After floodwaters enter your residence, it is easy to assume most of your possessions have been damaged. However, you can save essential belongings from your flooded home by using our pack-out service. Restoring your contents is just as crucial as repairing your home. Remember that personal items can become permanently damaged if you do not restore them in a timely manner.

When a flood damages your residence, it is vital to remove the floodwater, disinfect the areas, and dry your home. The furniture, appliances, and other personal items may inhibit restoration efforts, and your belongings may not receive the personalized care they need if they remain in your property. At SERVPRO of Burlington, we offer content cleaning and pack-out services that can help you salvage your personal items that floodwater has effected A pack-out service operation consists of three steps.

    •    Removal
    •    Storage
    •    Restoration

With our pack-out services, you can salvage precious items like prized furniture, clothing, rugs, and electronics, even important papers or pictures. Our technicians can separate your possessions to determine which ones to clean onsite and which ones to transport to our facilities for more effective restoration.

Our technicians take a detailed inventory of your items. We take every precaution to prevent breakage and maintain a proper list of the items. Since it is time-consuming and costly to move contents out of a home, we can implement some cost-saving strategies that can help you and your insurance firm save money. This often involves moving small items out of a home and cleaning and storing appliances or large furniture items at the loss site. The onsite cleaning process is usually efficient and quick.

We then take the items that are better restored off-site to a secured facility where our trained team cleans, deodorizes, and restores them to their original state. For things like electronics, we can work with professionals who repair ruined electrical equipment. After restoring the contents, we store them until you are ready to have them back in your house.

If floodwaters have affected the contents in your home SERVPRO of Burlington can help you restore them.
