Other resources for the adjuster:
A Reliable Vehicle
A reliable vehicle is so important as a field adjuster because you will be doing a lot of traveling. Take into account where you might be traveling, and what tools you currently have that will need to fit into your vehicle. Will a large ladder fit? What happens if you’re responding to claims and there is still flooding, road damage, or debris — is your car able to drive in those conditions? And, what impression do you want to give to policyholders when you pull up? We do recommend SUVs or trucks, but many adjusters make it work using sedans; the key is reliability.
Laptop Computer
A reliable laptop computer that runs the software systems you will be using as an adjuster is one of the most important tools. You will want to pick out a laptop that is lightweight and durable. You need a laptop that can smoothly run Xactimate, has enough storage, and has great battery life. Not only do you need a reliable laptop, but you need to secure your laptop.
