How SERVPRO's Pack-Out Service Can Help You Restore Treasures After Flooding in Vancouver

When flooding happens, SERVPRO of E. Vancouver / Clark Co. has it under control.

Benefits of a Pack-Out During Flood Damage Recovery in Vancouver

Whether the flooding event in your Vancouver traces its source to storm damage, appliance malfunction, or plumbing fail, your home and its contents are knee-deep in water. Both your belongings and your house’s structure need help fast to survive this catastrophe. Often the best approach is to pack out furnishings, household goods, and personal possessions, transporting them to our production facility.

Flood damage in Vancouver requires the completion of many tasks inside your home. If the contents remain in place, our technicians need to work around or move heavy pieces of furniture and continually shift boxes of possessions. If the flooded areas are clear, we can complete the water removal and structural drying procedures in a much more straightforward manner. A clear area also minimizes any floor or carpet staining and eliminates moisture load from wet possessions.  Creating the warm and dry air appropriate for speedy drying is far easier to do after a pack-out.

Meanwhile, the items packed up and moved to our production facility receive the individualized attention they need. We document and track the articles with the SERVPRO Contents Claim Inventory Service (CCIS), a comprehensive and secure system using lists, photos, and barcoding to organize your property.

Our technicians both at your home and at our headquarters master the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) training pertaining to their specialties. Our Contents Processing Technician (CPT) evaluates the condition of the items and designs each a restoration plan. Our production facility employees have a broad range of cleaning, drying, disinfecting, deodorizing, and other resources available to transform flood damaged articles back to functionality and appearance.

Throughout the project, SERVPRO is in contact with your insurance company, providing the supporting evidence necessary for proving successful claims for restoration or replacement. We keep you in the loop as well, respecting your opinions and priorities during this stressful time.

SERVPRO of E. Vancouver / Clark Co. is well-qualified to meet your flood mitigation and remediation needs both onsite and in our production facility. Contact us at (360) 254-0049 immediately after the waters rise so we can create the best plan for your circumstances.
