Preparing for the 2024 Hurricane Season

The 2024 hurricane season is expected to be one of the most active in recent years. Whether you’re new to the area or you’ve been through your fair share of storm seasons, it is critical to have a hurricane preparedness plan in place for your household and landscape. We encourage you to share this resource with friends and family so that we can all begin preparing for the 2024 storm season together.

During hurricane season, we have three major concerns: winds, flooding, and tornadoes.

Hurricanes and tropical storms often produce heavy rainfall, which may result in deadly and destructive floods. Winds from a hurricane can destroy buildings and outdoor items/debris can become projectiles in high winds. Tornadoes can accompany hurricanes and tropical storms.

The Greenery’s Storm Response Plan

At The Greenery, hurricane preparedness stays on our radar throughout the year. As a storm approaches, our goals are to shelter close by and monitor any activity. As the storm occurs, we start to prioritize in preparation to help as many people as we can.

Our post-storm plan includes responding as one coordinated team with many arms completing a wide variety of tasks. We have tractors and mini loaders for moving large tree trunks and limbs, plus dump trucks and trailers for moving large debris. Our depth of manpower, coupled with equipment, machinery, and additional vehicles, makes us the most prepared landscape company and best equipped to respond to a crisis in the region.

Excellent selection with knowledgeable and courteous staff! I’m not plant savvy, but was able to share a picture of a plant I wanted and they were able to identify it and locate it for me in the nursery. I’ll definitely come back!
