WORKING FOR A CLEANER ENVIRONMENT
Bergmann's Cleaning wants you to know...
That recent changes in state and federal requirements for
the dry cleaning industry have been made to protect the environment.
Some of these new laws regulate the proper removal, transportation
and disposal of dry cleaning and laundry waste. While these
new laws help our environment stay cleaner, they also have
added to our cost of doing business. Soil and chemicals removed
from your garments through the dry cleaning and laundry process
must be disposed of carefully. Soil collected from dirty
garments must be stored properly and transported by a federally-licensed
refuse company. Bergmann's has always been a leader in the
recycling movement and we have chosen an approved company
that recycles the usable waste by-products and chemicals.
In addition to waste removal, we have changed our solvent to a "Green" solvent that is biodegradable. We have also purchased
state-of-the-art equipment to control that waste, held
employee seminars on waste removal and recycling and obtained
the proper permits to operate our dry cleaning equipment.
Our employees are aware of any health and right-to-know
laws. As the laws and requirements change, we'll keep you,
our customers, abreast of those new guidelines.
To continue our commitment for a cleaner environment,
we have included a small percentage fee to help cover these
costs. Bergmann's Cleaning will continue to be the leader
in doing whatever it takes to protect and preserve our
environment. Thank you for your help and your continued
patronage.
