How can I protect paper files from water damage?

Store critical documents in sealed plastic bags or waterproof boxes within filing cabinets, especially in basement storage areas prone to flooding. Avoid storing filing cabinets directly on the floor in flood-risk areas — raise them on pallets or platforms. Fire-resistant cabinets often provide better water ingress protection as a side benefit of their insulated construction.
