Pack Outs

As you stand looking at the wreck of your home or commercial property after a disaster, you have to wonder, “What is going to happen to all my stuff?”

You may fear the loss of precious memories, valuable items, or business records.

It’s tempting to assume everything is lost. It certainly looks like it.

But it is possible to recover many items after a flood, fire, hurricane, or other disaster.

A pack out service from WMCR will help preserve some of your important belongings.

What Is a Pack Out Service?

A pack out service retrieves items from a residential or commercial location after a flood or other major disaster creates significant damage.

But it is more than just throwing everything into boxes and piling them in storage.

A pack out service specifically preserves and ensures the quality of your belongings.

The pack out service can help save items in your home or business after you probably thought they would be gone forever.

The three steps of a pack out service are retrieval, storage, and restoration.
