Signs a Commercial Washer Needs Service

Ask any company you call which commercial brands and machine types it services, such as top-load coin machines, front-load washers or washer-extractors.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
