Consider looters and how to protect your property, place a sign with dangerous dog inside, if you can rig up something to play barking sounds that would be ideal, but obviously other priorities.
Render large expensive items temporarily useless - if example maybe you can't take your new 50" TV but maybe remove one of circuit boards on the connector panel, same with washing machines on control panel, expensive juicer (just a difficult to replace small part), and so on. Power tools? Heavy and more difficult but hide them at least.
- chrsstrm 9y agoSeriously? We're talking about fire here, and in case you hadn't seen, take a look [0]. There's nothing left after it passes through. Nothing. http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/California-fires-aerial-photos-of-wine-country-12264966.php http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/California-fires-aerial-p...
- sitepodmatt 9y agoNot familiar with the area, the OP says 'might', not 'will', if the fire doesn't pass through then you've got a lot of empty houses and emergency services with attention diverted elsewhere. If looters aren't near and ready to take advantage should the fire miss certain areas I'd be very surprised.
- Tempest1981 9y agoThere were stories of looters in evacuated neighborhoods. CHP was patrolling for them. Not every evacuated home burned.

I can't think of anything more pointless than choosing to damage your items which are all easily replaceable and covered by insurance.
