Biggest WDF load?

Is there a special process or a special treatment that you need to do to get rid of the smoke smell? If I advertised "specializes in laundering items with smoke damage" what would I be doing differently than my competitor down the street?

I used to do work for a fire restoration company. We would routinely get 500-700 lb drop-offs.

The trick to getting the smell of smoke out of the laundry? Oxygen bleach.
Back in those days before "Oxyclean", we used Clorox II which is basically the same thing only with a perfume scent added.

Doug,

We have also done work for a fire restoration company. The load was about 600 lbs and I used regular Gain soap powder and baking soda. It worked just fine. Wish I still had that account! New owners took over.

We had one 984 pound order. Nursing Home fired their entire laundry staff. Immigration.

5,000 pounds, once doing a hotel's laundry for a week when they had a fire, and once for a Mississippi riverboat that was coming out of 3 years of storage.

Nice! I thank God for these opportunities.

We broke our own record this past weekend. One of our customers brought in 546lbs. I think we're going to see a lot of those kinds of drops this summer
