In this video, our ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons technicians are performing an on-site packout after major water damage in a Skokie home.
When water affects a property, it’s not just the structure that’s at risk — personal belongings, furniture, electronics, and heirlooms can also be damaged. That’s where our packout and content cleaning services come in.
During a packout, our crews carefully inventory, label, and remove items from the affected home. Belongings are then transported to our secure facility for specialized cleaning, drying, and storage. Once the property has been fully restored, items are returned in pre-loss condition whenever possible. This process allows homeowners to safeguard valuables while ensuring the structure can be dried, disinfected, and rebuilt without obstruction.
