Moving Truck Fumigation
Once virtually eradicated in the United States, bed bugs are now becoming America’s pest nightmare. Because bed bugs are the ultimate hitchhikers, no place is immune to them — homes, apartments, offices and even five-star hotels. Bed Bugs hide in furniture, bedding, books, electronics, etc. and can be spread from one location to another during a move.

- Moving Company loads client’s personal items and belongings to be fumigated into company truck and brings them to secure company yard and/or BBFS facility prior to 5pm on the scheduled day of service

- Moving Company returns to secure facility after 9am next day to retrieve truck and 100% bed bug FREE belongings, return to residence/offices and replace
As the fumigation is being completed, BBFS recommends that all fumigation client’s hire an independent certified K-9 Inspection company to insure that your “clean” location is also bed bug free prior to your arrival. BBFS maintains a partner network and would be happy to provide you with several reputable K9 Inspection companies to consider for your needs.
BBFS recommends that clients work directly with their Realtor and licensed Pest Control Operator (PCO) to insure an Integrated Pest Management program is adopted at move-in. This insures a client’s overall pest management success and effectiveness, and ultimately a client’s highest satisfaction.
This is a TEAM effort!
