Safety
Protocols

Hurst has always taken great pride in the thorough job our staff does in cleaning and sanitizing our instruments for redistribution, however, given the safety concerns posed in recent years, we wanted you to know specifically was is done to clean our rental instruments:

Each brass instrument has been cleaned with an acid-based wash and then wiped down with alcohol.
Each woodwind instrument has been wiped down with Sterisol and/or alcohol, inside and out.
Percussion equipment (bells, drums, sticks, mallets, hardware, and cases) have all been cleaned with alcohol.
String instruments (fingerboards, tuning pegs, and strings) and bows (sticks and frogs) have been wiped down with alcohol. The bodies are cleaned with wood polish, as alcohol will damage the finish.
All mouthpieces have been scrubbed out, disinfected, and are now sealed in plastic for redistribution.

We are still offering curb-side service to any customer who requests it.
We have hand sanitizer stations throughout the store for staff and customers to use regularly.
Staff practices regular handwashing and sanitization of frequently used areas, such as the front desk.
