Dry Cleaning vs. Regular Laundry — What’s the Difference?

If you’ve ever wondered whether your clothes need dry cleaning or a regular wash, you’re not alone. Both are important, but they serve different purposes. Here’s a quick breakdown to help you understand.

What Is Dry Cleaning?

Dry cleaning uses special solvents instead of water. It’s perfect for delicate fabrics and items like:

  • Suits

  • Dresses

  • Wool coats

  • Silk and specialty fabrics

Dry cleaning keeps clothes looking sharp and extends their lifespan.

What About Regular Laundry?

Everyday clothes like jeans, T-shirts, and towels are best washed with water and detergent. At our laundromat, you can choose self-serve coin laundry or use our drop-off wash & fold service.

Why Having Both Matters

Some items need the deep care of dry cleaning, while others just need a quick wash. Having both services available in one place makes life easier for you.
