Household Inventory Guide

 

 
How much can you lose?
To claim under your insurance policies for loss or damage to your personal property, it is necessary to provide the Adjuster with a complete inventory of the property destroyed or damaged.

We suggest you print out and complete this form. While it will take time to fill out, it may save you money, should a serious loss occur.

If the total amount of the inventory form comes to more than the amount of your insurance, you will have to contact your Broker to arrange additional coverage.

Replacement Cost
If your policy provides for this, then us the Estimated Replacement Value column also. If you do not have this and wish details, please contact your Broker.

Special Limits
Certain property has dollar limitations. Check your policy and if values exceed these limits, then you can arrange specific insurance as required. These items include - jewellery, watches, precious and semi-precious stones, furs, fur garments, garments trimmed with fur, manuscripts, stamps, coins, collectible cards and comic books.

Important
Keep this inventory in a safe place away from your home.
