Dry Cleaning FAQs

Dry Cleaning is a mystery to most people. What are we actually doing to your clothes? Why do we charge what we do? We wanted to answer some of our customers' most frequent questions.

What actually happens to my clothes at the dry cleaner?

All dry cleaning means is without water. Dry cleaning operates under the same principles as washing except rather than using water to deliver soap to a garment, it uses silicone. The fibers that make up your typical dry clean garment cannot handle being soaked in water so silicone is a more delicate alternative. The silicone carries detergent to clothing which bonds to dirt, oils, dander and stains, lifting it away. Dry Cleaning is not something that you can replicate at home by throwing items in the dryer with a dryer sheet.

Why are all dry cleaners priced differently?

Many people think dry cleaning is dry cleaning and that one cleaner isn’t different than another; but that’s not true. Dry Cleaning is a service industry and there are a lot of ways to cut corners. Just as you can get a haircut for $20 or $100 dollars depending on where you go, dry cleaning prices depend on a variety of factors.

We are considered a higher end cleaner for a few reasons:

  • Our green cleaning technology
  • Free pick-up and delivery service to your home or office
  • Extensive and ongoing staff training
  • Phenomenal customer service
  • Replacement of shirt buttons free of charge
  • Belief that we should pay a fair and living wage to our staff
  • Ensuring that every garment is pressed and inspected to perfection

If price is your only consideration, we may not be the cleaner for you. If you’re looking for exceptional value and clothes that look like-new, we are your cleaner. Dry cleaning is an art that we have mastered over the last 69 years.

How long does dry cleaning take? What are your hours?

Our normal turnaround time is next day service.  We know that’s not favorable to everyone’s schedule so we also offer a same day service (in by 8am back to you by 5pm Monday-Friday).
