Be Ready When The Earth Shakes #3

Earthquakes make things move, shake and  fall:

• check windows
• anchor bookcases, cabinet doors, refrigerators, water heaters (it's the law), furniture
• heaters and stoves
• other large appliances
• have flexible connections for gas appliances
• air conditioners
• use plastic containers instead of glass
• secure overhead lights and fans
• anchor wall items above beds
• keep hanging objects away from windows
• place heavy objects on lower shelves
• properly store toxic materials or cleaners
