Garages and storage units become black holes — you forget what's stored where, buy duplicates of things you already own, and waste hours digging through boxes. There's a better way.
You packed those boxes months — or years — ago. Now you need something and have no idea which box it's in. So you drive to the storage unit, open box after box, and either find it after an hour or give up and buy a new one.
Americans spend over $38 billion a year on self-storage. Much of what's stored is forgotten, duplicated, or never accessed again — simply because there's no way to know what's inside without opening every box.
Cratify lets you label every box with a QR code, organize your storage by zones or shelves, and scan any box to see its contents instantly. No more guessing, no more digging, no more buying duplicates.
Four steps to a fully organized storage space.
Add your garage, storage unit, or shed as a location in Cratify. Give it a name you'll remember.
Create "rooms" for different areas — left wall, top shelf, back corner. This helps you find boxes without scanning every one.
Create boxes in the app, photograph the contents, and print QR labels. Attach them to the outside of each box.
Next time you visit, scan a QR code to see every item in that box — with photos. Or search for a specific item to find which box it's in.
Absolutely. Create your storage unit as a location in Cratify, then set up zones or shelf areas as "rooms." Create boxes for each container, photograph the contents, and print QR code labels. The next time you visit your storage unit, scan any box to see exactly what's inside.
Cratify's QR labels are designed to be printed on standard label paper or card stock. For garages and storage units, we recommend using waterproof label paper or placing labels inside clear packing tape for extra durability. The QR codes are high-contrast and scan reliably even with minor wear.
Yes. Cratify lets you share your storage inventory with family members or anyone who needs access. They can scan boxes, add items, and search the inventory from their own device.
Writing on boxes tells you a general category, but not what's actually inside. Cratify gives you a complete, searchable inventory — with photos of every item. Instead of opening five boxes to find your camping gear, you search "tent" and Cratify tells you exactly which box it's in.
Cratify requires an internet connection to sync data and use AI features. However, you can photograph items and create entries at home before heading to the storage unit, then simply attach the pre-printed QR labels when you arrive.
Label every box, photograph items as you pack, find anything at your new home.
