RE-USABLE VIP BAGS – DIFFERENT SERVICE TYPE BY COLOUR
Highmark Drycleaners provides each customer with VIP re-usable bags of different colours free of charge upon registration (one for each service type). Each of these bags has a tag with the individual customer’s name and account ID. Additional bags may be purchased at standard retail prices.

SERVICE AUTHORISATION
Although most garments and household items can be serviced in a manner satisfactory to the customer, there may be a potential risk of damage in servicing certain items. When such a situation arises, Highmark Drycleaners will contact you by telephone to discuss the issue. If you choose to submit the item for servicing, we will undertake the service based on your verbal agreement and acknowledgement of the risk of potential damage. Highmark Drycleaners will not be responsible for any damage that may ensue, although we will take every precaution to prevent any such damage.
PERSONAL ITEMS AND VALUABLES
Kindly ensure that all of your garments are checked thoroughly for money, jewellery and/or other valuables prior to you handing them over to us. Highmark Drycleaners will make every effort to return such valuables, but will not be held liable for the loss or damage of any such items. Also, kindly ensure that you remove all collar stiffeners and cuff links prior to our collection as we will not be held accountable for their loss or damage.
LEATHER/SUEDE ITEMS
Although most suedes, leather and fur clean beautifully, the removal of all stains and marks CAN NOT be guaranteed. Some slight changes in colour and texture maybe noted after cleaning, therefore all matching accessories MUST be cleaned together to avoid possible differences.
We exercise care and use caution and safe, tested methods in processing your items however we cannot be held responsible for improper tanning, dyeing, gluing (which may result in staining), shrinkage or other manufacturing defects and damages present prior to our acceptance which may become more apparent after cleaning (including natural deterioration from wear and tear and scars in the skins).
All garments without manufacturers cleaning instructions or purchased overseas will be cleaned at customer’s own risk.
CUSTOMER BAGS , HANGERS AND PLASTIC GAREMENT COVERS
Highmark Drycleaners are not responsible for any bags, hangers or other items sent with your garments. All garments will be returned with Highmark Drycleanerss bags or hangers. If you wish to keep suit bags, doona bags, expensive hangers etc. please do not include them for collection with your garments as we accept no responsibility for their loss or damage.
We endeavour to re-use/recycle hangers and garment plastic wherever possible. Please feel free to return any of our hangers/plastic garment covers with your next order.
BUSINESS SHIRTS – MISSING/BROKEN BUTTONS
Although Highmark Drycleaners takes every care, due to wear and tear, shirt buttons can become loose or broken during the cleaning/ironing process. Should this occur Highmark Drycleaners will automatically replace the broken/missing button with any available spare button on the garment for our standard button replacement fee.
ALTERATIONS AND REPAIRS
Highmark Drycleaners can perform small alterations or repairs simultaneously to our other services.
Please place any items that you wish altered or repaired in a separate plastic bag together with a note detailing the alteration/repair required. Place this plastic bag within the appropriate service type bag (please note we only perform alterations/repairs in conjunction with another service to the same item i.e. dry cleaning etc.).
We will then perform the alteration or repair prior to the simultaneous service. Items requiring alterations or repairs will take additional processing time and will be delivered at the next available opportunity.
SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

DAMAGE OR LOSS
All damage claims/complaints should be brought to the notice of Highmark Drycleaners within 24 hours of the item(s) being delivered.
The very nature of dry-cleaning, laundry and ironing services renders it impossible for us to guarantee against loss of colour, colour bleeding or shrinkage.
Highmark Drycleaners is not liable for tears or damage that may result from defects or inherent weaknesses in any material that were not apparent during the time of processing.
Highmark Drycleaners exercises extreme caution in order to avoid misplacements or loss of items in our care. However, in the event of such a misfortune occurring, it should be reported to us within 24 hours of delivery. Highmark Drycleaners’s count of garments is final and deemed correct in the event no complaints are received within 24 hours.
Highmark Drycleaners is a proud member of the Dry Cleaning Institute of Australia and the International Dry Cleaning and Laundry Institute. As such when assessing a claim for damage or loss and determining any compensation payable, we use the widely recommended and accepted International Fair Claims Guide For Consumer Textile Products.
