Inventory Checklist/Supplemental Estimating Tables

Below is a comprehensive listing of many of the items found in the home and office, along with the estimated amount of cubic feet each item will consume. The room-by-room listing will come in handy in preparing an accurate inventory of your move.

This listing can also be used to calculate the size storage unit you'll need. For items that are not listed, you can figure cubic feet by this simple method:
LENGTH (inches) times WIDTH (inches) times HEIGHT (inches) divided by 1728 equals CUBIC FEET.

Next, you'll have to figure the number of cartons you will be storing and their space requirements. Most people are surprised at how many cartons they end up needing, so try not to estimate low. Refer to the PACKING section to get an idea of the number you'll need.

Once you have figured the total amount of cubic feet required for your goods, you can easily determine the size storage space needed. Simply refer to the storage unit size page within this site.
