Dry Cleaning FAQs

Did you know the dry cleaning services offered by Hometown Cleaners use hypoallergenic, biodegradable, organic solvents and detergents? Our redesigned systems also consume less energy and generate less waste. With more than six decades of experience in dry cleaning, we answer some of your frequently asked questions. 

Silks

Some people feel that silk items can be washed at home, but we suggest you check the care label for instructions first. Most will state the silk garment should be dry cleaned as this preserves the color. You can take it for dry cleaning after wearing the garment two to three times. 

Drapes and Curtains

How often should drapery cleaning and curtain cleaning be done? Every accommodation establishment providing services to the public has its standards, but to maintain fabric quality and longevity, drapes and curtains should be professionally dry cleaned. Hometown Cleaners offers a take-down, dry clean and re-hang service for homes and businesses.

Rugs and Carpets

An area rug or carpet should be dry-cleaned professionally at least once a year. Do rug cleaning more often when there are children or pets in the home, people with allergies or the rug carries a lot of foot traffic. Safety first, so use a rug pad underneath all loose rugs or carpets. 

Cocktail Gown

At Hometown Cleaners, we call them cocktail gowns, but every gown worn for a special occasion is appreciated by us. It is best to dry clean your cocktail gown after every use to preserve the quality of the delicate fabric, embellishments, or beading.

Cashmere

Cashmere is one of the most expensive natural fibers and known for its supreme softness, fluidity, lightness, and quality. To maintain its excellent character, you need to dry clean it only after wearing the cashmere item two to three times.
