As a former Gulf Coast resident and after going through many many hurricanes.. until I finally said screw that and moved..Before you evacuate, clean out your refrigerator Let me say that again.. BEFORE YOU EVACUATE, CLEAN OUT YOUR REFRIGERATOR.

I have been witness, multiple times, of hurricanes taking out power for a week or more. When you come back you will open your refrigerator door ONCE. You will then duct tape it shut and place it on the street with everyone elses refrigerator. It is an expense and landfill nightmare you can save with 20 minutes of food removal.
