If you put your stuff in a hard plastic and airtight container it might last a few years. Eg our Cmas decorations have made it for several now. But, if you just stick stuff up there unprotected, don't forget it's as much the humidity as the heat ... the combination is not good.

in general, if you don't really need it, the attic is only a last resort for stuff you truly need.
