Inventory templates

Inventory templates list the items you own or hold, with counts and details. You will find home inventories, stock inventories and equipment inventories.

Include item name and description, quantity on hand, location, purchase date and value, condition, and a notes area. Take photos of valuable items and note serial numbers. Update the list at a set time each year, such as the first week of January.

Open a template and choose Make a copy. Fill in a table with one row per item and columns for quantity, location and value. Add rows as you go.

A list of your belongings helps if you need to file an insurance claim after a loss. It also helps when you move or plan an estate. Store a copy outside your home.

A stock inventory tracks goods you sell or use up, so the counts change often. An equipment inventory tracks tools and devices that stay in use, with details such as serial numbers and condition.

Stock lists need updating each time items arrive or leave, or at least weekly. Home and equipment lists are fine to check once or twice a year.

Start with Equipment Checkout Log: Log equipment loans, see who has each item and flag anything overdue for return. If that is not the right fit, compare it with Inventory Tracker.

The templates here are 1 to 5 pages long. Cut any section you do not need; each template explains what its sections are for.
