With hurricane season now upon us, it’s highly likely that it will be more terrible and frequent than in recent years. As a result of climate change, storms are growing increasingly powerful and prevalent, therefore you must be prepared for worse intensity and frequency of calamities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is some advice from<\/span> UNITS Moving and Portable Storage of Central Long Island<\/span><\/a> on how to bounce back after a natural disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Prepare an evacuation plan<\/b><\/h2>\n

Knowing your vulnerabilities is at the core of disaster preparedness. Do you live in a high-risk flood zone? Is there a maximum number of people that can stay inside your home? Will you have to deal with problems on your way out?<\/span><\/p>\n

If local authorities order you to leave, do it right away. Follow the instructions of the emergency personnel when confronted with a potential risk. Allow several hours to vacate your home and develop alternative plans in the event routes are blocked. Make sure your house and any outside objects that might become dangerous missiles in a storm, such as patio furniture or potted plants, are secure.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Have a go-kit ready<\/b><\/h2>\n

Make a list of what you’ll require in the case of an emergency. Fill a bag or container with all of your vital items. Include cash, a two-week supply of prescription drugs and medical supplies, and fully charged cell phones and adapters in your go-kit.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Use a checklist to make sure you don’t forget anything in the stress of the moment<\/b><\/h2>\n

A great resource with a disaster response checklist <\/span>is the American Red Cross<\/span><\/a>. FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, <\/span>is also a good resource<\/span><\/a> for evacuation planning.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. If your resources are tight, be creative and seek help now to be ready<\/b><\/h2>\n

Do you dread the extra money it takes to purchase bulk goods and water? Collect and clean used soda or juice bottles instead of investing in gallon jugs. If you want to preserve non-perishables at home, look into your neighborhood food bank.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Take the threat seriously<\/b><\/h2>\n

Natural catastrophes are far more destructive than ever before. Storms have gotten considerably stronger, traveling at greater speeds and costing a lot more to repair and recover from. They’re happening with increasing frequency, therefore the price of repairing them and recovering from them is rising.<\/span><\/p>\n
