The Reality of Storm Season Staffing

When a hurricane makes landfall, every restoration company in the region needs crews immediately. Staffing agencies get flooded with requests, and availability disappears within hours.

Companies Scrambling During the Crisis

  • Spend days calling multiple agencies hoping for availability
  • Have no insight into crew capacity or deployment timelines
  • Complete paperwork and compliance verification under pressure
  • Often settle for whoever’s available—not who’s best for the job
  • Pay premium rates with zero negotiation leverage

Pre-Season Partners with Bergman Brothers

  • Receive weekly updates on available crews by region and skill set
  • Get priority notification when we’re deploying to their area
  • Have pre-negotiated rates and expedited service options already in place
  • Work with dedicated recruiters who understand their needs
  • Receive full compliance documentation before crews arrive on-site

The difference? Information, priority access, and speed when contracts are on the line.

Set Up Your Pre-Season Partnership

What Benefits Do Pre-Season Partners Receive?

No contracts. No retainers. No BS. Just priority access when you need it most.

Weekly Hurricane Workforce Reports

Every Friday starting in June, receive our availability update: crew counts, skill specializations, geographic coverage, and deployment status. Make informed decisions before you need to mobilize.

What you’ll see:

  • Available crews by region (Gulf Coast, Florida, Atlantic Coast, Northeast)
  • Skill set breakdown (debris removal, roof tarping, water extraction, mold remediation, etc.)
  • Active weather system monitoring
  • Real-time deployment status

Know what’s available before you need it.

Priority Dispatch When Minutes Matter

Standard deployment timeline: 48-72 hours
Expedited deployment for Pre-Season Partners: Hours, not days

When contracts are on the line, speed wins. Premium rates apply for expedited service, but you’ll have crews mobilized while competitors are still making phone calls.

Priority means:

  • First notification when crews deploy to your region
  • Direct line to your dedicated account manager (not a general dispatch queue)
  • Expedited paperwork and compliance processing
  • Fast-track crew assignment and mobilization

Locked-In Rate Structures

Pre-negotiate your standard and expedited rates before hurricane season begins. No surprises, no surge pricing negotiations during emergencies.

Lock in pricing for:

  • Standard crew deployment (48-72 hour timeline)
  • Expedited deployment service (premium rates for rapid response)
  • Specialized roles requiring certifications
  • Multi-week project rates

Your pricing is set—we honor it all season long.

Your Dedicated Support Team

Every Pre-Season Partner is assigned:

  • Two dedicated recruiters who source and vet crews for your projects
  • One account manager who coordinates everything and serves as your single point of contact

They know your crew requirements, safety standards, and how you operate. One call, immediate action—no navigating phone trees or explaining your needs repeatedly.

Your team handles:

  • Crew sourcing and vetting
  • Compliance documentation coordination
  • Deployment logistics and timing
  • On-site issue resolution
  • Invoicing and administrative support

Job-Specific Compliance Documentation

Every job site has different requirements. Military bases need background checks. Certain projects require OSHA training cards or confined space certifications. Some sites have no certification requirements at all.

Here’s how we handle it:

When you request crews, tell us your project’s compliance requirements. We’ll:

  • Match technicians who meet those specific qualifications
  • Provide all required documentation before crews arrive
  • Send complete crew rosters with technician names and credentials
  • Ensure you know exactly who’s coming and what they’re certified for

No surprises. No compliance issues. No technicians showing up without the credentials your job requires.

Real-Time Storm Alerts

When major weather systems develop, receive immediate updates on:

  • Our crew deployment status by region
  • Available capacity in affected areas
  • Estimated response timelines
  • Crew mobilization in progress

Stay ahead of the chaos with real-time intelligence other restoration companies don’t have.

What Pre-Season Partners Say

When Hurricane Francine hit, we had crews on-site in 18 hours. Our competitors were still calling agencies three days later. That speed advantage won us a $400K contract with a major commercial property owner. The Pre-Season Partnership paid for itself in one storm.

— Sarah Martinez, Operations Director, Gulf Coast Restoration

What does it cost to lose a six-figure contract because you couldn’t mobilize fast enough?
