I’m looking for something that can help me create an inventory so that later it’s easier to find things in boxes.
A spreadsheet
Spreadsheets are such a killer app.
Anybody know a good TUI spreadsheet app that can import and export csv, or even just a TUI csv editor? I have been unable to find one.
Take pictures of the stuff and label the boxes with e.g. “kitchen 1”
I doubt you need more than a notepad app. It’s what I used the last two times I had to move between countries and it was more than enough for me and customs. I simply wrote down important stuff as I put them in numbered boxes.
Spreadsheet are overkill, a note app is easy to access on your phone at all time and can be easily shared with someone.
Here’s a sample of what I ended up with:
- 15 - camera stands / shoemaking tools / notepads / trophies / guitar cable / weaved basket X2 / cooler bag / curtain rings X 3 /
…
- 25 - Nespresso coffee machine, Italian coffee maker, plates & dishes, kitchen utensils.
- 26 - casserole, dishes, plates, kitchen stuff
- 27 - casserole, cups
- 28 - wedding dress, photos, various cat stuff, photo bag
Sketch up or an easy cad program so you can easily measure your stuff and the rooms to find ways to fit your furniture. I used sketch up when I moved and just a top down 2d quick line drawing of our house. Then measured our furniture as objects and moved them around to see where we could fit and what direction to put our bed etc
I’m not sure. I only recently switched to Linux and was thinking of trying ondsel but haven’t really looked into it further. But I also still have a windows vm on my server with sketchup 2017 in case I need to do anything with that to convert my sketch up projects
I found this posted in opensource. Seems to be exactly what you all want :)
