Spring and Summer are just around the corner and for many parts of the U.S. that means dangerous weather conditions are as well. No one can truly predict storm threats or their impact.

If you find yourself in the path of a storm or have experienced a personal disaster, Go Mini’s is proud to partner with several disaster recovery companies across the C.S.R.A. to deliver fast, simple storage solutions so your home repair teams can get you on the road to recovery quickly.
Here are a few tips and resources to help you prepare to repair.
Watch out for Weather
Depending on your climate there are a variety of natural threats that can pop up throughout the year. Storm systems and “acts of God” often leave homes with various degrees of damage. In addition, homeowners can experience singular threats, like electrical fires or plumbing issues that lead to flooding. Some of the top reasons homeowners need disaster recovery services include
- Tornados
- Brush Fires
- Electrical Fires
- Floods
- Hail
- Damaging Winds
Post Storm Damage
In the events of a major storm your home may suffer water or wind damage. If the damage is minimal, consider these next steps:
Look For Signs of Damage
When assessing storm damage you will want to look out for:
Roof Damage

- Missing Shingles
- Large Dents
Exterior Damage
- Missing Bricks
- Missing Siding
- Broken windows
Interior Damage
- Standing water
- Mold/ Mildew Growth
Contact Your Insurance Provider
Once you have assessed the damage it’s time to reach out to your insurance provider to file a claim. An adjuster will come out and review the damage and provide details on available compensation based on your coverage so you can prepare to file a claim.
