A growing demand for the need of contents restoration and storage has led to the expansion of Juvenaire’s contents services. Late 2019, a new storage facility was acquired by Juvenaire to organise contents that were coming into and leaving Juvenaire. With our warehouse running at capacity, there was growing concern over the organisation of the storage containers. The containers were large and consumed a lot of space. Therefore, a new heavy forklift was introduced to the fleet. The forklift helps us to maximise warehouse space by stacking storage containers.
Juvenaire’s contents service has grown over the years and a Contents Management System and Pack-out System has been implemented. With the Esporta Wash System and Fireline Ultrasonics Systems, Juvenaire offers a full contents restoration and storage service. Items that were once discarded can now be restored to their pre-loss condition thanks to state-of-the-art contents restoration equipment. As contents restoration has grown in demand, we have added even more services. This includes: laundry restoration, specialised and technical contents restoration as well as furniture restoration.
Contents Storage After An Event
At present, we provide contents storage solutions for customers that are having their property restored after an event. Storage for large pack-outs in a secure facility is difficult to find. Most storage companies do not have the space nor the ability to secure large containers under cover. Juvenaire therefore expanded operations to accomodate large pack-outs, especially in the event of a disaster such as flooding.
There are many reasons to have a dedicated storage facility. Contents storage has taught us that, containers left out in the elements will eventually have mould growth. This is because of the condensation caused by dew point and changes in temperature from hot to cold. Therefore, we always store our customer’s contents undercover.
Additionally, due to the nature of our business, time is of the essence. Therefore, if contents are affected, we organise pack-outs for the premises and process contents on-site at our warehouse facility. The pack-outs are stored in our high security storage facility and processed at a later date. This system also gives our technicians the time to sort through contents thoroughly, organising them according to ‘clean’, ‘restorable’, ‘repairable’ and ‘disposable’. We then restore/repair and clean the contents as well as the container. Once restored, we move the contents back into the clean container, until a customer’s home is repaired and remediated.
Offering Peace Of Mind
In the event of a large number of properties being affected during a disaster, Juvenaire has the facilities to cope. The restoration process takes much longer during disasters due to increased workloads. Juvenaire expects the expansion of content restoration services to benefit not just the business but also the customers.
We believe in keeping our customer’s contents safe and secure. This is another reason we offer our own storage solution. Apart from protecting it from the changing temperatures, we also protect it from theft. The storage facility has been secured fully with locked containers, locked facility and high security digital cameras. This is a back-to-base security system with a digital camera network. The system records movements within the storage facility around the clock. This deters theft, keeping track of all contents in the unlikely event of criminal activity.
