"We're getting sandbags and we're going to fill them and put them at every entrance. That's the only thing I can think of," Michael Hillock of Maran's Auto Body shop said.
Hillock said the shop lost thousands of dollars worth of items after Saturday's downpour.
"The furnace we've replaced the furnace here like three times in five years. That's the first thing that goes. We have a compressor downstairs, like a backup one that was the water was up to the ceiling in the basement downstairs. That was floating. It's just a huge mess," Hillock.
Piles of garbage are still surrounding roads.
