What Walmart and Sam's Club are Doing to Help
We try to anticipate which products will be in greater demand before and after a hurricane, based on our experience from past disasters. Then we work to make sure the stores in the path of the storm have what they need to serve our customers. Learn about our Community Giving efforts.
Before a storm, people are looking to prepare for what may come, especially if they are faced with prolonged periods of power outages, so ready-to-eat foods are extremely popular. Of course water is in high demand, as are propane, flashlights and batteries.
Our stores and clubs will remain open as long as conditions allow. If a mandatory evacuation is ordered, we will close our facilities with enough time for our associates to seek shelter for themselves and their families.
