How to Keep Your Documents Safe From a Natural Disaster
As people make the decision to flee or hunker down during a natural disaster, most thought goes to making sure they have their basic needs met. Of course, food, water, and shelter come first, but your planning should also include protecting your personal and financial documents.
There are a number of ways to do this and even those in the path of Hurricane Irma can still take some steps to protect their most important paperwork. Ideally these moves would be made long before disaster strikes, but even as time dwindles, or even during a storm, there are things you can do.
