Our Removal & Storage Process
Local Knowledge and Technique
Holiday lighting in Western New York presents unique challenges—snow, ice, and the need for safe, damage-free removal. Our process is designed for the region’s winter conditions, property types, and the specific layouts we install.
Step-by-Step: What You Can Expect
Proactive Scheduling
We reach out before removal day—usually just after New Year’s—unless another date was picked during your install.
Weather First
We schedule around snow and ice for everyone’s safety—if conditions are hazardous, we’ll clearly communicate and reschedule.
Efficient Tear Down
- Most lights come down using commercial-grade extension poles—no risky roof time needed.
- Every bulb, strand, garland, and clip is carefully removed in reverse order of installation.
- Occasionally, a roof climb or boom lift is necessary for tricky spots—our team only uses these methods when absolutely necessary and always follows the highest safety standards.
No Property Damage
Our industry-specific clips allow for damage-free removal from every surface—shingles, gutters, fascia.
Gentle Handling
- Strands are balled up to prevent damage and tangling.
- Garlands and minis are collected with the same care.
Carful Labeling & Documentation
Once everything is off, we:
- Label every strand, connection, and individual zone: Exact footage, power jumpers, and the types of clips used on each section are all recorded.
- Bundled & Separated:
- Strands grouped, zip-tied, and tagged for exact reinstall location.
- Each customer’s materials are kept completely separate.
Professional, Moisture-Proof Storage
- All your lighting is stored in heavy-duty, moisture-resistant bins—labeled with your info and layout diagram.
- Materials are housed in our secure, climate-aware storage. No mixing with other clients’ items—everything’s individually tracked, and if an item is ever damaged or goes missing, we replace it promptly under our leasing policy.
- Annual Inventory Check: Before the next install, we test every strand and bulb, checking for wear, so your display is flawless.
How Hearth and Halo Stands Out
Our Promise to You!
- Zero Property Damage Guarantee: Only use purpose-designed clips for each surface; shingles/gutters fully protected.
- Transparent, Local Communication: You get calls, texts, or emails for every stage—no surprises, ever.
- Precision Labeling: Removes all guesswork for future years—quicker, easier, and always looks perfect.
- 100% Full-Service Leasing: We replace and fix any lighting or material as part of the contract—no extra fees.

F&Q for Removal and Sotrage of Holiday Lights | Hearth & Halo
What happens if I want to change the look of my display next season?
Simply let us know during your annual consult or before reinstallation. As part of our lease service, we’re happy to adjust the design, add new features, or swap colors to fit your new preferences.
How do you ensure bulbs are still working after almost a year in storage?
Each year before we reinstall, our team inspects and tests every bulb, strand, and connection in our facility. Any lights that don’t pass are replaced immediately—so your display always looks fresh and bright.
What if my home’s exterior changes—like new siding, a roof replacement, or remodel?
Let us know as soon as your exterior changes. We’ll review, adjust your lighting plan, and ensure all clips and equipment match the new materials, so everything fits safely and perfectly with your home updates.
Are your storage bins protected from moisture, rodents, or temperature extremes?
Yes! We use commercial-grade, sealed bins and store them in a climate-aware, pest-controlled facility to safeguard your holiday décor and guarantee it's flawless for the following season.
