What We Do
Blue Kangaroo PACKOUTZ is a comprehensive contents cleaning and restoration company. We're focused on utilizing industry best practices for the handling of personal and business assets. Our work is so important because we're restoring what people value most. Clients seek out Blue Kangaroo PACKOUTZ after fire, water, mold, or other damage-it's a very sensitive situation they're facing, so we work hard to make the restoration process seamless and stress-free. Who We Hire
We look for individuals with skills such as truck driving, warehousing, sewing, woodworking, crafting, cleaning, and other restoration-related activities. We also know that not everyone comes to us with these skills. That's why we put each specialist-those with or without training-through an in-depth and comprehensive training program. Each Blue Kangaroo PACKOUTZ member learns the entire contents restoration process while honing in on their specific cleaning or restoration skills. It's all a part of our ongoing support and training experience.
