Thank you, Mayor Moses!

It seems like only yesterday that New York State first went into lockdown to minimize the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Somehow, over a year has passed since those orders first went into place and our entire world changed.

Overnight, people shifted from their daily routines into a "new normal." For many of us, that meant working from home five days a week.

Our first responders, however, never had that option. While most of us were locked down at home, they answered the call of duty and continued to go out into the community to keep us safe.

At SERVPRO of West Seneca/Lancaster, we're proud to support our first responders any way that we can. That's why, when lockdowns first hit, we volunteered our time to disinfect and protect every single police, fire and EMS agency that we could get into contact with.

We did a lot of work with the Village of Hamburg in those early days of lockdown. Months later, while we were interviewing the village's mayor for a Facebook Live event, he was kind enough to recollect the work that we did:

“I want to thank SERVPRO for stepping up to the plate in the beginning stages. It was two or three days after we got underway [with implementing COVID-19 regulations] and you called us and said ‘can we do anything for you in regards to disinfecting?’

We said ‘yes, we would appreciate that.’ You stepped up to our plate, took care of the Village of Hamburg Fire Department. We have 10 or 11 pieces of equipment, you came in, you sanitized all of that, and all the trucks. Our police department, you did all the cars. To this day, now, we disinfect after every call.”

Thank you for the kind words, Mayor Moses! We're proud to have done our part.
