What this sheet is for
List what you own before you need to, so a claim or a police report starts from a document rather than from trying to remember a burgled room.
Who it is for
Homeowners, renters, landlords furnishing a let, and anyone who has just realised they could not list their own possessions.
How to use it
- Work one room per sheet, photographing as you go.
- Record serial numbers for anything that has one — it is what identifies recovered property.
- Note where the receipt or proof is, even when the answer is that there is none.
- Keep a copy away from the house: a relative, a workplace, cloud storage.
- Update it when something significant comes in or goes out.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Room by room, what you own, what it cost and where the proof is — written before you need it.
Ask your insurer what they will accept. After a fire or a burglary, almost nobody can list what they owned. This is the sheet that answers for you. Insurers set their own requirements for what they will accept, so ask yours what they want before you rely on it — no sums, valuations or cover categories are printed here.
How to use this sheet
- Work one room at a time and photograph as you go — a photograph is worth more than a description.
- Record serial numbers for anything that has one.
- Note where the receipt or proof is kept, even if the answer is 'nowhere'.
- Keep a copy somewhere other than the house: a relative, a workplace, cloud storage.

Questions
Will my insurer accept this?
Ask them. Insurers set their own requirements for evidence, and they differ. The sheet prints no sums, no valuations and no cover categories — its job is to make sure the information exists at all, which is the part people leave until it is too late.
