If you see that a storm is going to hit, with hurricanes you have a decent amount of time to prepare. Just simply use a video camera, and walk around your home or business, and film everything you see. Then, you take that video, and upload it to something like google drive. This way, your evidence is saved on a server in the cloud.
We have seen situations where the entire contents of a home are all over the street. With a Home Disaster Inventory Checklist made out in advance, you will be saving yourself a lot of work. The truth is, nobody does this. This is because nobody expects to ever have to go through something like this.
This will make your life so much easier if you ever find yourself in the position of trying to remember what you owned when everything has been destroyed and is now completely unrecognizable.
If you have suffered a loss due to a disaster such as a hurricane, FAPA, Florida Allstar Public Adjusting, Inc., is happy to help you prepare a list of damaged or lost items that you will need to present for your claim. You can reach us here: 954.659.8333
