Our Factory Cleaning is as responsible as you can get
When it comes to cleaning oriental rugs and area carpets in the World’s Largest Cleaning Facility we are using proper disposal techniques. All the water and cleaning detergents are released into our sanitary sewer. The effluent travels thru the sewer system to the Passaic Valley Sewerage Commission where it is properly treated and released into New York Harbor.
In order to protect and preserve local streams and rivers from water pollution, the PVSC operates one of the country’s largest treatment plants for the waste waters of northern NJ. PVSC strives to improve local water quality in accordance with federal and state water quality legislation.
