Renovating? Track Every Item That Moves

During renovations, furniture and belongings get shuffled to temporary locations. Items get lost, damaged, or mixed up between rooms. Cratify keeps track of it all.

The Problem with Renovations and Your Stuff

You are remodeling the kitchen, so everything gets shoved into the garage. The bathroom is next, so those items end up in the spare bedroom. Within a week, your home is a maze of displaced belongings and unlabeled boxes.

When the renovation finally finishes, you cannot remember what was in which room. Items are missing. Something got damaged during the move, but you cannot prove what it looked like before. And those boxes in the garage? You will be opening them one by one for weeks trying to find your things.

How Cratify Solves It

Cratify lets you catalog items before the renovation starts, track where they are temporarily stored, and put everything back when the project is done. Label boxes with QR codes so you always know what is inside, and use location tracking to see where every box went.

  • Pre-renovation catalog — Photograph everything before work begins
  • QR-labeled boxes — Scan any box to see what is inside
  • Location tracking — Know where every box was moved to
  • Damage documentation — Timestamped photos prove pre-renovation condition
