RE: Food Lost During a Power Outage
I lost all my food and checked with my insurance company they said I had a 500 dollar deductible I had to pay.

After the hurricanes, we found that it really helped to take a snapshot of the spoiled food as we emptied the freezer and refrigerator as well as listing it.

Food lost is exempt from the deductible for my insurance. So it's well worth looking into. All they needed was a broad list of items I had lost and the replacement cost.

RE: Food Lost During a Power Outage
Generally homeowners insurance has a $500 or more deductible so it'll be a wash and not worth filing a claim for.
Editors Note: I recently had this happen and my insurance company had a food replacement policy that was not part of the deductible. They covered up to $500 for a refrigerator and $500 for a freezer. It's worth checking with your insurance company.
