Imagine a storm so fierce it leaves entire communities reeling. In September 2024, Hurricane Helene did just that. It tore through the southeastern United States, leaving a path of destruction in North and South Carolina. Towns like Asheville, Marion, and Black Mountain faced torrential rains, powerful winds, and devastating floods. The aftermath brought unimaginable challenges. But amidst the chaos, Moffitt Site Services stepped up to provide essential support for hurricane recovery.
A Storm’s Impact
Hurricane Helene’s fury left communities without power, clean water, or basic sanitation. Beloved landmarks, like Asheville’s Grand Bohemian Hotel, suffered significant damage. This iconic hotel, known for its unique architecture and cultural ties, became a symbol of hope for the community. Its hurricane recovery was crucial for Asheville.

Moffitt Site Services knew they had to act fast. They quickly deployed a team of over 50 disaster response experts.

And because of their efforts, emergency shelters, healthcare facilities, and local businesses could resume operations.
Rusty Moffitt, Moffitt Team Member, shared a touching story.
