Storage

All contents are stored in secure, climate-controlled facilities. Items are never mixed with other claims and are locked at all times.

Storage isn't just about keeping things out of the way. How contents are stored during repairs determines whether they'll be ready to return in good condition or damaged further. Climate control, security, and organization all matter.

Why Professional Storage Matters

Climate control prevents secondary damage

Fire-affected contents need lower humidity to prevent mold. Water-affected contents need specific drying conditions. Wrong environment = further damage.

Security protects your belongings

Everything is locked, monitored, and insured. No access without authorization. No mix-ups with other claims.

Organization makes packback easy

Everything is stored systematically using our inventory system. Finding and returning items is efficient and accurate.

Your contractor can work unobstructed

With contents safely stored off-site, your restoration work can proceed without constraints.

Climate-controlled storage vaults at the We Packout facility

Your own vault, not a shared shelf

Contents are stored in dedicated wooden vaults assigned to your claim alone. Nothing from another job shares your space, which is what makes it possible to guarantee an accurate, complete return at packback.

Questions About Storage

How do you prevent mold in storage?

Climate control — proper temperature and humidity management prevents mold growth. Fire-affected items are stored in lower humidity. Water-affected items are stored with active drying systems. It's not just storage; it's active recovery.

What if I need to retrieve items before packback?

No problem. We pull items from storage, verify them against inventory, and you can take them. We just need advance notice so we can locate and prepare items.

Is there a storage fee on top of everything else?

Storage is covered under your insurance claim as part of the contents loss. You don't pay separately.

What if storage takes longer than expected?

Storage duration is determined by your repair timeline. If repairs take longer, storage extends. Everything is covered by your claim as long as the repairs are actively progressing.

Storage is step 4 of our 5-step contents restoration process. All contents are stored in secure, climate-controlled facilities. Items are never mixed with other claims and are locked at all times.

While your home or business is being repaired, your belongings stay in our secure, climate-controlled storage. Every claim's contents are kept separate — we never mix items from different jobs in the same space — and access is logged and locked at all times. Climate control matters: fire-affected contents and water-affected contents need different humidity conditions to avoid further damage while in storage.
