When I had a flood in my house the company I called in pulled up with a trailer. In the trailer were two sentral AC units and two propane gas furnaces. They would pull air out of the house and into the trailer run it through the AC units to dehumidify the air and then through the furnaces sequentially to get the air temp up to 130 degrees. They ran this set up in my house for 24 hours and it was as dry as a bone. If you have a small area to deal with, try putting in a couple dehumidifiers and then a kero turbo heater or two to get the temp up over 100 degrees. You could probably reuse this equipment so it is not a single use purchase.

I used dehumidifier and woodstove.
