The Kitchen Fire Was Small, but Everything You Own Smells Like Smoke
A kitchen fire that never left the stove can still fill every closet with smoke. Bedding, clothing, toys, books and electronics can pick up residue and odor far from the kitchen. Families often assume it is all ruined. Much of it is not.
A contents specialist inventories each item with photos, packs it and moves it to a climate-controlled facility. There, hard goods go through ultrasonic tanks, fabrics through restoration wash systems, and electronics through dedicated cleaning. Everything comes back clean, deodorized and listed against the original inventory.
Timing matters with belongings. Soot on electronics keeps corroding, wet paper can grow mold in two days, and odor keeps sinking into fabric. A specialist will usually pull the most vulnerable items first: electronics, documents, photos and anything damp. Heirlooms like quilts, framed art and keepsakes can be flagged for extra care, and some may go to conservators who handle textiles or fine art.

Fire Damaged Contents Cleaning FAQ
What is a contents pack-out?
It means your belongings are logged, packed and moved off site for cleaning and storage.
Can stuffed animals and clothing be saved?
Often, yes. Restoration washing and deodorizing removes soot and odor from most textiles.
How are electronics cleaned after a fire?
Soot is removed from inside and outside the device before it is turned on. Do not plug them in first.
Can wet photos and documents be saved?
Freeze-drying can save many wet documents and photos. Act quickly to prevent mold.
How long are my belongings stored?
Items are usually stored until repairs are finished, then returned. Storage time affects cost.
