Blue Kangaroo Packoutz

Blue Kangaroo Packoutz, a member of the BELFOR Franchise Group, is one of the hottest NEW concepts in franchising, and we are a highly differentiated concept in the restoration industry. What we do is not "traditional" property restoration. We do Contents Restoration. Traditional property restoration companies fix the structure (floors, walls, ceilings, etc), and traditional restoration is 24/7, you deal with sewage and mold and "yucky" stuff, and there are a LOT of competitors. Contents restoration is scheduled (our hours are 8-5, M-F), our people don't wade through sewage and "yucky" stuff, and we actually are referred work from all those restoration contractors out there. Contents restoration is best described this way...if you tipped a house or a building upside down, everything that would fall out is contents. Contents are the things that have actual value and/or sentimental value. Contents are often the things that make a house a home...things like Grandma's wedding album, little Tommy's teddy bear, or your collection of 8 tracks (as well as furniture, electronics, artwork, documents, clothing and more). Contents restoration is covered by insurance. Everyone has it. For an insurance company, it's much less expensive to clean and restore an item than it is to replace it. For a home owner or property owner, they'd usually much rather have THEIR item that has sentimental value. That's where Blue Kangaroo Packoutz comes in. We work with insurance agents and adjusters, as well as traditional restoration contractors (because the vast majority of them don't do contents restoration, they sub it out) to help homeowners and property owners keep the things they value most. We assess the job, we inventory everything, we carefully pack it out, we clean everything, we store everything safely until the home owner is ready to receive it back, and then we move it all back. Each step of the way, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz gets paid by the insurance company. What's the biggest differentiator? Blue Kangaroo Packoutz is owned by the world's largest property restoration company, BELFOR. BELFOR has nearly 100 offices located throughout the US, and they don't do contents restoration. So not only does Blue Kangaroo Packoutz get work from the majority of restoration contractors out there (ServPro, Service Master, Paul Davis Restoration, Rainbow, PuroClean, the list goes on and on), but we also get work from biggest company on the planet in our industry. We also have a sister concept, 1800 Water Damage, which does traditional restoration, and they feed us work as well. With CENTURIES of experience in franchising and in restoration, the BELFOR Franchise Group is the perfect team to bring Blue Kangaroo Packoutz to market. Who better to be trained and supported by than the largest company in the world in our industry. The average ticket is MASSIVE. The margins are as good, or BETTER, than traditional restoration (but without the headaches of 24/7, dirty yucky work and massive amounts of competition). The hours of operation are normal, and there's a FEEL GOOD aspect to this business that you can't get in most other franchises.
