Wildfires can move quickly, and when evacuation warnings arrive, there may be little time to decide what to take, where to go, or what to do next.
Preparing before a fire is nearby can give you and your family more time to leave safely.
We put together a Wildfire Evacuation Checklist covering what to do when you're Ready, Set, and told to Go, plus important steps for documenting your property and losses after a fire.
Find the full checklist at the link in our bio. Save this post before you need it, and share it with someone who lives in wildfire country.
If you are told to evacuate, leave immediately. If you feel unsafe, don't wait for an order. Always follow instructions from local officials.
