Displacement Bags for fire customers

11/22/2023 (Permalink)

When a fire breaks out-

Priority 1) Get everyone out

Next 2) Call the fire department

But then what should I do next? 

Sometimes it’s a small fire-others are a total loss. We help keep you informed on how to prevent situations that could cause a fire and we let you know what we can do to get your life back to how it was. But what’s going on in the middle?

Many situations call for the individuals to be displaced for a short to long period. And in many of those situations, they are unable to have those bare essentials we take for granted-just to get through a couple of days.

SERVPRO of Bloomington/Pontiac started to partner up with local businesses to provide, what we call displacement bags. These bags go with our folks on the scene as well as several first responder units. They are of no obligation to use our services but they provide just a little to get through a day or so to ease some stress. 

Items include Personal Hygiene, notepad, Laundry supplies, donated discounted hotel rooms, the bag itself to carry items, and much more.

These bags are meant to get a household through a day or so-organizations like Red Cross and the Salvation Army provide further assistance as needed. These types of organizations do such a great service in getting those folks who need assistance during that time-we salute them!
