First Steps After a Storm Hits

1. Assess for Immediate Danger
Your first priority should be safety. Look for:

  • Live electrical wires entangled in trees
  • Branches leaning dangerously over walkways
  • Cracked or splitting tree trunks
  • Trees resting on structures or vehicles

If power lines are involved, call 911 and your utility provider first. Do not approach or attempt to remove the tree.


2. Document the Damage
Take photos of the affected areas for insurance claims. This includes:

  • Damage to your property
  • Condition of the tree before and after
  • Areas affected by fallen limbs
