[fusion_dropcap boxed=\”no\” boxed_radius=\”\” class=\”\” id=\”\” color=\”\” text_color=\”\”]T[/fusion_dropcap]he record-breaking 2020 hurricane season produced 30 named storms that led to a ton of damage*. To protect yourself and your property from the 2021 hurricane season, we put together ten tips for you, ensuring you stay protected in New York.

1. Plan Your Evacuation Route

If you should need to evacuate to avoid a storm, you want to know the appropriate path ahead of time. If you have time, practice taking the evacuation route so you know where you are going.

2. Prepare a Bag To Go

Gather supplies to take with you that will last a few days. If you have kids or pets, you will need to take even more care with your packing.

3. Stock Up on Supplies

Before the hurricane warning is issued, you want all of your supplies. Once the hurricane is announced, the store will be cleaned out of the goods you need. Stock up on:

Batteries
Candles
Matches
Plywood and tools to make emergency repairs
Prescription medications
Plenty of drinking water for a week
Food that doesn’t need to be cooked or refrigerated
First-aid supplies
Portable NOAA weather radio

If you need to evacuate, make sure these supplies go with you.

4. Take Inventory

Go around your home and document your belongings. If you can do this on video, it’s the best evidence. Just make sure you take the inventory with you if you evacuate or keep it in a flood-proof safe.

5. Review Insurance Coverage

Make sure you have the policy needed to cover your losses. The team at 1800Adjusters can review your policy with you to ensure coverage for your Long Island property.

6. Protect Your Home

There are many ways to protect your home, including:

Replace rocks and gravel with shredded bark
Cut weak trees and branches down
Install storm shutters
Install hurricane proof exterior doors
Use tempered glass sliding doors and cover them with plywood during a storm
Seal any outside wall openings and vents

7. Protect Your Business

Hurricanes can create a lot of damage to your business. Create a plan for your business, just like you did for your home.

8. Monitor the Weather

Even if you aren’t interested in weather forecasts most of the year, now is the time to start watching. Storms can crop up unexpectedly, so you want as much time to prepare as possible.

9. Help Those Who are Vulnerable

If you have older neighbors or family members, help them create a plan as well. They might need your help when the time comes to act.

10. Call 1800Adjusters™
