Hurricane Preparedness: Know How to Report Property Damage

After a hurricane or other significant weather event, reporting damage to your property is an important part of the recovery process.

Damage.LA.Gov, a virtual damage reporting system launched by the Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (GOHSEP), allows Louisiana residents to self-report damage following hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, wildfires, winter weather, and other disasters.

When it is safe to do so, keep these tips in mind when reporting damage:
✔️Take clear photos of all damage before beginning cleanup or making temporary repairs.
✔️Document damage to your home, vehicles, structures, and other property.
✔️Provide accurate information about the location and extent of the damage.
✔️Keep photos, receipts, insurance information, and other important documentation for your records.
✔️Remember that submitting a damage report is not the same as filing an insurance claim. ✔️Contact your insurance provider separately when appropriate.

Report property damage at Damage.LA.Gov

What about storm debris?

Following a storm, Ascension Parish Government will provide residents with information on how to report storm debris that needs to be collected.

Knowing where to report damage before a storm happens is one more way to make sure you and your family are prepared for hurricane season!

Hurricane Preparedness: Prepare Your Home 🏠

Taking steps to prepare your home before a storm is one of the best ways to protect your family, property, and peace of mind.

Before severe weather arrives, remember to:
🌳 Trim trees and shrubs to reduce the risk of falling limbs.
🪑 Secure or bring inside outdoor furniture, grills, and other loose items that could become airborne.
🪟 Install hurricane shutters or have pre-cut plywood ready to protect windows.
📁 Store important documents in a waterproof container, including insurance policies, birth certificates, Social Security cards, passports, marriage certificates, and banking information.
📸 Document your property by taking clear photos or videos of your home and valuables for insurance purposes.
🧰 Prepare an emergency supply kit with enough food, water, medications, and essentials for at least three days. Don't forget the unique needs of children, older adults, and pets.
🚗 Fill your vehicle's gas tank before a storm approaches.
❄️ Set your refrigerator and freezer to the coldest setting to help preserve food if the power goes out.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Make an evacuation plan and establish a meeting place or communication plan for your family.

Don't wait until a storm is in the Gulf—take time now to prepare your home and protect what matters most!
