How Our Inventory Services Can Help

You might think that home inventory is relatively easy. After all, who knows your home better than you? However, this might not be the case. As the old saying goes, you never know how much you have until you need to count or pack it up. Here at Family Moving & Storage, our experts are trained in inventory management and will be able to account for everything in your home. 

Are you still not entirely convinced? Investing in home inventory services can also help you keep track of your belongings. We already know that the number of belongings you have to catalog can quickly become overwhelming. However, when you also add a move-out deadline and a thousand other responsibilities to take care of, everything might become even more stressful than anticipated. 

If you want to avoid this, hire our team of inventory and moving experts here at Family Moving & Storage. After all, you don't want to settle in your new space only to realize the coffee maker is nowhere around the house!

What To Track For Insurance

While moving, the worst-case scenario can happen at any second. Whether you accidentally break a valuable item or get caught up in a bad storm, you need records for your insurance to compensate you adequately. However, you might not know where to start. Here are a few household items that are especially important for you to record in your home inventory for insurance purposes:

• Furniture sets
• Appliances (including that beloved coffee maker)
• Boxes of memorabilia
• And much more, complete with detail down to the serial number!

Whether you're moving into an apartment or purchasing a brand new home, a moving company can help alleviate the risk of leaving something behind. Family Moving & Storage can keep track of your prized possessions throughout the moving process with our home inventory services. Moving from one place to the next is a journey with the potential for many ups and downs. Let us help you navigate the pitfalls so that you can bask in the splendor of moving somewhere new.

Importance of Home Inventory 

As mentioned before, a home inventory is not only beneficial when you are moving. Once you have a complete list of all your belongings, you will see all of your assets. After living in the same place for years, we all tend to collect many more items than we had when we moved in. By having a home inventory, you can look through your list and see whether you have any valuable items that you forgot about and would like to insure. You can quickly provide your property insurance company with your home inventory to determine what can be insured and add it to your insurance plan. This way, you won't have to worry about having to completely replace an expensive ticket item because the proper insurance is not applicable if it is ever damaged.

Having a home inventory readily accessible also makes filing insurance claims for damaged items much more manageable. Much like the process of getting your essential items insured, you will be able to give your insurance provider a list of all of your valuable items. Forget about having to convince your provider that you did own that professional camera or top-of-the-line laptop! Trying to find pictures of your belongings to show your insurance will bring you even more stress during an already upsetting time. Use our home inventory service, and relax knowing we have it taken care of. 

Importance of a Home Inventory List

Are you tired of having a cluttered garage or spare room? A home inventory list can help. As you go through your list, you can identify all your essential belongings versus the unimportant ones. Create space by removing all your belongings you no longer use! 

A home inventory can also make moving easier. Providing your movers with your inventory list will allow them to give you a proper estimate. That way, you are e knowing that they will come with enough equipment and workers necessary. The last thing you want is for the moving process to take longer than needed because of incorrect planning. 

Prepare for Hurricanes by Inventorying Your Home

On top of eliminating an abundance of moving stress, investing in home inventory services may offer peace of mind for the future. Living in Florida, you're subject to wild weather; the morning sky may be bright, sunny, and cloudless one moment, only to turn into an angry thunderstorm just a few hours later. Additionally, as every Floridian knows, there is the annual threat of hurricanes.

When under watch for hurricanes and less turbulent yet still dangerous tropical storms, supermarkets, home supply stores, and other available resources are flooded with locals trying to stock up on supplies. While extra batteries and non-perishables help keep people on their toes during and after the storm, these precautions don't consider the possibility of long-term material loss.

A Category 5 hurricane, such as Hurricane Andrew of 1992, can destroy thousands of homes and damaged countless more. A storm of this size can devastate even the most astute planners. It can be difficult to imagine returning home from an evacuation only to find no home standing at all if you have never experienced it. As such, some people may not consider preparing for those kinds of damages, despite the importance of a home inventory.

In any event, you're going to want to have a home inventory to confirm your belongings are in safe working order or to track what may have been lost or damaged. This preparation can help you understand what needs replacing to get back to normal as soon as possible. Overall, keeping records may prove a vital step when preparing for the worst.
