I am sure that will be well received by the line. Not so much by the dry cleaners though.

The PD cleans your unis for you? For some reason, I thought that was officer's responsibility...I always wondered about their high dry cleaning bills;)

But how will they handle biohazards like blood, feces, and vomit? In the past, uniforms that were contaminated were sent to the cleaners, how will this be handled now? In other words, are you really going to wash your uniform in your family machine after you've wrestled a 1234 individual with Hep C, who's covered himself in his own feces and then run through a plate glass door? Has anybody thought about this?

@RebeccaJ,

The officers pay for the cleaning, but department provides a room for the dry cleaning to be picked up.

@ H,

Good point. I'll ask at roll call today.

My dept. has a policy of sending your contaminated uniform off to be professionally cleaned and decon'd if it has blood/feces/bodily fluids on it.

I told them they can just keep it.
