Cleaning and Removing Debris After A Storm
An important part of the disaster restoration process is the cleaning and clearing of debris from storm damage done in your home or business. Storms, floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes are natural disasters that cause damage to both your building’s structure and the content inside. Natural disasters can generate different types of debris such as pieces of destroyed buildings, sand, tree limbs, gravel, personal property, appliances, and other wreckage.
Although every storm is different, they all create a tremendous amount of debris that must be removed and discarded safely. All debris removal must be done in a safe manner. Debris may also contain hazardous substances that require special care. Our certified and trained damage restoration team can be on site within hours to assist with these matters, to make sure all debris removal is safe for people and the environment.
Types of debris that are generated vary depending upon the kind of disaster:
Tornadoes
For tornadoes, the main damage occurs due to rotating winds of very high velocity. Generally, debris consists of green waste, destroyed structures, as well as personal property.
Floods
Debris commonly generated by flooding consists of mud, household items, structural damage, and sewage waste.
