receipt is given by the representative at the time of receiving your laundry
order, we can't be held responsible for any lost laundry. However, be rest

bundles separately and your clothes are never lost in our facility.

reimburse for loss or damages under any one service order should not
exceed the total invoice amount. In the unlikely event of loss or damage to
any item, we will compensate customer in line with the guidelines of
