Wedding dress
Mo K.

Got my wedding dress, my husband's tux, other dresses and suits. Very professional and loved that i can have my wedding dress in a box! Very presentable and i dont have to worry about any possible dust or stains. My go to cleaners :)

Not a single stain remains!

Twice now, I am needed dry cleaning on items that I thought were ruined forever both times however, the dry cleaners came through with incredible results! My beautiful investment pieces were saved from dark liquid spills despite the specialty fabrics they were made from. Both my dress and my shirt look brand new!

Wedding dress preservation
Cheryl T.

After we got married, I decided I wanted to get my wedding dress dry cleaned and preserved. I searched for places around the area and found The Drycleaners on Yelp. There were so many great reviews and pictures so I decided I would bring my wedding dress and veil here. When I arrived and mentioned I was interested in the wedding dress preservation service, I saw a few wedding dresses were brought there for a service so i felt comfortable leaving mine there. Also they had a few dresses that were preserved and ready for pick up so I knew what to expect. They gave me an estimate for how long it would take to complete and they were spot on! They even texted a picture when it was ready for pick up. I love how the dress looks and am extremely happy with the quality of work. Would definitely recommend!

My cape was quite dirty from doing outdoor pictures and they cleaned it twice to get every last bit out and it turned out beautifully.

See all

This place was great! It was very reasonably priced- Walton Saturday with the 20%off! Ready in just…read morea few days and job well done! Depending on which direction you are coming from, it's difficult to get into the lot because of the no u turn sign. Otherwise, happy with the service!

My freshman year of college and on the first day of ECON 2116, I'm sitting in class and my…read moreprofessor said something to me, the enormity of which, I would not fully comprehend until a few decades later. He continued that in this class we would learn about supply/demand curves, calculating present value analysis, and Game Theory. But before all that, he said, if there was nothing else that we left his class with it was this basic truism: "The majority of financial decisions you make in life, can be simplified into trading your time for money." Sounds simple enough, and as a somewhat know-it-all 18 yr old, I thought my prof was full of crap, but now I see how accurate that statement was. Should I take a few extra minutes the night before to prep my food to brown bag lunch or spend $10-$15 eating out? Spend 1-2 hours mowing my lawn, bagging my yard clippings, and collecting leaves - or - spend $100-$200/month on a lawn service. Use my 10 yr old Mr. Coffee machine and a bag of Kirkland brand coffee or make a Starbucks run in the morning? Or as referenced in this review, spend 1-2 hours during the weekend to wash and iron my "work clothes," or use a dry cleaner? Pre-Pandemic, I would schlep into my office 4 days a week in downtown DC and 10 months out of the year, I had to either wear a shirt/tie or a suit. Not that I minded that, but I HATED having to wash and press my own shirts. Dress slacks are easy...men's shirts are a pain. You gotta remember to pre-treat the the collar, and no matter how much starch I sprayed or times I went over a section of the sleeve, the garment would still be a bit "wrinkly." I started using Sandy's Cleaners around 2017 and have a loyal customer ever since. Small local family owned business, and believe it or not, all of the garments are actually cleaned there ON-SITE!!! Most dry cleaners actually send their clothes out to an off-site facility where they are bulk cleaned. Not at Sandy's. There is a plant on the premises, and the friendly folks have always done a great job with my professional wardrobe. What I especially like, is if there is a particularly challenging stain, they will examine said stain and let you know if it can be removed or not. 9 times of out 10, they've been able to get out that errant coffee drip or ketchup splatter on my shirt...but if they can't, they let me know ahead of time. Now that I'm back in my office 2-3 days a week, I find myself dropping stuff off here again on a weekly basis; which is not a big deal since this is just a short detour from my weekly COSTCO run which is 5 min away. Could I go back to laundering and pressing my own shirts at home...sure, but why would I want to "waste" a perfectly good Sunday evening doing this chore when I can outsource it for a reasonable fee? Admittedly, my professor's "advice" was his take on the old "time is money" adage, but his words have held much value as I've progressed through life. Note: Sandy's only accepts cash and personal check. As of this review, men's shirts are $1.85 which is also cheaper than most other places.

Cosmo Cleaners tailoring skills are fantastic. My daughter is getting married in a few weeks and…read moreshe ordered her dress from Etsy. We took it to Cosmo for the fitting and while it just needed some minor work from the waist up (adding a hook above the zipper, repairing the sticky zipper) the train needed to be redone considerably. In addition to not having any bustles to put the train up so the Bride could walk around post ceremony, it was too wide. While the tailoring was not inexpensive, it was very skillfully done and we knew we were in good hands. We picked the dress up this evening and it is now PERFECT. I've used Cosmo for my (rather meager) dry cleaning needs over the years and have always been pleased with the service. This year I've had several formal wear occasions and post event cleaning was always well done. They also hemmed my own gown for the wedding and minimized the train on that dress as well. I think their rates are fair for the work involved. It's not easy finding good tailoring nowadays. I wouldn't trust anyone else.

Normally good but my last experience was unacceptable. I dropped off my husbands $500 suit on…read more11/6/23, that he has worn 3-4 times (which they have dry cleaned every time). A few days later my husband got several voicemails that were difficult to understand as it kept going in and out. I went in and they let me know they ripped my husbands pants while dry cleaning them, which they proceeded to blame on us, even though the suit is basically brand new, has only been dry cleaned by them AND they weren't ripped when we brought them in. The woman behind the counter who claimed to be the manager let me know to come back after Thanksgiving and that she would repair the pants at no cost and that I would not need to pay for the dry cleaning. Fair. Things happen, I will move forward. I returned today, 11/29/23 and it was a different woman behind the counter. I explained the situation and she said she would have to call her boss to confirm, totally fine. I could hear it was a man on the phone who I have never met before, she handed me the phone and he told me I had to pay. I explained everything again and he asked me to come back later so he can talk to me in person to better understand the situation and we could work something out. I told him I couldn't come back later and that I needed my suit back and should be honored what I was told. After I told him that, he "suddenly" remembered the situation and that I needed to pay even though I was told otherwise. We went back and forth and he just kept demanding I pay. I wanted to get out of there and knew I wouldn't be back. I paid for my overpriced dry cleaning ($27.15) and let him know I would just write a review. It's disappointing as they have been great in the past and are close to where I live. The ladies behind the counter are great but it was the hostile man on the phone that ruined the experience. Had they simply honored what they told me they would do, I would be coming back and not writing this review. SIDE NOTE: While looking at the pants there seem to be stains that 1) weren't there when we dropped them off 2) don't seem to have been treated. Incredibly frustrating. Stains & patched rip shown in pictures.
