big thing that takes up space are grenades, mininukes, missiles. Newbies hold on to them thinking they are going to be cool. They aren't. They just occupy space in your stash or inventory.

4) Check your ore. Are you picking up lots of it, but never smelting it?

5) Check your gunpowder. It's on the Misc tab and can easily be missed. Pick up enough and suddenly you are very weighed down.

6) Get your set of armor and when you find other pieces, do an instant evaluation between what you're wearing and what you found. If it's better, swap it out, if not, look to see if it might be worth something. If so, put it in your camp vendor. If you aren't going to use it or sell it. Scrip/Scrap it.

7) Same for weapons.

8) Check your food tab. How many gallons of water are you lugging around? Sell the excess. Same for other food and alcohol items. If you don't regularly use them. Don't keep them. That rainy day rarely if ever happens.

9) Lastly, check your aid tab. How many stimpaks, do you need to carry? Same for Radx/RadAway. Save yourself a few over what you use in a regular day of play, and dump the rest.

Keep everything you find. It's all important. Once you're at 100% capacity, shut down internally because there's still so much more that needs to be collected.

[Jeydee3]

Use cards trick to reduce weapon & ammo weight so you can keep them on you. Sell your useless lengendary weapons/armors, just keep the best.

[felmari]

recycle your sold weapon/armor by turning them into scripts if they do not sell for a while and they are not epic. break down normal weapons/armor you learn mods from them and get components. keep only things for your build and some edge case gear. power armor attach to chassis and store you only need a couple probably as well. junk make sure you are breaking them down to base components then storing as well you can sell some if they get sizable. cook food and keep some but you can sell as well if you get too much or let it rot and turn it into fertilizer. plans can add up if you sell all learned ones and will start to add sizable weight give/drop em when they do not sell for a while.

they added a weight increase recently which makes it quite a bit less tight but as always with any limit it will still take some management. what is important is relative but there is still things you can do.

[lucg]

Maybe, begin by trying to keep, let's say 200 items of each and then adjust (more for this, less for that) as you will. Steel, wood are easy to get, so ... . With the SBQ events, you will have enough repair kits to maintain all your weapons/armors/PA.

This makes no sense... Legendaries and Unique items (especially as rewards from Quests) you will likely never see more than one of.
Also, you need a certain amount of material for doing many things (Crafting, Repairing, etc)...you can't just have 1 of each material or Sell absolutely everything to have an empty Stash and call it a day. You won't be able to Repair anything lol

@OP
If you pay for Fallout 1st, you get a container that can keep all Junk (for crafting, repairing, etc) and is unlimited in storage. I tried it for a month and it's amazing.... Then, if you stop for a while, you can still take out your Junk material as you need it (but you can't put things in if you aren't subscribed/paying). If you find you want to pick up everything, or have anything you might need by doing so, maybe get that.

Sorry, but in question you answered, same as Elder scrolls online, pay for storage, and it is only for scrap, items, you are hard coded to well now 1200.
