Lab Coat Program

COVID-19 Update: Service with Mission Linen was temporarily suspended but has since resumed on the same schedule as before. All the info on this page is accurate; however, please expect delays for ordering new coats.

Safety, Health & Sustainability (SH&S) manages the ordering, distribution, and laundering of lab coats for staff and faculty on campus. If you need to be sized for a lab coat or would like to request lab coats, please send an email to SH&S.

Lab coats are picked up for laundering and returned every other week by Mission Linen. SH&S will routinely collect soiled coats from the designated locations listed below. Please do not deposit any lab coats without a Mission Linen ID barcode on the collar (e.g. student coats) as they may not be returned. In addition, please empty all pockets before depositing.

To ensure your coats are cleaned and returned to you in the timeliest manner possible, place your soiled coat(s) in the hamper at a designated location no later than Monday of Mission Linen’s scheduled pick-up week. Please refer to the information below.
