As the retail industry begins to re-open during this COVID-19 crisis, we want you to know that Margaret’s Bridal Team is here to support you with our Bridal Gown Decontamination Service.
Early on in this pandemic we began to envision what type of services we could offer to help our clients and retailers. We have been monitoring all the information available and have developed unique processes and equipment to assist with the decontamination of both new wedding dresses and customer-owned gowns.
We have a decontamination option that doesn’t require a full cleaning for gowns and limits exposure to staff and brides between customer try-ons in-store and online.
We are proud to offer our Southern California retail partners an affordable, expedited, proprietary decontamination service suited for EVERYTHING–all fabrics, embellishments and different types of bridal gowns and articles that are currently in your inventory, as well as client returns.
For most items, we would be conducting both heat dwell treatment and Hydroxyl exposure. Both treatments, individually, are adequate for decontamination and safe for new merchandise.
With this service, garments stay on their original hangers and it will NOT be necessary to remove the security ID tags. We can also decontaminate display pieces, furnishings or any other items that are in need of decontamination.
Our drivers are available in our local delivery areas for pick-up and delivery. If you have three or more gowns, pickup and delivery are COMPLIMENTARY.
Please feel free to call our Bridal Manager, Amy Polozzolo, directly at 858-429-7261 with any questions. We care about your success and want to help you and your business stay safe, healthy and profitable.
