You should work with your insurance company to determine the available insurance funds that are designated for debris removal coverage in your policy. These funds are referred to as “debris removal designated insurance.” Many insurance companies pay its insureds for debris removal early in the claims process, prior to the county receiving the cost notices or issuing an invoice. Many debris removal insurance payments are lumped together with other coverage payouts. Property owners should ask their insurance adjuster
- Whether the insurance company will pay the County directly when it receives the invoice from the county;
- If payment is not at the time of receipt of invoice, when will debris removal payments be made;
- How much the payments will be; and
- What portions of their insurance policy the payments are made from.
