Weathering the Storm

A quick list of things to do before, during, and after a severe weather event.​

BEFORE

  • Gather all your supplies and important documents.​
  • Sign up for free emergency alerts.​
  • Take photos and videos of your property (inside and out).​
  • Prep your property for a storm to lower the risk of damage (see below).
  • Know your evacuation and shelter options​.
  • If recommended to evacuate, do so immediately. ​
  • Update your pet’s microchip information and include their needs in all your planning.

DURING

  • Protect human life at all costs. ​
  • Don’t leave your home until the storm has passed. ​
  • Designate an interior location with no windows on the lowest level.​
  • Be aware that flooding can happen quickly. If you're home, turn off all electricity at the main breaker. Watch for rising water and move to higher ground if water approaches.​
  • Use a National Weather Receiver or other emergency alert service to hear updates.​

AFTER

  • After the storm has passed and it is safe to do so, assess possible damage.​
  • Prevent further damage to the best of your ability, including calling one of Slide's pre-approved emeregency services vendors (list below).​
  • Should you need to file a claim, do so as soon as possible. Slide policyholders can file a claim by calling (866) 230-3758.
  • If you have flood damage and do not have a flood policy, contact FEMA.
  • Learn about your rights when working with contractors and be aware of Assignment of Benefits fraud.

Emergency Supplies & Go Bag Checklists

We’ve seen many emergency supply lists in our days, and they always seem either too much or too little. ​We wanted to create an emergency supply checklist that was just right.​

Prep your property for a storm.

  • Secure or bring inside any unattached items that could be tossed by a high wind. Items such as trash cans, patio furniture, and potted plants.​
  • Trim and remove tree branches that are close to your home.​
  • Protect windows with storm shutters or plywood sheeting.​
  • Clean out drains, gutters, and downspouts.​
  • ​Take photos and/or videos of your home, both inside and outside, to document your contents and home features. This will help accelerate the claims process should you need to file a claim.
