Vehicle Evacuation Checklist
Your step-by-step guide to protecting your vehicle before, during, and after hurricane season.
Pre-Season Planning (March – May)
Review your vehicle insurance policy for hurricane and flood coverage gaps.
Book pre-season vehicle transport to an inland safe location and save up to 50% vs. emergency rates.
Identify your top 2-3 inland destination cities for vehicle storage or family relocation.
Document your vehicle: take photos of exterior, interior, odometer, and VIN plate for insurance.
Early Season (June – July)
Monitor NOAA and NHC forecasts weekly — subscribe to email and SMS alerts.
Keep your gas tank at least half full at all times for personal evacuation.
Ensure your vehicle battery is in good condition — extreme heat weakens batteries faster.
Peak Season (August – October)
If a named storm forms, confirm your vehicle shipping reservation immediately.
Remove all personal items and valuables from the vehicle before shipping.
Disable your vehicle alarm to prevent false triggers during transport.
Hurricane Approaching NOW
If you cannot ship, move vehicles to the highest ground available — avoid flood zones and trees.
Park inside a concrete garage if possible. Avoid carports and structures with large windows.
Do NOT attempt to drive through standing water — 12 inches can float a vehicle.
Call AlligatorShipping for emergency evacuation options — limited availability, first-come basis.
