What to do if my divorce decree stated I was to arrange a 3rd party to pick up my personal belongings from marital home within 10 days of the filing of the judgment but I didn’t?

The final judgement was 10 months ago. I was unable to retrieve my things in that time. The ex did allow my 3rd party to pick up a few items a few months ago but now won’t respond to my requests to pick up the balance of my property that was listed in the final judgment. How would I go about getting my belongings back?

The best way to go about getting the balance of the items you are entitled to receive despite a delay on your part is to write the "ex" asking for a date and time for such and if not agreed to, then you will need to file a petition with the court seeking what you desire. You might need to consult with a family law attorney for assistance.
