We began our route in Brooklyn a year ago, and we’ve really enjoyed serving both old clients who moved over the river and new clients who’ve had trouble finding a local cleaner to meet their exacting standards. Due to demand, we’ve extended service and created a permanent route. Meurice now serves Brooklyn every Thursday for both pickup and delivery.

As always, you can expect Meurice’s unparalleled commitment to service and attention to detail in cleaning. Our full menu of services is available in Brooklyn – from specialty goods such as handbag restoration to interior cleaning services. We also offer tailoring and alterations – we’ll even send a seamstress to work with you in your home.

I love spring cleaning each year because it’s a chance to start fresh and clean out the clutter and grime of the past year. You should love spring cleaning too, because it couldn’t be easier with Meurice.

We’ll clean your home and your wardrobe top to bottom – from drapery, upholstery and rugs to custom dry cleaning to restoring handbags. Plus, we’re extending sweet offers exclusively to our email subscribers.

Complimentary Storage: We know closet space is at a premium in the city – let Meurice send your winter wardrobe on a summer vacation in our climate controlled 15,000 square-foot storage facility. They’ll be fresh and ready for complimentary delivery when you are. Please note your winter items must be cleaned with Meurice prior to storage.

Two For One Bedding: My recommendation is to start spring cleaning with bedding. It’s critical to thoroughly clean bedding regularly, because pillows, linens and comforters absorb so much body oil, skin, even dust mites (gross!) During spring cleaning, Meurice will hygienically treat any second bedding item for free when a higher price item is cleaned as well.

Some brief words of advice for your footwear:

If you do get leather shoes salty, it’s important to have them cleaned right away.

If you get your shoes wet, but not salted, dry them out at home in a warm place not directly adjacent to a heat source.

While they’re drying, stuff them with newspaper or magazine pages – or better yet, shoe trees – so they keep their form.

I always tell my clients to treat their shoes the same way they’d treat a handbag, with plenty of gentle care and conditioning, your favorite brogues or pumps can last just as long. By the way, I won’t make any lame puns, but we can restore and protect your Uggs, or any other sheepskin boot, too!

Come in today to see how we can restore your footwear, and keep them looking great, even in trecherous weather. Offer valid in-store, or schedule a pickup online.

Activewear always takes a beating, and now is the perfect time to freshen your gear up. Simply bring in your ski jackets, ski pants, ski hats and gloves – or any other skiwear – and we’ll clean them at 20 percent off. Yes, it’s safe to clean skiwear, especially with our Aquacare process – it doesn’t get any greener. We’ll even re-apply waterproofing after cleaning. Offer valid in-store, or schedule a pickup online.

Keep Clean,

Junior League of Long Island volunteers from their March 2011 Kids in the Kitchen event

Meurice is accepting clothing donations on behalf of the Junior League of Long Island, who are seeking professional attire for local women transitioning into the workforce. It’s all part of their fifth annual First Step Program, which helps Long Island women referred from local social service agencies, shelters, and food pantries re-enter the work force by taking the “first step.” Junior League members personally assist attendees with selecting appropriate clothing for their career. The JLLI also provides lunch, manicures and child care will be provided to all participants for the day at no cost. There will also an executive business coach on hand to help with resumes and interview practice.

The event is held in conjunction with many local and state charitable organizations and social services, but they need your help too in order to secure employment for as many women as possible. Clothing in all styles and sizes will be accepted, as well accessories such as shoes and portfolios. Most women will be interviewing for entry-level positions, so business-casual slacks and blouses are especially in demand.

Donations can also be left with any of Meurice’s three locations, at 31 University Place, 245 East 57th Street, or 249 Plandome Road in Manhasset. The JLLI will also accept clothing at their thrift store on Old Northern Boulevard in Roslyn. And by the way, don’t miss out on a special discount at Donna Karan’s Americana Manhasset location! They’ve arranged an event in support of the JLLI on November 17th!

To learn more, you can visit the JLLI’s website, or find them on Facebook and Twitter.

Your personal stroller service station (or the closest thing to one)

Say goodbye to the stale Cheerios that have been lingering as well as any leftover mystery liquids. (Is that apple juice or something else?) Meurice’s team of specialists is willing to tackle the dirtiest strollers and car seats while using the safest, most gentle Eco-Care processes. So, let your kids be kids!

Handbag Patrol

Few things come between women and their handbags—except a spilled cocktail or two, dirty subway grime, and the occasional uncapped pen. Meurice’s team of experts has been cleaning names like Chanel, McQueen and Fendi for years. Not only will they thoroughly clean your best friend, but if you ask them nicely, they will even apply stain repellant at no extra cost. Just think, you’ll never have to retire another Birkin again!

Outerwear Brigade

We know what a workout your outerwear gets. Meurice will revitalize last season’s gear so it is fresh and ready for fall. After all, these pieces are worn on a weekly basis! All outwear is cleaned with processes specific to the fabric and construction, with plenty of hand-care attention along the way. And, if you mention it, they’ll even apply protective finishes to repel water and stains, at no extra cost!

Contact Hunts Point Linen - 888-538-2010

We’ve heard for years from our friends in restaurants, medical practices and co-op boards that a good linen service is hard to find. Unfortunately, since we weren’t in the linen business, we could only offer our best recommendations. Recently, however, I came to a realization: we’ve worked with nice clothes for years at Meurice, but what we really enjoy is working with nice people.

That’s why I’ve launched Hunts Point Linen – a new company dedicated to commercial linen needs from uniforms to bedding. We service clients in the restaurant business, at hotels and spas and even in food processing. Our leadership team counts many of the brains behind Meurice, and brings decades of experience with both cleaning and customer service.

So, if you need linens or apparel for your employees, let’s talk. I’m excited to be launching Hunts Point Linen, and I’m confident that we can relieve aggravation and cut your expenses!

Keep Clean,

Wayne Edelman
