Don't be fooled by the title, we're not talking about devices taking over the world (although that is a distinct possibility). This post is all about how you can take control of your devices. In today's increasingly connected world, even school kids have multiple devices. Cell phone, tablet, laptop, computer, printer, TV streaming device, wireless speakers; chances are you own several of the ones mentioned and a few more besides. While they all have different uses they have some similarities as well. They all have accessories and other parts that need to be replaced from time to time. When your device was new you probably pulled out the parts that you needed and left the extras in the box. Do you know where to find them now?If you lose a part do you know where to find the information you need to buy the correct replacement? Do you have a graveyard of half empty device boxes cluttering up your house? If you use Stockpile easy home inventory system you would be able to answer yes to the first two without having all those half empty boxes on hand. Keep reading to learn more about how Stockpile can help.
The easiest way to get started is when you purchase a new device. As you're unboxing the latest and greatest technology you can add the item record. You'll have all the information you need right at your fingertips and it will only take a few minutes to create an item record. Since Stockpile is fully customizable you can choose which fields you add to your record. You can include details such as where you're going to keep the accessories that you aren't going to use right away and specifics that you would need if you had to buy a replacement part of any kind. Most people keep the original box for a device just to store the spare parts because they think it will make it easier to locate them later. This usually doesn't work out so well. That box takes up space and it gets pushed around and moved from spot to spot until you're no longer sure where it ended up. By the time you need to get something from it you have no idea where to look. Thanks to areas and locations you can store all your accessories and spare parts in one drawer and you'll always know where they are.
Often, it's months or even years before you need to buy a replacement part for a new device. By that time you're not sure what size, style, etc you need and the store is full of an overwhelming array of choices that all seem similar. What do you do? If you have Stockpile, you access your item record and you have all the specs at your fingertips so that you can be sure you get the right part the first time.
Adding older devices to Stockpile easy home inventory system isn't as hard as it might sound. Just find that box graveyard and start adding the details from the packaging. Chances are you have a collection of owner's manuals as well. Since most of that information is available online you'd be better off adding some specs in Stockpile (including a link to the owner's manual online) and recycling all that paper.
