Real Nappy Laundry Service
Cotton Tails provide a nappy laundry service which covers Wrexham. They will deliver you a weekly supply of nappies and once a week will deliver your clean nappies and take away your dirty nappies. The nappies provided are pre-fold nappies and are designed to fit snugly inside a waterproof outer wrap. They also provide several brands of nappy covers, selected to provide the best quality, durability and value. Each wrap has either Velcro or popper fastenings.
Cotton Tails nappies are laundered at 95°C so that they are completely thermally disinfected. The whole process including 3 final rinses insures that no harsh chemicals are next to your baby’s skin. Cost start from about £9.25 a week.
Cotton Tails also offer a Home Laundering Trial Kit, for a single change of £25 (£30 refundable deposit) you can select up to 21 nappies and 7 outer wraps to use and wash yourself in you own home for 2 weeks. There is no obligation to buy nappies after the trial but they do offer free deliver on all orders within their laundry area.
For more details on either the laundry service or trial kits please ring 01244 374521 or log onto www.cottontails.co.uk.
Credit Union Schemes
