Saving text messages

Hi, does anyone have any recommendations please for a way of copying text messages from an Android phone onto a PC ( ideally free ! ). I really just want to be able to save old messages in a text format so I can delete them from my phone ( to save the clutter ) but still be able to read them later on.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.

Take a look at MySMS.
I've been using it for years, their yearly subscription option (£7.99 per year) give you the option to copy all SMS's to services like Evernote / Dropbox / Google Drive or Direct to your email address (either one at a time as they come in or as a zipped archive of all stored SMS's)
MySMS also gives you the ability to receive and send SMS's from your PC or tablet.Laters
