How to Get Stains Out of Your Clothes

Stains are a headache. Here's how to give yourself the best shot at removing them:

1. Act fast
   The sooner you treat a stain, the better. Rinse with cold water right away so it doesn't set.
2. Use the right products
   Grease needs a grease-fighting detergent; wine may need a specialized remover. Read the label.
3. Check the care label
   Some fabrics need special treatment, and the wrong product can do more damage than the stain.
4. Treat before washing
   Once treated, wash as usual — and avoid hot water, which sets stains.
5. Repeat as needed
   If it doesn't come out the first time, treat it again before drying.

Note: our wash & fold service is basic washing and drying, not stain removal, though we can add a color-safe bleach alternative on request.
