The questions your team needs answered
Every storm debris cleanup intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of property needs debris cleanup? | Property type separates a single-driveway residential haul from a commercial or multi-unit job that may need more crew and equipment. |
| What kinds of debris are present on the property? | The debris mix determines what equipment gets sent — chainsaws for fallen trees, wet-vac gear for mud and floodwater, versus a simple branch haul. |
| Is any debris blocking access to entrances, driveways, or exits? | Debris blocking entrances or driveways signals a safety and access problem that typically needs same-day dispatch. |
| How soon do you need the debris removed? | The removal timeline sets scheduling priority, separating emergency requests from flexible ones that can wait for an open slot. |
| Are you the property owner or an authorized representative able to approve this work? | Confirming approval authority upfront prevents a crew from showing up to a site where the requester can't actually sign off on the work. |
| Is there an active insurance claim related to this storm damage? | Insurance claim status indicates whether the job is likely to move on a carrier's timeline or can be quoted and scheduled directly with the owner. |

Built for storm debris cleanup workflows
| Cliont capability | Storm Debris Cleanup application |
|---|---|
| Conditional scoring logic | Fallen trees, roofing debris, and blocked-access answers carry the heaviest weights, so a driveway-blocking tree limb outranks a general branch cleanup automatically. |
| Photo upload widget | Owners attach photos of the debris pile and any blocked access points before the crew is dispatched, so your team can size equipment needs from the office. |
| Authorization flag | If the requester isn't the owner or an authorized representative, the lead is flagged for a confirmation call instead of being scheduled straight to a crew. |
| CRM routing | Leads with active insurance claims and blocked-access debris route to your CRM with those details already tagged, so estimators know the payment path before calling back. |
Example storm debris cleanup lead scenarios
Illustrative situations explain the intake questions and possible follow-up.
Blocked driveway after tree fall
A fallen tree is blocking the only driveway and the owner needs it cleared immediately, so the intake flags high urgency and confirms the requester can approve the work on the spot.
Multi-unit flood debris with claim
A rental property manager reports mud and silt debris across common areas with an active insurance claim already filed, giving the crew both a value and urgency signal before scheduling.
General yard cleanup, no rush
Homeowner has scattered branches and general yard debris but flags flexible timing and no insurance claim involved, so the intake routes it as a lower-priority job to fill in the schedule.
Roof debris, claim still pending
Roofing and siding debris is on the ground within days of the storm, but the owner is still deciding whether to file a claim, so the crew can see the job needs a follow-up before quoting.

Storm Debris Cleanup lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake decide which debris cleanup leads are urgent?
It combines the removal timeline answer with whether debris is blocking entrances, driveways, or exits — a same-day request with blocked access scores highest so it surfaces before jobs with flexible timing.
Does the form check if there's an insurance claim before we quote?
Yes, the intake asks whether a claim is active, being planned, not involved, or unclear, so your team knows upfront whether the job is likely paid directly or through a carrier.
Can this intake handle commercial or multi-unit debris jobs, not just single homes?
Yes, the property type question separates residential, commercial, and multi-unit/rental submissions so you can route larger jobs differently from a single-family cleanup.
What if the person filling out the form isn't the property owner?
The intake asks directly whether the requester is the owner or an authorized representative able to approve the work, so leads without approval authority can be flagged before a crew is scheduled.
What happens if someone selects 'not sure' for debris type?
That answer still carries weight in scoring rather than being discarded, so an unclear-debris lead can still reach your CRM for a phone follow-up instead of being dropped.
How is this different from the Tree Impact Damage intake?
Storm Debris Cleanup covers general hauling of fallen limbs, roofing, siding, and mud or floodwater across a property, while Tree Impact Damage is scoped to structural damage caused by a tree strike.
