> Linens, comforters, bedding, drapes & couch cushions

Large household items don't belong in a home washer — they hold too much water, dry unevenly, and often come out damaged. We handle comforters, duvets, bedding, drapes, tablecloths, cushion covers, and upholstered slipcovers with commercial-scale equipment designed for the job.

## Can you clean comforters, duvets, and bedding?

Yes — down, down-alternative, weighted blankets, quilts, duvet covers, mattress covers, pillow shams, and decorative pillows. Large comforters get commercial-washer treatment, delicate heirloom quilts get hand-care, and down items get fully dried through to prevent mildew.

## Do you clean drapes and curtains?

We take drapes down, clean them (dry clean or launder depending on fabric), press them, and either deliver or hang them back on-site. Removing dust, pet dander, and smoke residue from drapery regularly makes a measurable difference in household air quality.

## Tablecloths and linens

White tablecloths get stain attention you can't get at home — wine, candle wax, food, and coffee. Holiday and special-occasion linens are stored properly so they're ready for next year. We also handle napkins, runners, placemats, and banquet linens.

## Couch cushion covers and upholstery

Removable couch cushion covers, throw pillow covers, and slipcovers clean up beautifully. We inspect zippers and seams before cleaning and can make minor repairs. Non-removable upholstery requires in-home cleaning, which we refer out.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you clean a king-size down comforter?

Yes. We have commercial-scale machines built for exactly this — home washers are too small and tend to damage the fill.

### Do you take drapes down and rehang them?

Yes. Take-down, cleaning, and rehanging is available — ask when you schedule pickup.

### Can you get wine stains out of a tablecloth?

Usually. The sooner we see it the better. Don't wash it at home first — heat sets wine stains permanently.

### Do you clean weighted blankets?

Yes. Weighted blankets are handled with care — the fill distribution needs to stay even, and we dry them all the way through.
