Cleaning and caring for your American Flag

The American Flag is a great way for homeowners and businesses to show their appreciation for our country. Here in New England, we see hundreds of flags flying in our neighborhoods, and we can’t help but feel a sense of pride every time we see the red, white and blue. The flag represents our past and our future as American citizens, and reminds us of the freedoms we have here in the U.S.

Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, and more are holidays in which we proudly display our flags, but we also see them flying throughout the year. Because we’re so proud of our country and the people in it, Best Cleaners happily offers free flag cleaning all year round.

The American Flag is a symbol of our country, so respect it by keeping it clean and presentable. Ordinary laundering will work fine on a flag, but it can drain the colors and wear down the fabric. Our GreenEarth cleaning method will safely remove the dirt, air pollutants, salts and other soils from the fabric without harming your flag.

If your flag displays signs of wear, it is okay to cut off ragged ends and re-hem the flag. But before you take scissors to your flag, talk with us. We can explain the best way to repair your flag without ruining the height to length ratio by cutting away the edges.

Nothing shows American spirit more than a vibrant flag hanging outside the house. Frequent, proper cleaning will help your flag last longer and Best wants to help. Give us a call today. It’s on our dime.
