Jacksonville, Florida-based Water Damage Restoration Plus of Jacksonville is helping the community prepare for hurricane season. According to the company, this season runs from June 1 to November 30 in the Atlantic Ocean.

When hurricane season rolls around, the company says, it is vital that residents of Florida make plans and get ready. Preparation is key, and it can go a long way in keeping an individual or family safe.

One of the most important parts of prep is to have an emergency supply kit ready. Ideally, an emergency supply kit will contain an emergency food and water supply, an emergency medicine supply, emergency power sources such as flashlights (with extra batteries included), safety and personal items, important documents (including medical documents, wills, passports, and personal identification) and a fire extinguisher. Depending on the specific needs of each individual, there may be other items added to such a kit, but the ones listed should be considered necessary.

In addition to having an emergency supply kit prepared, there are other steps Jacksonville residents can take. Writing down emergency phone numbers (and keeping them somewhere accessible, near phones) and programming emergency numbers into phones are both excellent actions since it can be dangerous not to be able to contact emergency services in times of need.

It can also be useful to locate the nearest hurricane shelter and plan out different routes to get there. In case there are no shelters nearby, people should learn how to find them in the event of a hurricane. Jacksonville residents who have pets should make sure they pre-identify shelters, a pet-friendly hotel, or an out-of-town friend or relative where pets can be safe during an evacuation. Local animal shelters can be a good place to go for advice on what to do with pets in case there is an evacuation.

Graham Duke from Water Damage Restoration Plus of Jacksonville says, “Hurricane season can be quite terrifying, and if you are not prepared for it, you can really find yourself in a terrible position. This is why we want to do our part to make sure our community can be prepared for any emergencies that might occur during this hurricane season.”
