Your Belongings. Safe.
Until You're Ready.
When your home or business cannot hold your contents during restoration, Cantt's secure climate-controlled storage protects everything we pack out — for as long as you need.
What We Do
Complete Pack-Out, Storage & Restoration Under One Roof
Content storage is not an afterthought — it is the backbone of a complete restoration project. When structural repairs require a property to be vacated, or when contents need to be removed for cleaning and restoration, Cantt Restoration provides secure, climate-controlled long-term storage at our facility. Every item is inventoried, photographed, and tracked so nothing is lost, misidentified, or damaged in transit. Content restoration is frequently where the most value is recovered — for the homeowner and for the claim.
Professional Pack-Out
Our technicians pack your contents using industry-standard materials and methods — proper padding, boxing, and labeling protect items during transport and storage.
Detailed Inventory Documentation
Every item packed out is inventoried with description, condition notes, and photographs — this inventory becomes part of your claim documentation and your personal record.
Climate-Controlled Secure Storage
Contents are stored in our climate-controlled facility, protecting them from temperature extremes, humidity, and secondary damage during what can be an extended restoration period.
Content Cleaning & Restoration
While in storage, contents identified for restoration — furniture, textiles, electronics, documents, art — are processed by our technicians using appropriate cleaning and restoration methods. This is almost always more cost-effective than replacement.
Coordinated Return Delivery
When your property is ready, we coordinate the return and placement of restored contents — complete white-glove pack-back service so you are not moving boxes on top of everything else.
Insurance Inventory Support
Our inventory documentation aligns with the format insurance adjusters and contents specialists use to evaluate personal property claims, maximizing your recovery and reducing back-and-forth with your carrier.
Immediate Steps
What You Should Do Right Now
- 1 Do not throw away damaged contents before they are professionally evaluated. Items that appear unsalvageable often are not — content restoration almost always recovers more value than replacement at depreciated cost. If you do not feel safe in the space, leave immediately and call us.
- 2 Video your contents before we arrive — video first, then photograph. Walk your space room by room, capturing every item of value you can identify. This is your record alongside ours, and video evidence is far more useful to your claim than photos alone.
- 3 Make a list of high-priority and high-value items. Note heirlooms, electronics, documents, art, and jewelry so our pack-out team can prioritize handling and appropriate storage conditions for those items specifically.
- 4 Call Cantt Restoration at (903) 251-9525. We do not give estimates — we assess on-site and discuss your specific timeline and storage needs. Call us before or during any active restoration project so we can plan the pack-out correctly.
Insurance & Documentation
How We Document It
Photographic Inventory at Pack-Out
Every item is photographed at the point of packing, with condition noted — this creates a before-storage baseline that protects both you and us, and supports the personal property portion of your insurance claim.
Chain of Custody Tracking
Items are tracked from your property to our facility and back — nothing moves without being logged. You have a complete record of where your belongings are at every stage of the project.
Restoration Status Reports
For contents undergoing cleaning or restoration, we provide progress updates and document completed treatments so your adjuster can confirm what was restored versus what required replacement — a critical distinction for claim accuracy.
Why Cantt
Built Different. Independent.
Independent, Not Franchised
Your contents stay in our facility under our direct care — they are not subcontracted to a third-party warehouse you have never seen. We are a local team that is accountable to you directly, not a corporate inventory system.
Insurance Experience From Both Sides
Our inventory documentation is built to support contents claims. Our staff includes former insurance adjusters who know how personal property is evaluated — and we document accordingly so your recovery is as complete as possible.
Restoration First
We always attempt restoration before recommending replacement. Content restoration is the biggest value driver in most residential and commercial claims — it recovers more for you and typically produces a more favorable outcome overall. We follow ANSI/IICRC S500, S520, and S700 standards on every job.
What Our Clients Say
Real Results
"Cantt packed out everything in our home after a major water loss. They kept every item inventoried and safe for four months while our house was being repaired. When they brought it all back, everything was in perfect condition — better than when they took it."— Gail N., Whitehouse, TX
"They restored furniture and clothing that my insurance company initially said should just be replaced. Cantt's team knew how to clean and restore items the adjuster did not think were saveable. We recovered a lot."— Tom B., Longview, TX
Questions
Frequently Asked
How long can Cantt store my belongings?
We accommodate both short-term and long-term storage needs. Restoration timelines are unpredictable — repairs frequently take longer than initially estimated, permits get delayed, and supply chains cause holdups. We do not rush you out of storage on an arbitrary timeline. We work with your restoration schedule and keep your contents safe and climate-controlled until your property is genuinely ready to receive them.
Do you give estimates for pack-out and storage?
We do not give estimates over the phone — we cannot accurately scope a pack-out without seeing the property and the volume of contents involved. Call us at (903) 251-9525 and we will schedule an on-site assessment. We work directly with your insurance carrier so the cost of pack-out, storage, and content restoration is properly documented and presented as part of your claim.
What types of contents can be restored?
A wide range — furniture (wood, upholstered, antique), textiles and clothing, electronics, documents and photographs, art and collectibles, kitchenware, and more. The answer depends on the type of damage and the material involved. We assess every item individually and give you an honest evaluation of what can be restored to a usable condition. Content restoration is one of the most significant value recoveries available in any restoration claim, and we pursue it aggressively on your behalf.
