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.
Specialists photograph and inventory every item, pack it, and take it to a climate-controlled warehouse. There, hard goods go through ultrasonic tanks, fabrics through restoration wash systems, and electronics through dedicated cleaning. Items return cleaned, deodorized and checked off against the 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.

Contents Cleaning Questions
What is a contents pack-out?

Can stuffed animals and clothing be saved?
Often, yes. Most fabrics and soft toys respond well to restoration washing and deodorizing.
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.

Freeze-drying can save many wet documents and photos. Act quickly to prevent mold.
How long are my belongings stored?
Belongings typically stay in storage until the house is ready. Storage time affects cost.
