When you become a parent, you immediately have this new little person you are responsible for. Do you ever feel the weight of that responsibility? I know I do, especially when it comes to making decisions for our household that can affect our health. Have you ever thought about all the small decisions you make in any given week that can have a profound impact on your family?
Here is an example.
When my daughter was young, she suffered from horrible eczema. It would get so bad that she would scratch her arms and legs until they were bleeding and she was crying. It was heart-breaking. The first thing the doctor told us when we went in was to check our laundry detergent and to stop using dryer sheets. It resolved 98% of her struggle.
Here is what I learned. It’s important to consider the products and services we are using in all areas of our lives and take into account the impact they really have on our lives. It’s not just dryer sheets. It’s not just the laundry soap I use. It’s the health and wellbeing of my family.

This is one of the reasons I’m excited to tell you about Brio Laundry & Cleaners in Bellingham, Wash. I had the pleasure of meeting Travis, the owner of Brio Laundry & Cleaners and talk to him about their family-owned business, why green cleaning is important, how Brio Cleaners can save you time and the innovative new things coming down the road for this industry!
Why is Green Cleaning Important?
Aside from my personal testimony and the actual evidence I have seen in our household when we use green products, finding a professional cleaner that uses green cleaning is essential when you have your dry cleaning done. Chemicals and solvents that have been used for years cause cancer and many other health problems. You don’t want chemicals to remain in your clothes. A standard dry cleaner leaves ton of chemicals in your clothes which will be soaked into your skin. The process at Brio Cleaners removes all of the gunk left behind by detergents, optical brighteners, fabric softeners, etc…
Bottom Line: Your health is worth it.
Saving Time
Brio Laundry & Cleaners offers pick up and drop off Monday – Friday with no pickup or delivery fee. You can see their service area at briocleaners.com! Plus, Brio drop box lockers are coming soon. They can wash anything you can wear. Wool, silk, cotton, Gortex, blankets, down comforters, pillows and the list goes on. I personally had a comforter cleaned as well as a wool jacket and cotton shirt! The items came out super soft and smelling great! I especially love that if you are a sports mom and you have sports clothes that might need extra attention, they have the ability to clean so many different types of materials.
Everything they use is natural and bio-safe. Also, how gorgeous is the inside of Brio Laundry? Who knew a place to do laundry could be so beautiful?
Innovation
I think it’s really important how Brio Laundry & Cleaners cares about the people that work for them and the world in which we live. Their motto is People. Planet Profit. They want to make sure they are taking care of people first and foremost. Both customers and employees. They care about the products they are using and how those products impact the environment. In fact, they are the first professional cleaners to have bags that are made of recycled food. They are fully compostable! That saves over 6,000 plastic bags each ear. Their washers are super-efficient and use a lot less utilities than the national average laundry equipment.
Not only are you going to impact the health of your family when you use a Brio Laundry & Cleaners but you will impact the world in which you live and support the local community.
Touring a professional cleaner was fascinating. Getting to see the equipment that was used and the care that goes into taking care of garments and customers was amazing. The staff at Brio Laundry & Cleaners truly loves and cares about what they are doing. They were recently recognized by Planet Laundry for the work they do in the field of laundry.
