How early is too early to prepare your property for hurricane season?

Year-Round Prep
Generally speaking, the best thing you can do year-round is to regularly inspect your property’s trees for any signs of decay. If you notice any of the following signs, it’s important to call in a professional right away:
- Gray, flaky roots
- Branches that are unseasonably bare, especially around the tree’s crown
- Mushroom growth around the tree’s roots
- Large cracks or gouges in the tree’s bark
- Total and extended absence of birds, bugs, and other critters on or near the tree
Decaying trees are likely not to be able to withstand hurricane-level winds and, if left on your property, can cause some serious damage. As soon as you notice signs of decay, call a trusted professional who can advise you about how to move forward.
The Summer Before Hurricane Season
When a Hurricane is Coming Our Way
- Cleaning out your gutters (or touching them up if you took care of the bulk of the cleaning recently)
- Having your property professionally maintained and checked for signs of decay
- Removing all furniture, decorations, and other loose items from the outside of your property
- Removing any dead or decaying trees with the help of a professional
- Stocking up on safety essentials, like water, nonperishable foods, flashlights, batteries, sandbags, and wooden boards for your windows.
- Consulting your county’s safety guidelines for any location-specific safety steps, like shelter information and flood zoning.
