Blankets are the unsung heroes of comfort. Whether it's your favourite fleece throw, a luxurious wool blanket, or a bulky duvet that keeps you warm during winter, these essentials often get overlooked in the regular laundry routine. But did you know that not cleaning your blankets regularly can lead to dust mites, bacteria build-up, skin issues, and even a reduction in the lifespan of your bedding?

Blankets are the unsung heroes of comfort. Whether it's your favourite fleece throw, a luxurious wool blanket, or a bulky duvet that keeps you warm during winter, these essentials often get overlooked in the regular laundry routine. But did you know that not cleaning your blankets regularly can lead to dust mites, bacteria build-up, skin issues, and even a reduction in the lifespan of your bedding?

That’s where a professional blanket washing and cleaning service comes into play. With the right care and cleaning techniques, your blankets can be kept fresh, hygienic, and long-lasting — saving you money and improving your quality of sleep.

Why Blanket Cleaning Matters

Unlike clothes and bedsheets that are washed weekly, blankets often don’t get the attention they deserve. Yet, they collect:

  • Body oils and sweat
  • Dead skin cells
  • Pet hair and dander
  • Dust mites and allergens
  • Spills and odours

Over time, this accumulation can cause health issues such as allergies, asthma, and skin irritation — especially for children and sensitive individuals. Regular cleaning ensures that your blanket remains a source of warmth and comfort, not a breeding ground for bacteria.

The Benefits of Professional Blanket Cleaning Services

While some people attempt to wash their blankets at home, it’s not always easy or effective. Here's why professional services are worth it:

1. Deep Cleaning With Commercial Machines

Most home washing machines aren't built to handle heavy blankets — especially wool, weighted, or king-sized ones. Professional laundries use industrial-grade washers that provide a deeper clean without damaging the fabric.

2. Fabric-Specific Care

Blankets are made from various materials — cotton, wool, fleece, microfibre, and even blends. Each requires different handling. A professional service knows how to treat each fabric gently yet effectively, avoiding shrinkage, fibre damage, or loss of softness.

3. Stain and Odour Removal

From food spills to pet accidents, tough stains and lingering smells can be hard to remove at home. Expert cleaners use specialised detergents and pre-treatments to lift stains and neutralise odours without harsh chemicals.

4. Time-Saving and Convenient

Washing and drying a blanket at home can take hours, and sometimes days. With pickup and delivery options, professional services take the hassle out of your hands, saving both time and energy.

5. Increased Longevity

Frequent incorrect washing can cause blankets to wear out quickly. Regular professional cleaning not only keeps your blanket fresh but also preserves its texture, colour, and structure.

What Types of Blankets Can Be Cleaned?

At our blanket cleaning facility, we accept a wide variety of blanket types, including:

  • Wool and cashmere blankets
  • Fleece and microfibre throws
  • Cotton and polyester blend blankets
  • Duvets and comforters
  • Electric blankets (with specific cleaning options)
  • Weighted blankets
  • Baby blankets

If you're unsure whether your blanket is safe to clean professionally, our team is happy to check the care label and advise you on the best cleaning method.

How Often Should You Wash Your Blanket?

Experts recommend washing blankets every 3 to 4 weeks, especially if they are used regularly. If you have pets, allergies, or use your blanket directly on the body (without a top sheet), then bi-weekly cleaning is a good rule of thumb.

In seasonal storage cases (like winter duvets or summer throws), it’s important to wash them before and after storage to maintain hygiene and avoid mildew or pest problems.
