About Lafayette Cleaners

For over 75 years, Lafayette Cleaners has been a cornerstone of the community, building a legacy of trust and quality in Greenville. Founded in 1947 by E.H. ‘Hank’ and Helen Vondenhuevel, this establishment is now proudly operated by their third-generation family members, Mike and Martha Vondenhuevel Sartain. This deep-rooted history is a testament to an unwavering commitment to superior customer service and outstanding results. At Lafayette Cleaners, the mission has always been to treat every customer like family and every garment with the utmost care, continuing a tradition of excellence that has been passed down through the generations.

Lafayette Cleaners delivers a comprehensive and meticulous cleaning experience. Services include professional dry cleaning and convenient wash & fold, suitable for everything from delicate fabrics and professional attire to everyday household items. What truly sets the process apart is the scientific approach; garments are cleaned using high-quality, eco-friendly solvents that are regularly refreshed to ensure maximum freshness and brightness. Every item undergoes a detailed journey: individual pre-spotting, careful cleaning, expert hand-pressing, and a rigorous double-inspection before it's ready for pickup. This detailed process not only cleans but also helps extend the life and color of clothing. Adding a personal touch, the team checks every pocket for forgotten items and safely removes delicate buttons or pins, ensuring your belongings are cared for from start to finish.
