Returning Home after a Flood

Preparing to return home after evacuating will keep you safer while inspecting and cleaning up the damage to your home. Before traveling, ensure local officials (RDCC or your LGU) have declared that it’s safe to enter your community and that you have the supplies you will need. Follow the suggestions below for returning to, inspecting and cleaning your home.


Items to Take When Returning Home:

* Important phone numbers
* Bottled water and non­perishable foods
* First aid kit
* Cleanser/hand cleaning gel for personal use
* Hygiene products and toilet paper
* Insect repellent and sunscreen
* Long­sleeved shirts, long pants, sturdy waterproof boots and work gloves
* Flashlight, portable radio and extra batteries
* Cameras for photos of damage for insurance claims
