What is a home inventory and why do I need one?
A home inventory is simply a detailed list of the stuff you own and should be a big part of your theft or disaster recovery plan.
Your up-to-date inventory will help you purchase the correct amount of home owner insurance protection, get your insurance claim settled faster if you suffer property loss or damage and verify losses for your tax returns.
However, even the best home inventory is not worth much if you can't find it after a fire, flood or other disaster. And keeping your inventory on your home computer is fine until it gets stolen or destroyed.
Enter StuffSafe - a FREE solution that keeps your inventory securely online where you or your insurance agent can get quick access.
How do I start making my home inventory?
Cataloging all the stuff you own can be a daunting challenge so start with the big ticket items like appliances, computers, home electronics, jewelry, furniture and power tools.
Gradually work to the less expensive items like books, linens and clothing. For each item, give a brief description, date purchased, make, model, serial number (if appropriate) and replacement value. A photo of the item is helpful too.
How do I get started?
Creating a StuffSafe account is fast and easy! Just enter your email address and name to get started - no phone number, address or billing information. Your account is free forever and you cancel your account at any time.
Once you create an account, just follow the instructions for adding locations, rooms and items to your inventory.
In case of emergency?
On any computer with an internet connection, you simply log into your StuffSafe account. Then, you can print or download your entire inventory.
Also, you can let your insurance agent, partner or friend have read-only access to your StuffSafe account with separate passwords. Read-only access means that the user will not be able to add, edit or delete anything in your inventory - the user can only view, print or download your inventory.
Multipe locations
You can add an unlimited number of locations (home, office, lake house etc.) and separate inventories to your StuffSafe account.
