Here's how you can get ready for the hurricane season.

Protect the things you love.

Must haves

 

Stock up on non-perishable packaged or canned foods and drinks for at least 14 days. Ensure that you have cash, flashlights, portable charging devices, a battery-operated radio, and a non-electric can opener, along with life jackets, gloves, batteries, enough water and disposable utensils. 

First Aid

 

Grab a first-aid handbook, bandages, antibiotic ointment, pain killers, soap, wipes, hand sanitizer and anything else that will assist you with minor cuts and injuries.

Home and Auto Insurance Policies

 

Check that your policies are valid and that the coverage is adequate and make sure to store your policies in a safe place. Take an inventory of your home and belongings. 

Important Documents

 

Be sure to secure your health insurance cards, insurance policies, medical records, passport/ travel documents, banking and legal documents. Pro-tip: scan and upload these documents to a cloud/drive.
