Turn off and secure utilities (Water, Gas, Electric)

Search and rescue people.

Recover property that might not be damaged or hold sentimental value.

Investigate the cause of the collapse. This is usually the most important one why it’s not removed. Insurance may be invalidated if it’s removed strait away as no cause of the incident has been established and all evidence would have been removed.

Once a cause has been established, the Insurance company will then pay to have everything removed and rebuilt.
