Art Van Furniture Announces Emergency Flood Damage Relief Program for Michigan

WARREN, Mich., Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Yesterday's torrential rains and widespread flooding have impacted homeowners across Southeastern Michigan, destroying and damaging furnishings, flooring and other contents in their homes. Beginning today, Art Van Furniture is offering to help families with the "Art Van Furniture, Mattress and Flooring Flood Damage Relief Program" for Michigan.

Art Van Furniture will extend its best pricing, the Employee Family Purchase program pricing, to flood victims. Guests simply bring photos of damaged furniture, mattresses and flooring or an insurance check into any Art Van Furniture store in Michigan. It's good for a one time purchase and will need to be approved by a store manager or sales manager.

In addition, the Art Van Clean Team is offering aid as well. Those homeowners who need help can call the Art Van Clean Team which will waive the deductible for insurance claims and offer a 30% discount for other cleaning needs.

"It is important for everyone in the community to come together during these types of emergencies that cause such huge unexpected hardships for so many of families," said Art Van Elslander, founder and chairman of Art Van Furniture. "Art Van Furniture plans to do whatever we can to help alleviate the financial burden on families, and give back to our neighbors who have supported us for 55 years."

While the metro Detroit area was hardest hit by the storms, the program is valid statewide, offering assistance to all Michigan homeowners who were impacted by this season's severe weather conditions. The "Art Van Furniture, Mattress and Flooring Flood Damage Relief Program" for Michigan expires in six months.
