How can I find an item after packing it into a moving box?

Create rooms and uniquely named moving boxes, then assign each possession to its current box or location. Search an item name, tag, model or serial number to see the full location path. Moving a box to another room updates the path for everything inside it; selected possessions can also be moved individually.

Your possessions and documents are shared across the four inventory tools
