Frequently Asked Questions
We get a lot of the same questions before someone signs on with us. That's fair. Below, you'll find answers about who we are, how our programs work, and what it's actually like to work with Sanico. Still have something we didn't cover? Give us a call.
About Sanico
Sanico is headquartered in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, with laundry centers and depots serving Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, and the Gulf Coast. If you're in the Southeast, there's a good chance we already have a driver near you.
We've been on these routes since 1988. Our founders started the company with a van and a pallet of mats, and we've grown almost entirely through word of mouth and referrals ever since.
The big nationals are good at signing contracts. After that, you're often dealing with a call center, rotating reps, and billing surprises. Sanico is locally owned and Southeast-based. When you call, someone who knows your account picks up. When something's wrong, we fix it.
We work with automotive shops, restaurants, food processing facilities, schools, healthcare facilities, manufacturers, and most other businesses across the Southeast. If your team needs to look professional and your facility needs to stay clean, we can build a program around you.
Fill out our quote form or give us a call. We'll learn about your operation, build a program that fits, and get you up and running faster than you'd expect.
Uniform Rental, Facility & Chemical Services
A managed uniform service handles everything from garment selection and fitting to weekly pickup, laundering, and delivery. Your provider tracks inventory, handles repairs, and keeps your team stocked. All you do is wear them
When you buy uniforms, you're responsible for purchasing, laundering, replacing, and tracking everything. When you rent, your provider handles all of that on a weekly basis. Most businesses find renting saves time, reduces costs, and keeps their team looking more consistent.
No. Sanico owns the inventory. You pay for the weekly service. There's no upfront investment required to get started.
We provide mats, shop towels, mop heads, restroom supplies, and more, all professionally laundered and restocked on a weekly schedule. No separate vendors, no extra orders.
We carry the cleaning and hygiene products your facility actually needs, including restroom chemicals, sanitizers, and more, delivered on the same route as your uniforms and facility products.
Everything goes through our processing facilities where it's laundered professionally, inspected piece by piece, and returned ready to use. We launder restaurant and food processing uniforms above 140 degrees using commercial-grade chemicals to meet food safety standards.
Yes. We work with businesses of all sizes. Whether you have five employees or five hundred, we build a program scaled to your operation and adjust it as your team grows.
Call us. You'll reach someone who knows your account. We'll make it right on the next delivery, or sooner if it's urgent.
We run routes across Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Kentucky, and the Gulf Coast. If you're in the Southeast, reach out and we'll confirm coverage for your location.
