When a major flood or fire strikes your home, the structural damage is only half the battle. Your personal belongings—furniture, heirlooms, electronics, and clothing—are at immediate risk of secondary damage from moisture, soot, and mold.
The Need for Speed
In a water damage scenario, high humidity levels in the home can cause wooden furniture to warp and mold to grow on fabrics within 48 hours. In a fire, acidic soot will permanently etch glass and tarnish metals if not removed promptly. An emergency pack-out removes your items from the hazardous environment immediately.
Detailed Digital Inventory
Before a single item leaves your home, professional restoration teams create a comprehensive digital inventory. Every item is photographed, barcoded, and documented with its current condition. This is absolutely critical for your insurance claim and ensures total accountability.
Off-Site Cleaning and Storage
Once packed, your items are transported to a secure, climate-controlled facility. Here, specialized technicians use advanced techniques like ultrasonic cleaning for hard goods and ozone chambers for soft goods to remove smoke odors and contaminants. Your items are safely stored until your home is fully restored and ready for move-in.
Why Not Leave It In The House?
"Trying to restore a home while it's full of furniture is like trying to paint a car with the doors closed. A pack-out allows our crews to safely remove damaged drywall, extract water, and run heavy equipment without risking damage to your prized possessions." — Xavier
