Things we once took for granted like going to the coffee shop to meet friends, learning in a classroom face-to-face, and even simply going to work became challenging due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Furthermore, billions of people around the world were ordered to stay at home to help curb the coronavirus pandemic.

Protecting them with hurricane shutters and impact windows is not only a good idea but will save you money on your Homeowners Insurance. Are you adequately covered?

Here are some tips to consider when it comes to protecting your property.
Prepare a home inventory
Knowing what items in your home is important but especially so if you’re preparing for a natural disaster. Record the item number and serial number will help ease the process of filing insurance claims and simply trying to remember the items will be challenging.
Keep your landscape free of debris
Fox News suggests pruning trees and removing dead branches well before the hurricane shows up. Also, remove any patio furniture and other loose items outside that can get blown around.
