Fire Recovery: Filing a Claim

(THEME :02 AND UNDER)

Andrews:
I'm Richard Andrews, director of the Governor's Office of Emergency Services. This is an EnvironMinute Disaster Advisory from our agency and the National Safety Council. :10

Announcer:
If your home or property has been damaged by fire, keeping detailed records will help speed up your insurance settlement. Take pictures that show the damage — both inside and outside your home. Next, carefully sort damaged property from undamaged items for your insurance adjuster to examine. Get rid of damaged property that poses a health hazard or gets in the way of cleanup efforts. But keep a good list of all the items you discard, with brand names, serial numbers, prices, and purchase dates. Finally, make a list of any missing property. And get your undamaged property under shelter — to prevent further losses. :34

Announcer:
This EnvironMinute Disaster Advisory was brought to you by the Teresa and H. John Heinz III Foundation. :05
