Climate changes can cause the weather to do unpredictable things and homeowners can prepare for natural disasters by make home inventories.

Making a home inventory is easy – you create a detailed list of household belongings and their approx. value.

This can be accomplished by walking through each room and making notes as to what is in the room, opening drawers, closets, etc.  You may also choose to make a video of the contents of your home.

The key to keeping a home inventory safe from a home disaster is to keep the inventory list off your premise.

This can be accomplished multiple ways.

• Open a lock box at a bank
• Use a smartphone app
• Use a free internet service

The Insurance Information Institute has free online home inventory software that you can use, Know Your Stuff.
