Ooooh That Smell- A block of Lynard Skynard happened to be on the radio during the ride home


Recommended Posts

That smell of a burn job is terrible.... but getting a few cars out of the job sure made deal I. With the smell a little easier.

 

As with my last job, I’m curious to hear how you guys are billing something like this. One bill or three separate? My plan is to put them all on one in hope that the at fault insurance will deal with all three at the same time under liability/property damage.

 

We had a scene supervisor, our cleanup trailer, and three flatbeds. Three hours from the time of call until we were back home and cleaned up. Used a power broom, Spill tackle, 2 disposal drums full of waste. My total is around 3 G’s for the job. The best part is, we know at least two of the vehicles will be covered under liability without any problem.

 

I’ll go into more detail in my description when I have more time.

Today just after 4 pm we were called to the parking lot of the Lionville Giant for three vehicles after a fire. We were advised that one vehicle had caught fire while parked, also catching two others on fire. No one was injured.

 

We were able to get the parking lot cleaned up using our power broom. Each vehicle was loaded into a flatbed truck. All of the loose debris was swept and placed into disposal drums. Our crew worked together to scrape all of the melted plastic and aluminum from the area. Spill Tackle was used to absorb any hazardous fluids from the area. All three vehicles were transported to our storage lot. All remaining debris was washed from our flatbeds.

I had a similar deal a couple years back. One vehicle in a parking lot caught fire and caused heavy damage to another next to it. Here in Ny, It ended up being covered under The No Fault insurance coverage of the vehicle that started the fire. It was State farm if memory serves right. They paid the whole deal on my end and took possession of both burnouts. It worked out ok Mainly due to the car that caused the damage in my case had full coverage insurance. If it had been the other way around, the other car only had Liability and would have paid on the car it damaged but, I would have been S.O.L. on that car.

In these types of situations, I always try to write up a draft of My numbers and keep it handy so I can wait to see how the Insurance is gonna try and play their hand. Basically, I stick to my Numbers but I am willing to slice it up any way they want to choose. But in the end, I get the Numbers I am after.
