    Taking a Household Inventory

Use this form to get started on your inventory.   List major items in each room.  Note serial numbers, purchase prices, present value, and dates of purchase where possible. Attach any available receipts. Ask your insurance representative to assist you if you have questions.

You also can take advantage of free, downloadable Home Inventory Software, developed by the Insurance Information Institute, to help you document and store important information about your belongings.

Be as thorough as possible. The more detailed the inventory is, the more effective it can assist you and your adjuster if you experience a loss.
