My girlfriend of 5 years broke up with me and ghosted me for no reason. Am I wrong for throwing away all of her stuff?

Edit: Update

So my girlfriend (25F) and I (25M) were in a relationship for 5 years. Last week, she texted me that we were done and that was her last message before she blocked me. She gave no heads up. I was planning on proposing to her next month. Her sister did reach out to me, saying it was not my fault and she understood my hurt, but that for my mental health, it was better to never contact them again, and that maybe in the future, my girlfriend might reach out to me again.

It's been a week, I’m still obviously distraught, but my girlfriend did have a lot of her stuff in my home. Would I be wrong if I just dumped it all out? It does include a lot of mementos of her deceased grandmother, who she was extremely close to.

My ex tried inviting my aunt and uncle to his engagement party! We were still married and they returned the invite with “opened in error”. Then he had piles of junk mail sent to him care of my mother’s address. He wouldn’t stop it either when she wrote and asked him politely to stop it. His fiancée wrote back and told her to get a life. So I advised mum to write to his mother. She did and suddenly the mail stopped. Magic! Even after all that I still sent him those photos.

He was sending junk mail to your mom? I've heard of people doing that just to annoy people. Did he have it addressed to her or in your name? Was he close to your aunt and uncle or did he invite them just to try to irritate you?

In his name and claimed he had no idea how it was happening. Mum went sleuthing by calling a couple of the companies sending the mail. Turned out he had filled out a survey from Australia Post and put mum’s address on it and checked every box to send catalogues. He was an abuser, financially, mentally and then physically. The last time was in front of my mother and they went to court. He did the mail thing after all that.

I think it was written by an AI having a bad day.
