Free Home Cleanup Hotline Available

This service is for households impacted by recent storms and flooding.

From now until January 27, 2023, several relief agencies are staffing a free hotline for the public to request help cleaning up from the recent flooding. This hotline will connect survivors with reputable and vetted voluntary relief agencies that will assist in debris cleanup and mucking out as they are able. All services are free, but service is not guaranteed due to the expected overwhelming need.

The partnership with Crisis Clean-Up helps connect survivors with local relief agencies working across the state. Crisis Clean-Up will help facilitate cleanup by various aid agencies standing by to assist those affected by the flooding.

All services are performed by vetted and reputable relief agencies and members of National VOAD.

• Survivors needing assistance with home cleanup, please call 844-965-1386. For information about social services such as food, clothing, shelter, insurance, or questions about FEMA, call 415-473-INFO.
