Importing your existing inventory from a spreadsheet

Already have a list in a spreadsheet? Bring it into WardenLock in minutes by matching up your columns, then add photos and receipts.

If you have already started a home inventory in a spreadsheet, you do not have to type it all again. WardenLock can bring your existing list in and get you up and running in minutes.

How it works

  • Save your spreadsheet as a file and upload it (most spreadsheet apps offer a "CSV" option when you save — that is the one).
  • Tell WardenLock which of your columns is the name, which is the room, which is the value, and so on.
  • Bring it in, then go back through and add photos and receipts to each item.

After it's in

A spreadsheet is a great head start, but the real value comes from the things a spreadsheet cannot hold — photos, snapshots of receipts, and serial numbers. Once your list is in, walk through your home and add those finishing touches to the items that matter most.

Could you prove what you own if it were gone tomorrow?

WardenLock helps homeowners and renters catalog everything they own — with photos, values, and receipts — so insurance pays what you're actually owed. Free to start.
