All bed pillows are renovated by the Pillow-Vac-System. Pillows are cleaned one at a time. Old ticking is discarded and replaced with an exclusive new feather proof, down proof ticking. Feathers are removed from the ticking, sanitized, deodorized and the same feathers are encased in the new ticking.
First the feathers are emptied from the old ticking into the pillow machine. The feathers are agitated by rotating brushes which fluff the feathers and allow the dirt and non-feather particles to settle to the bottom of the machine. Ozone lights deodorize the feathers as they are fluffed.
After cleaning, the feathers are blown into a new pillow ticking then sealed in a plastic bag for return to the customer. Old pillow ticks are returned by request only.
Pillows can be combined, divided or equalized.
Many soiled pillows contain up to a pound of dust and other foreign materials. After sanitizing, these are removed. If additional feathers are required to properly fill out the pillow, we will furnish replacement feathers. About 3 lbs. of good feathers make one regular pillow.
When pillows are divided to make more than the number sent in, a charge for each pillow returned will be made plus the equalizing charge. Pillows made from a feather bed are charged by the pillow plus an additional per order charge.
