When Was The Last Time You Cleaned Your Comforter?

It looks like the chilly weather may be approaching fast. As we are quickly pulling out our warm blankets and comforters, we may find that some TLC of these items are in order. We cherish blankets and comforters dearly in the Midwest during those below zero days and especially when the temperature is even lower with wind chill. Making sure your warm items are clean (not musty from hiding away all summer) and ready for everyday use is imperative, not to mention there is something incredible about climbing under a warm, cozy blanket in front of a fire on a frigid Midwest winter night. You don’t want to have to settle for something less cozy just because you haven’t had a chance to get your blanket or comforter cleaned.

No matter what your blanket or comforters label says, CD One Price Cleaners makes sure it gets cleaned properly. We look at the care label to ensure your blanket maintains the cozy feeling you have become accustomed too.

At CD One, we have the tools to ensure your blankets and comforters are getting cleaned properly. Our machines are also larger than household machines, which keeps your large blankets and comforters from shifting and bunching up and ensures they get the proper cleaning that they deserve. For smaller blankets that you might want to try cleaning at home, make sure to pay careful attention to care labels to ensure your blanket comes out the way you put them in.

Time quickly goes by and we often forget to get our blankets and comforters cleaned. Cleaning your comforters, bedspreads and blankets on a regular basis is very important even if you don’t see a reason to at first glance. Comforters, bedspreads and blankets can easily collect allergens, bacteria, pet hair and other particles that may not be good for the health of you or your family, especially those items that you use on a more regular basis. By bringing them in at least once each season, you can help give yourself that piece of mind every time you snuggle up.

So don’t put it off any longer, as the temperatures are dropping quickly and friends and family will soon be making planned or even unplanned visits for the holidays. Make sure your blankets and comforters are getting cleaned sooner rather than later. You will save yourself the headache of extra running around as the holidays quickly approach. Plus, you’ll get the peace of mind that everyone is enjoying the clean and cozy night’s sleep that they deserve.

FAQ

How often should I clean my comforter at home or have it cleaned professionally?
For most households, aim to clean or professionally service your comforter at least once each season (every 3-4 months) — more often if pets, allergies or heavy use come into play.
Why is cleaning a comforter so important, even if it looks okay?
Comforters trap allergens, dust mites, pet hair, body oils and bacteria over time. Cleaning helps maintain both hygiene and the cozy feel of your bedding.
Can I clean my comforter at home, or should I use a professional service?
You can clean many comforters at home if your washer/dryer are large enough and the care label allows. But for bulky fill, delicate fabrics, or if your machines aren’t up to it, a professional service offers better coverage and prevents damage.
What should I check before washing my comforter?
Check the care label, repair any small tears, remove any covers/linings, and ensure your machine has enough capacity so the comforter can move freely without bunching.
What if I’ve never cleaned the comforter or it’s been more than a year?
If it’s been very long, it’s even more important to either deep clean at home (if safe) or bring it to a cleaner. The longer allergens and oils sit, the harder it is to remove them and the bigger risk of fabric or fill damage.
When should I delegate the cleaning to professionals?
If the comforter is down-filled, oversized, has “dry clean only” instructions, or you simply don’t have the proper equipment, professional cleaning is the best choice to ensure it stays in good shape.
