SERVPRO of Farmington and Farmington Hills contents warehouse

A water damage to your home or business is nothing short of a catastrophe and a headache, but that's why SERVPRO is here to help. You may be wondering what happens to all your damaged items and what to do with the things that are dry...well that is what we like to call a Pack-out. 

Our technicians are highly trained and certified to take care of your most sentimental items to the junk drawer that you dread cleaning out. Here is a short run-down of the pack-out process...

In the first steps of the pack-out, in conjunction with your insurance, we will assess your affected and non-affected contents to help give us a better idea of what we will be disposing of and what we will be packing up to either clean or store. Once we have a scope of work, we can provide an estimate to you and your insurance company and begin to go through your contents. We use specialized software to take a photo inventory of each individual item we pack in which a list is submitted to you and your insurance company. Upon leaving your home or business, your contents will be stored in a climate-controlled facility. We update you every step of the way to ensure a quick and easy process.
