Contents Restoration: Don’t Throw Everything Away

After water, fire, or mold damage, many homeowners assume their damaged belongings must be discarded. In reality, professional contents restoration can save a significant percentage of affected items : from furniture and electronics to family photographs and important documents.

The Packout Process

  1. Inventorying : every item is photographed, documented, and catalogued with condition notes
  2. Packing : items are carefully packed in labeled containers for transport
  3. Cleaning and restoration : specialized techniques restore items at an off-site facility
  4. Storage : clean items are stored in a climate-controlled facility during reconstruction
  5. Return : items are returned and placed once reconstruction is complete

What Can Be Saved

  • Wood furniture : soot and water damage can often be cleaned and refinished
  • Electronics : ultrasonic cleaning can restore smoke-damaged circuit boards
  • Documents : freeze-drying technology saves water-damaged papers and photographs
  • Clothing and textiles : professional ozone treatment and specialized laundering removes smoke odor
