Home Inventory

Home inventory

A record of what you own and where it lives—especially useful for stored items, not just what is on open shelves.

What it means

A home inventory lists household items and where they are kept. For stored goods, the inventory should answer what is inside closed containers—not only what is visible in a room.

Why it matters

Insurance, moving, and daily life all go smoother when you can prove what you have.

Example

Documenting holiday decor, tools, and backup linens before a move.

How Totely helps

Totely focuses on stored household items with photos, search, and family sharing.
