Disposophobia

Since it was initially coined & trademarked by Ron Alford, founder of Disaster Masters, Inc. in 1995, the definition of disposophobia has been maligned by so called experts, but though it has some links with what we now call hoarding, Disposophobia is still defined as “The fear of getting rid of stuff".

Disposophobia is an evaluation of a person that relates to their belongings. It is a thought process for every human that decides on the value of their possessions. Disposophobia is an internal thought, by a human, with relationship to their possessions.

Disposophobia, simply put is a fear of disposing, or getting rid of, personal belongings, such as money, jewelry, or last week’s newspapers.
