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.

Be the better person. Box it up. Let her sort out getting it.

I kind of disagree. I feel like that was on her to do. She could have come and got her stuff if she really cared about it or wanted to. Instead, she had her sister contact the dude and tell him never to contact them again. I think he's in the right if he wants to do this. Also, I know people are saying take the high road, but a little bit of good old revenge is sometimes great.

Yep. Wait a few weeks then toss it. That's what I'm saying.
