Cleanup Work Through Our Network
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
Crews help sort belongings into keep, clean, and discard piles. 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.

What Callers Say About the Cleanup
Each of these started with mud, debris, and a long to-do list.
Our garage had six inches of mud and everything in it was ruined. The crew had it shoveled, hauled, and pressure-washed by evening.
— Victor A., GreenlawnI couldn't bring myself to decide what to throw out. The crew helped sort, photographed everything for insurance, and were kind about it.
— Ellen R., GreenlawnBy day two the flood smell was awful. After the carpet came out and the floors were sanitized, the odor cleared.
— Jamal W., GreenlawnFlood Cleanup Questions, Answered
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?
As soon as authorities say it's safe. The first two days matter most for keeping mold and odor under control.
Do I need to document items before throwing them out?
Yes. Photograph each item, note brand and approximate age when possible, and keep a list. Insurers often want proof of what was lost before it's discarded.
Is flood cleanup the same as flood restoration?
Cleanup clears and sanitizes the property. Restoration adds drying and reconstruction afterward.
