    Contents Cleaning Services

    Our Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out Services Process

    On-Site Assessment & Inventory

    Room-by-room walkthrough with barcoded tagging, photo documentation, and category coding (salvageable, non-salvageable, high-value) so nothing is missed and every item is traceable back to the claim.

    Professional Pack-Out

    Trained crews carefully wrap, box, and load contents into padded, climate-controlled trucks. High-value items, art, and electronics are crated separately. A signed inventory manifest leaves the property with you.

    Ultrasonic Cleaning

    Hard goods (kitchenware, tools, blinds, figurines, chandeliers, metal furnishings) are submerged in tanks where high-frequency sound waves lift soot, smoke residue, and biological contamination from every crevice.

    Esporta Wash System for Soft Contents

    Clothing, linens, plush toys, leather, and shoes are cleaned in a hydraulic wash system that restores an average of 85% of items considered non-salvageable by conventional laundering, including items exposed to Category 3 water and heavy smoke.

    Ozone & Hydroxyl Deodorization

    Odor molecules from smoke, mold, and biohazard events are broken down at the molecular level in sealed chambers. Ozone for unoccupied items, hydroxyl for sensitive materials like electronics and photographs.

    Electronics & Media Restoration

    Corrosion neutralization, ultrasonic circuit-board cleaning, and controlled drying for TVs, computers, audio equipment, and appliances. Data recovery coordination for damaged drives.

    Document & Photo Recovery

    Vacuum freeze-drying and desiccant drying for water-damaged books, paperwork, photographs, and vital records. Ozone and gamma treatment for mold-contaminated documents.

    Art, Antiques & Heirlooms

    Specialty handling for oil paintings, framed art, antiques, firearms, wedding dresses, and family heirlooms. Coordinated with certified conservators when items require museum-grade treatment.

    Climate-Controlled Storage

    Secured, monitored, temperature and humidity controlled vaults. Access is logged, contents are insured while in our custody, and you can request specific items back at any time.

    Pack-Back & Placement

    Once your property is ready, we return every item to its original room using the inventory manifest. Furniture is reassembled, art is rehung, and a final walkthrough confirms nothing is missing or damaged.

    Local Expertise

    Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out in Salt Lake City

    Salt Lake City Belongings and Local Loss Patterns

    In Salt Lake City, the aging infrastructure of the historic grid in The Avenues and Capitol Hill presents a constant risk to personal property. Original clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipes are prone to sudden failure, which can lead to sewage backups or interior floods. These events often soak belongings stored in basements and ground-floor rooms, introducing contaminants that require professional-grade cleaning and sanitization.

    Spring snowmelt off the Wasatch Range causes the water table to rise, leading to seepage in homes built on the bench, such as those in Federal Heights and the upper Avenues. This slow moisture intrusion can go unnoticed behind furniture and in closets, fostering mold growth on textiles, leather, and paper items. The unique soil composition near the mountain can also lead to mineral staining on belongings affected by groundwater.

    Fire and smoke damage in Sugar House and Liberty Park is often exacerbated by the older construction materials found in bungalow-era housing. Soot from these fires can be highly oily and difficult to remove from the lath and plaster walls and the items within the rooms. Rapid pack-out and cleaning are necessary to prevent the permanent absorption of smoke odors into furniture, clothing, and porous decorative items.

    Salt Lake City Contents Pack-Out and Restoration

    Our Salt Lake City team provides a comprehensive inventory and pack-out service that meets the specific needs of the city’s historic and modern homes. We use digital tracking to document the condition of every item, ensuring a clear record for insurance purposes in neighborhoods like Sugar House and Millcreek. This organized approach helps protect your belongings from further damage during the restoration of your property.

    We specialize in cleaning a variety of local item categories, including high-end furniture, textiles, and specialized gear for mountain activities. In areas like Federal Heights, we often handle valuable antiques and fine art that require delicate restoration techniques. Our facility is equipped with specialized tools to remove soot, water stains, and odors from a wide range of materials.

    Electronics cleaning is a critical service for Salt Lake City residents with home offices and modern entertainment systems. Soot and moisture can cause internal corrosion that leads to circuit failure if not addressed quickly. We use specialized cleaning agents to remove these contaminants from internal components, often saving expensive equipment and preserving important digital data.

    Restored items are kept in our secure, climate-controlled storage facility to protect them from the fluctuating humidity of the Salt Lake Valley. Once your home is ready, we perform a systematic pack-back, returning every item to its designated place. This service is available throughout Salt Lake County, providing a seamless transition back to your restored home after a loss.

    FAQ

    Contents Cleaning & Pack-Out Services Questions

    A pack-out is the professional removal of your personal belongings from a damaged property so the structure can be dried, cleaned, or rebuilt without your contents in the way. You typically need one after significant water damage, fire and smoke damage, mold remediation, biohazard events, or major reconstruction. Getting contents out early prevents secondary damage and speeds up the structural work.

    Yes. Standard homeowners and commercial property policies cover pack-out, cleaning, and storage as part of the contents portion of your claim. We document every item, photograph its condition, and provide adjuster-ready manifests so the process is approved and reimbursed without friction. Non-salvageable items are itemized separately on a loss list for replacement.

    More than most homeowners expect. Modern cleaning technology, the Esporta wash system for soft goods, ultrasonic tanks for hard goods, hydroxyl and ozone chambers for odor, and vacuum freeze-drying for documents, routinely restores items that would have been thrown away a decade ago. On average our contents team restores 70 to 90 percent of items initially thought to be a total loss.
