Safety first in Hawaii

Stay well away from any downed wire and anything touching it. Call 911 for injuries or lines down, then the utility.

What you can safely do

  • Stay inside during the storm and away from windows on the side facing large trees.
  • Afterward, look for hangers before walking under any tree.
  • Check whether your city is running a curbside debris program before paying to haul brush.
  • Keep all receipts. Tree work may count toward insurance or disaster-assistance claims.

Leave these to professionals

  • Don't run a chainsaw on wood that's bent, pinned or twisted. It can spring violently when cut.
  • Don't approach any tree near downed lines. Lines can be live even when the power is out.
  • Don't hire a company that wants full payment before starting.
