Since then, the ZIPS family has grown to over 65 locations, serving more than 500,000 customers and cleaning over 20 million garments each year. The core philosophy is simple—operate with maximum efficiency to pass significant savings directly to the community. By streamlining the cleaning process and focusing on what truly matters, ZIPS Cleaners proudly offers a smarter, more affordable way to care for your clothes without ever compromising on quality. This commitment to value and service is what makes ZIPS a trusted name in garment care.

ZIPS Cleaners in Ellicott City provides a comprehensive range of services tailored to your needs. Enjoy the simplicity of one low price for any dry-cleaned garment at just $3.49, with the same great value for Launder & Press services.
