Wheeling firefighters responding to an automatic alarm at 45 W Hintz Road found heavy smoke showing on arrival at Crothall Laundry Services. The first engine asked for a working fire upgrade and made entry into the large industrial laundry facility. The fire was located in a commercial dryer and extinguished before the mutual aid companies arrived.

This from Larry Shapiro:
Wheeling firefighters were dispatched for a reported fire at Crothall Laundry (formerly Hospital Laundry Services) 45 W. Hintz Road around 10PM on Monday (1/30/17). The alarm was upgraded by RED Center after receiving reports of heavy smoke venting from the rear of the large commercial laundry.
Companies stretched two lines into the building and extinguished the fire. The MABAS Division 1 MVU was later used to clear the building of smoke.
