B. Attach a repair tag to each coat or scrub piece. One tag per coat is necessary. The barcode will be encoded with whatever information is on the repair tag.

C. Log in your Coats — CHS, Jules Stein, BSRB and MRL can use the web-based log sheet.

D. Photograph your coats and/or the log sheet for your personal records.

E. Deposit garment(s) into Retapes Bin. Please note: CHS does not have separate bins for retape or drop-off.

F. The vendor visits every Friday. Newly enrolled coats (or retapes) take three weeks to return, and will have a new Mission Linen Barcode Label (shown below). Returning coats take two weeks to return. Take note of the barcode number (750xxxxxxxxx) and keep it for your records. Follow directions at your chosen location for pickup details.
