How Dry Cleaning Can Actually Save You Money

If you don’t clean your clothing often enough, or remove stains quick enough, your clothes could start looking permanently tatty. It’s the same as not cleaning your car or your home regularly enough; the longer you leave it, the harder it gets to bring it back to its original state. It’s far cheaper to invest in dry cleaning your clothes than it is to go out and replace your favourite, most valuable items.

People are sometimes reluctant to take their clothes to the dry cleaners, solely because it’s slightly costlier than a standard laundry. But with dry cleaning, what you pay for is what you get – meaning you’ll quickly find that it’s worth every cent. Aside from doing an amazing job on your batch of clothes, dry cleaners can, in many cases, save you money. How? Let’s discuss.

Extends the life of your clothes

Dry cleaning extends the life of your clothes, which is particularly important if we’re handling cherished or valuable garments. If you don’t clean your clothing often enough, or remove stains quick enough, your clothes could start looking permanently tatty. It’s the same as not cleaning your car or your home regularly enough; the longer you leave it, the harder it gets to bring it back to its original state. It’s far cheaper to invest in dry cleaning your clothes than it is to go out and replace your favourite, most valuable items.

Saves delicate pieces from being ruined

Delicate pieces are often ruined in the conventional washing machine. Materials like silk, suede, leather and wool are often not suited to a standard washing machine and dryer, and need to be dry-cleaned instead. Don’t risk ruining these delicate, expensive materials by trying to wash them in the laundry – save yourself time, money and stress by bringing them to a top quality dry cleaner!

Saves you attempting home remedies on stains

You can read up on a thousand ‘home remedies’ for stains – and yet, none of them work. There’s a science behind this: some stains are water-soluble, meaning they’re able to be removed by water and detergent, and others are solvent-soluble which can only be removed by specialised solvents. ‘Home remedies’ often force you to go to the shops, by a couple of different products and mix them together. These can either A) not work or B) even worse, exacerbate the existing stain. Why waste more money on trying to get a B-grade result, when you can save money by taking it straight to a dry cleaner?

Great deals for more items

Often, the more items you have to dry clean, the bigger discount you can get. Dry cleaners often have different deals on the number of shirts, jackets, pants or coats you bring in as a way to make it more worthwhile for you.
