How to Create an Inventory of Items
Many people hesitate to use self storage because they fear they will lose track of what they put in their units. Luckily, there’s a very simple solution to this problem. If you take the time to create an inventory of the items you have in storage, you never have to worry about misplacing or forgetting about something again.
Take photos
If you are storing boxes and boxes of clothing and small trinkets, it can be difficult to take photographs of every item. However, if you are only putting furniture or other large items into your storage unit, it shouldn’t take long to snap a picture of each item. You can either keep these photos on your phone or upload them onto your computer.
Label boxes
Clearly label each box with a description of what’s inside and a number. After each box has been assigned a number, open a spreadsheet or grab a clipboard and write down each box’s number and a summary of what’s inside.
Do it as you go
If you are going to create an inventory list, it’s important to keep up with it. Every time you visit your storage unit to add or remove something, you must update the list otherwise there is no point in having it.
