Household inventory

Here's how to prepare your inventory...

• Create a separate list for each of these categories or print this convenient form
• Furniture and appliances, listed room by room
• Clothing, listed for each person
• Computer equipment and software
• Books, tools, toys, bicycles, and other items
• Credit cards, and who to notify if they are lost or stolen

Also...

• Don't forget to list all items in your basement, garage and yard
• Keep the sales receipts for all major purchases. Keep your receipts at a different location such as a safety deposit box
• Update the lists as you purchase new items or dispose of old items
• Keep a copy of the inventory in a safe place away from home, like a safety deposit box
• Review your inventory annually, preferably 30-60 days before your insurance renewal and advise your broker of significant changes

An easier way to take inventory... simply videotape your belongings

• Be sure to record a detailed image of all the items you would include in the paper lists
• Remember to update the tape every year to include any new items
• Be sure to keep the video tape in a safe place away from home such as a safety deposit box
