What Flood Cleanup Covers
Here's what a cleanup crew typically handles.
Mud & Silt Removal
Crews shovel and squeegee silt from floors, then rinse slabs and hard surfaces. Fast removal keeps silt from drying into a crust.
Debris & Furniture Removal
Waterlogged furniture, carpet, and stored items get removed and taken to disposal. Anything discarded is photographed first for your claim.
Salvage Sorting
Belongings are sorted into what can be cleaned and what can't. Hard plastics, metal, and glass usually clean up; porous items soaked in floodwater usually don't.
Disinfection & Pressure Washing
Hard surfaces, slabs, garage floors, and exterior areas get pressure-washed and treated with disinfectant. It cuts bacteria and the sour flood smell.
Garage & Shed Cleanup
Garages and sheds often take the worst of it, with tools, appliances, and stored items sitting in muddy water. They empty, clean, and organize what can be saved.

After the Mud Was Gone
These callers all faced a mess after the water left.
The garage was full of mud and soaked boxes after the storm. They cleared it, hauled two loads, and pressure-washed the slab the same day.

— Ellen R., Palos ParkBy day two the flood smell was awful. Once they pulled the wet carpet and disinfected the floors, it was gone.

What can be saved after a flood?
Non-porous items generally survive with cleaning. Porous items that absorbed floodwater, such as mattresses, carpet, and upholstery, are usually discarded.
Should I clean up flood debris myself?
Light work is possible with proper protection. For heavy lifting, big debris piles, and anything contaminated, a professional crew is safer and faster.
How soon should flood cleanup start?
Within 24 to 48 hours of the water receding, once the area is safe to enter. Mud and wet debris left longer increase odor, contamination, and mold growth.
Do I need to document items before throwing them out?
Always. Photos and a written inventory of discarded items support your insurance claim.
Is flood cleanup the same as flood restoration?
Not quite. Cleanup focuses on muck-out, debris removal, contents sorting, and sanitizing. Restoration goes further, including structural drying and rebuilding walls and floors.
