BELFOR Franchise Group Putting Spotlight on Contents Restoration with Launch of Blue Kangaroo Packoutz

Industry News
July 8, 2021

While the primary focus within the restoration industry is on the structural property that is damaged, there’s a growing need for experts who can handle and restore the contents inside the homes and businesses that experience a water, fire or other type of loss. BELFOR Franchise Group has developed and launched the Blue Kangaroo Packoutz franchise to help people with the cleaning and restoration of their belongings that often includes family heirlooms, items of great personal and emotional value and critical business assets.

Leading with rigorous processes and personal attention to contents care when the unexpected happens, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has quickly earned customer trust in the markets where it has existing locations. As it looks to expand its geographic footprint to serve the need for content restoration on a national scale, the brand is steadily adding ambitious entrepreneurs and new locations across the country.

Behind the company’s success is the breadth of services it offers and its proprietary inventory management, cleaning and restoration technology. When a commercial or residential property is damaged, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz is quick to the scene, utilizing its real-time inventory management system that carefully documents and tracks the items through all stages of packout and restoration. Digital photography and barcoding ensure transparency and foster proactive communication with customers throughout every step of the restoration process. Whenever possible, salvageable items such as furniture, upholstery, artwork, electronics, documents and clothing are all treated and restored to pre-loss condition.

“Going the extra mile to ensure that peoples’ contents and valuables are fully restored is a point of pride for Blue Kangaroo Packoutz Team members,” said Tim Fagan, President of Blue Kangaroo Packoutz and a seasoned executive in the restoration industry. “We know that to be successful, we need to be more than just experts in our field – it takes a love for the role we serve in our communities and compassion for our customers and their belongings. When you combine the sensitivity and empathy our franchisees bring to every customer with our sophisticated systems and world-class training, you can’t help but be excited about where this brand is headed and how many more customers in need we can help across the country.”

The Blue Kangaroo Packoutz national headquarters is located in Mt. Clemens – in the northeast corner of Metro Detroit – which is home to its expansive 105,000 sq. ft. warehouse that has operated in the contents restoration space for more than 30 years. Featuring capacity for more than 700 vaults of content, a full-service art restoration center, cleaning room, furniture finishing and upholstery area and ozone room, it also serves as the company’s training facility for new and existing franchise owners.

Beyond the concept’s strong business model, the compassion with which Blue Kangaroo Packoutz approaches every job has distinguished it among competitors. Customers’ contents are treated with the utmost care and respect, and the Blue Kangaroo Packoutz empathy resonates well with customers enduring difficult situations.

As a member of the BELFOR Franchise Group, a family of nine industry-leading residential and commercial services franchise concepts owned by the worldwide restoration leader BELFOR Property Restoration, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has unparalleled access to restoration resources and benefits from decades of operational knowhow. Blue Kangaroo Packoutz has the capabilities to dispatch highly specialized team members and contents restoration experts to any location in the country.

“While we’ve seen companies jump in and out of the packout business over the years, the fact is that, with our worldwide footprint, no one does more packouts each year than BELFOR.” said Rusty Amarante, President of BELFOR Franchise Group. “We are thrilled to bring our years of experience and knowledge to our franchisees and have no doubt that Blue Kangaroo Packoutz will become the nation’s leading packout business, delivering the best customer experience in the industry.”

As the company expands into key markets, Blue Kangaroo Packoutz is actively seeking qualified owners looking to invest in growing a business in a strong segment. The contents restoration concept is awarding franchise opportunities to individuals who embody the company’s commitment to trustworthiness, transparency and compassion.
