Hurricane Season Is Approaching

Hurricane season is approaching and SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties is prepared to help with these storms that affect other areas. Here are some ways that you can be prepared if you are in the path of a hurricane.

Have An Emergency Kit: Keeping an emergency kit stocked with water, canned foods, non perishables, blankets and toys for children could be the difference between a disaster and an inconvenience. 

Gather Documents: Make sure you understand your insurance policies ahead of time to see what is covered and if flood insurance is available to you. Gather important documents such as insurance policies, IDs, birth certificates, deeds, or even sentimental documents and keep them in a fireproof and waterproof safe. 

Being Informed Is Important: Always know where to go and who to call in an emergency. An evacuation plan being in place in the event of a disaster will ensure that you know what to do in case your home is not the safest place to be during the storm. 

Protect Your Property: Try and protect your property as best as you can ahead of the storm by boarding up windows and moving items inside that are not anchored down.

Implementing some of these tips could help you minimize the risk of your property being a victim of the upcoming hurricane season.  SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties will be available to help with this storm season and help get your home back to normal.
