“It’s not just about clean clothes. It’s about honoring the people who wore them.”
We got a 6AM call from one of our trusted fiduciary clients—panicked.
One of their clients was being relocated to a new facility, and when they went to grab her stored clothes…
🤮MOLD.
Like, the worst case they’d ever seen.
Now here’s the thing—
This client wasn’t expected to return home. These clothes weren’t just clothes. They were keepsakes. Memories. Pieces of a life once lived.
So what did our partner do?
They called Suds & Dash.
We knew it was going to be a challenge.
Tide? That wasn’t going to cut it.
Mold needs something stronger.
We pulled out our proprietary detergent blend—a Suds and Dash powerhouse mix of household staples like white vinegar and diluted bleach, combined with trusted name brands—to safely and effectively fight the mold.
The items were soaked for 8 hours, then processed through our stock commercial machine 2x's on the highest heat—the same machine we reserve specifically for extreme articles of clothing.
(And yes, we deep-clean that machine twice a month to ensure it's ready for the toughest jobs.)
Slowly but surely, those garments came back to life.
Not only did we restore the clothes, but we also sealed the folded laundry for easier, safer long-term storage—and to help prevent any future mold growth.
Our partner was relieved.
Their client’s dignity and memories were preserved.
And we were reminded—
At Suds & Dash, laundry is never just laundry.
