We are following best practices recommended by the Centers for Disease Control, state, and local governments including frequent handwashing, requiring employees to stay home if they are not feeling well, sanitizing hard surfaces in our facilities on a more rigorous schedule than usual, and trying to practice social distancing.

Please check our websites and Facebook pages for updates.

Coronavirus: Tips for Safe Laundry Care

Recommendations from the Coin Laundry Association

Keep Doing Laundry!

Regular cleaning will prevent the spread of disease as the virus can live on clothing for up to 3 days.

The Hotter the Wash, the Better .

Experts recommend washing items in a temperature of at least 140F. Follow clothing manufacturers' instructions and use the warmest appropriate setting.

Use the Dryer.

Viruses do not like heat and the dryer will further prevent the spread of disease.

Use the Right Amount of Soap.

Too much soap creates excess suds that causes dirt and the virus to remain trapped in the fabric. The right amount of soap will properly clean your clothes and be rinsed from the fabrics.

Avoid Shaking Dirty Laundry.

This will minimize the possibility of dispersing the virus through the air.

Clean and Disinfect Clothes Hampers and Baskets.

Consider placing a bag liner in your hamper that is either disposable or can be laundered.
