With more than 18 billion disposable diapers thrown into landfills every year, many parents want to do their part to reduce that number and help the environment. Some choose to use cloth diapers. Although many people think of using cloth diapers as messy and inconvenient, many cloth diapers can be used with a velcro-fastened cover. Using cloth diapers has many advantages. If you do decide on cloth diapers, you will need a a diaper service. A diaper service is a professional laundry service that rents reusable cotton diapers to those who need them, including families with infants, day cares and nurseries. Each diaper service operates a little differently, but has the same premise.
The diaper service will supply you with a special hamper with a heavyweight bag or liner and high-quality air freshener to keep your home smelling clean. The soiled diapers go directly into the hamper; they do not need to be rinsed or soaked. The service picks up the dirty diapers and delivers clean ones. This is usually done on a weekly basis. A customer can also order diaper covers, if needed. Basically, the service rents customers the use of diapers to fit their baby’s needs and size.
The diaper service professionally cleans the diapers with special equipment and formula. Diaper services use public-health standards for cleaning and they eliminate all bacteria by using 13 changes of water and drying at high temperatures. Prices may vary depending on the amount of diapers needed, which can change as your baby gets older and starts potty training. Depending on the number of diapers a baby uses, some customers may save 50-60% by switching to cloth diapers.
Many areas have a local diaper service. You should be able to find one in your local phone book or online. Neighbors, friends, daycares, doctor’s offices and hospitals may have recommendations as well. When you are ready to start diaper service, you will want to research different services and obtain information regarding the amount of diapers to order, cost, use of diaper covers, diaper delivery dates and how to fold the diapers.
You use the diaper, then dispose it.
I am aware of three diaper services that serve the Long Island, New York area. The first is General Diaper Service. It is located at 210 West Main Street in Patchogue. They have a local phone number and a toll free 800 number. Their toll free number is 800-356-8602. The second diaper service is Nature's Premier Diaper Service. It offers organic diapers and is also located in Patchogue at 54 Bridge Avenue. Their phone number is 631-275-0559. Last but not least, Riteway Diaper Service is the third diaper service option available. Although they are located in Brooklyn, they do serve Long Island. You may reach them at 718-647-9000. Hopefully one of these services will meet your needs.

There are cloth diapers which can be washed and reused. If you want to take this option you can actually call a diaper service and have them clean and return new diapers to you.
They are not as effective as a regular diaper because stuff can leak through it. Many people feel like the best route is to get the help of a service to clean the diapers for them.
I don't think there ae diaper services working anywhere these days. Cloth has been replaced with the throw away type.
Dog diaper pads are fairly descriptive - they are used as diapers for dogs. They work in the same manner that baby or adult diapers work. They also come in various sizes.
Your baby's diaper may be leaking due to a poor fit, the diaper being too full, or the diaper not being put on properly. To prevent leaks, make sure the diaper is the right size, change it regularly, and ensure it is fitted snugly around your baby's legs and waist. You can also try using a different brand or type of diaper that may work better for your baby's needs.
The early diapers were cloth and mothers kept the dirty diapers in a diaper pail to be washed. Sometimes they had a diaper service that picked up the dirty ones and gave them back clean diaper's. It wasn't until the 70's that disposable diapers came about.
Yes, they work wonderfully.

To prevent diaper leaking out the back of your baby's diaper, make sure the diaper is the right size and fits snugly, position it correctly, and consider using diaper inserts or changing the diaper more frequently.
