Frequently Asked Questions

What types of cleaning services does A Cleaner World offer?

A Cleaner World provides a wide range of services to meet your needs, including professional dry cleaning using the exclusive Sanitone process, Wash & Fold laundry service priced by the pound, and specialized care for formal wear and wedding gowns. Commercial services, including uniform rental and restroom supply management, are also available.

How does the free pickup and delivery service work?

The home pickup and delivery service is completely free—you pay the same prices as you would in-store. You don't even need to be home for the service; simply leave your items for pickup by 8:00 am, and A Cleaner World will deliver them back to a pre-determined, weather-sheltered spot.

Will dry cleaning frequently cause my clothes to wear out?

No, professional dry cleaning does not wear out your clothes. In fact, studies show that abrasive soil and dirt trapped in the fibers cause more damage over time than the cleaning process itself. Regular cleaning helps garments last longer and look their best.

How does the Wash & Fold laundry service work?

It's simple! Just place all your machine-washable items like t-shirts, towels, and sheets in your bag. The team at A Cleaner World handles all the sorting, stain pre-treatment, washing, and drying. Your clothes are returned neatly folded and ready to be put away, typically within 24 hours.

Are there any special promotions or deals available?

Yes, A Cleaner World offers fantastic 'Wild Wednesday' weekly specials! You can take advantage of deals such as getting 5 dress shirts laundered for $16.75, 5 pairs of pants cleaned for $36.99, or tops (blouses or shirts) cleaned for just $7.95.

What makes A Cleaner World an environmentally friendly choice?

A Cleaner World is committed to protecting the environment by using advanced distillation equipment to purify and recycle solvents, meeting or exceeding all clean air and water standards. The company also recycles hangers and uses plastic bags made from 50% recycled materials.

How should I care for a wedding gown after the ceremony?

It's highly recommended to have your wedding gown professionally cleaned as soon as possible to treat invisible stains from things like champagne or cake. For long-term storage, A Cleaner World offers preservation services that place the gown in a special chest to be kept in a cool, dry, and dark location.
