A dry cleaning service typically provides a number of services including cleaning, drying and pressing. Dry cleaning processes differ from you home laundry in that the clothes are washed using dry cleaning solvent rather than water. This type of full-service dry cleaning has three main aims:

• Cleaning – the garment is treated for stains and machine washed in a solvent solution,
• the solvent is removed by draining and spinning the garment.
• Drying – the garments are dried using aeration and heat tumbling.
• Finishing – the garments are machine or hand pressed.

European-style Dry Cleaners often offer a number of other services including:

Wedding gown preservation

Getting your wedding dress cleaned and preserved as soon as possible after your wedding day means it will last for posterity. Wedding dress preservation will:

• gently remove stains
• prevent yellowing

• protect from dust and mildew
• prevent oxidation spots

Wedding dress preservation options also include bagging, boxing and sealing.

Garment Alteration

There may come a time when you buy a pair of pants that are a little long in the leg or you need your favorite dress letting out a little.
