The Perfect Texas Road Trip

/in , /by

Summer is a time for vacations and adventures. Here in Texas, we have access to so many destinations, that we want to hit all of them! Here is our suggestion for putting together the ultimate Texas road trip.

Slovacek’s

Start your road trip out on the right foot by eating a tasty snack. Located in West, Texas, Slovacek’s is home to the most famous kolaches and summer sausage in Texas. Stop here to stretch your legs and enjoy the Czech pastry, filled with delicious local fruit, cream cheese and Texas pecans.

Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center

Have you driven through the beautiful Texas countryside and seen beautiful wildflowers littering the sides of the road? You have Lady Bird Johnson to thank for that. Former President Lyndon B. Johnson’s wife set in motion The Beautification Act of 1965, which called for control of outdoor advertising, and that trucks drove across Texas highways, spewing loads of wildflower seeds along the road to beautify the highways. Now, Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, located in Austin, Texas conducts innovative plant research, develops educational materials and consults on landscape development projects all over the state. Tour the grounds and learn all about the many wildflowers of Texas.

Odessa Meteor Crater

Did you know the second largest crater caused by a meteor in the United States is right in your own backyard in Odessa, Texas? It is! Measuring about 550 feet in diameter, this is one void you’ll want to scream into.

Marfa Lights

Since the early 19th century, ranchers, apaches, high school sweethearts and famous meteorologists alike have reported seeing sourceless lights dance on the horizon southeast of Marfa, Texas, in an uninhabited area that is extremely difficult to traverse. Sometimes these mystery lights are red, sometimes blue, sometimes white, and they often appear randomly throughout the night. A phenomenon to behold!

Here at Service Uniform, we love going on adventures. These are just a few of our favorite Texas spots to include on our ultimate road trip. Let us know where your favorite Colorado road trip spots are on Facebook!

Why Accuracy is Important to Our Customers

/in , , /by

Accuracy and reliability: two fundamental values we hold close here at Service Uniform. Accuracy is not only important to us from a business standpoint, but it is important to you, our customers. Here is how our process and our standards affect and improve your business.

Accuracy, or a lack of it, will have a huge impact on the overall experience of customers. When accuracy is maintained, the result is a happy customer that will be a long-time advocate of the brand–that’s our customers! We take order accuracy very seriously at Service uniforms, because we know you depend on us to get your employees’ uniforms to you on time, every time. We also ensure that your uniforms are properly cleaned, inspected, and replaced if needed

How are we able to guarantee accuracy? The answer is simple, RFID Technology. Our Blue Chip System® works with both barcodes and RFID chips at the same time to make sure we know exactly where your uniforms are at all times from the start or finish of our cleaning process.

How does the Blue Chip System® work? It uses two computer-aided sorts that put garments in perfect route, account, and wearer order. Each garment is identified the second it enters our facility. This technology allows us to automate service orders on repairs, keep track of garments through the cleaning process, and return your garments on time, with 100% accuracy.

We have certified inspectors who thoroughly inspect each garment, on a weekly basis. Our inspectors keep an eye out for normal wear and tear so that we can proactively replace or upgrade garments, free of charge, as part of our service. You can count Service Uniform to get your uniforms to you on time and in tip-top condition because we go the extra mile to ensure we deliver only the best to our customers.

The best way to deliver on our accuracy and reliability promises is to provide excellent customer service through the use of our dual system tracking. Our customer service agents are waiting for your call and will gladly answer any and all questions you may have regarding our services. At Service Uniform, accuracy and reliability are our number one priority.

Our Top 5 Family Fun Activities in San Antonio

/in , /by

Summer is here! The kids are out of school and it’s time to take advantage of the sunshine and blue skies. Our beautiful home here in San Antonio  gives us access to so much family fun during the season. We’ll see you out at some of these great festivals, fairs and outings!

Visit The Witte Museum

Every Tuesday from 3:00pm to 8:00pm, The Witte Museum offers free general admission! Take the kids to explore science, health, natural history and the heritage of the early South Texas People in the three-story Witte Museum. Kids will enjoy enhanced activities and programming created especially for free Tuesday!

Go Birdwatching

Just south of San Antonio, parents and kids both can enjoy identifying different birds and wildlife at the Mitchell Lake Audubon Center. The wetland habitat is one of the last critical stopover grounds before the Texas Coast, where 98.5% of migratory bird species in the US pass through. Admission is just $5.00 per person, and $2.00 for children ages 6-16. Kids under 5 are free!

Go on an urban adventure at Pica Pica Plaza

Located south of downtown San Antonio, Pica Pica Plaza is a vibrant shopping center filled with locally-owned shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and retail stores. Modeled after street markets in Latin America, Pica Pica Plaza brings a wonderful cultural experience indoors. After parents are done shopping, kids can play at Flip’z, a trampoline park.

Stay In With The Family

During the summer months, Denver temperatures climb into the 90’s and going out for the day can sometimes be an ordeal. Why not stay in with your family? Staying at home can still be a fun activity for the kids. Build a blanket fort around the TV, pop some popcorn and watch movies. Have an indoor campout!

Movies in The Park

This summer, there are several offerings for free movies in the park events. Grab up your favorite park blanket, pack some snacks and watch movies like “Little Rascals” and “Minions” this summer at Movies by Moonlight at Travis Park.

Summertime is one of the best season in San Antonio, and at Service Uniform, we’re excited to enjoy some time with our families outside of the office! Our uniforms with moisture management and durability provide our customers the perfect clothing for going from office to play with the kids!
