Dependable Cleaners 65th Anniversary

Thank you to all of our customers who helped us celebrate our 65th anniversary by sharing their stories.

"I left a beautiful opal & gold pin on a jacket I dropped off for cleaning that my mother gave me years ago. A few days after I dropped off the jacket, my mother passed away. I thought I would never see it again, but when I picked up the jacket, the pin was in a little bag in the pocket. I was so impressed with the honesty of your staff."

"Most girls discover the magic of the dry cleaner when accompanying their parents to drop off shirts that need to be pressed, or slinky dresses that require special attention. I was not one of those privileged! My mother is adamant that 'Dry Clean Only' translates to 'Wash By Hand.' That is, until one day, when my white dress had an unfortunate run in with curry. My mom attempted to 'wash it by hand,' but the bleach used in the process led to its demise. So when I got a stain on my favorite new white silk ruffled shirt, I knew the place to take it would be Dependable Cleaners. Low and behold, the next day my shirt was ready and looked absolutely brand-spanking new. I couldn't even muster the proper magnitude of appreciation, but at least now I can say, "Thank you so much Dependable Cleaners!"

"I have fond memories of my little league team being sponsored by the Dependable Cleaners. We wore purple hats that had crossed bats and said "Dependable Cleaners" across the top. I recently moved back to the Boston area and the great memories I have of wearing that uniform as a kid played a huge role in picking my laundry service as an adult. I've been completely satisfied with the outstanding customer service and reliability Dependable Cleaners provides. It's great knowing I'm giving my business to a company that sponsors youth programs and gives back to the community."

I have 3 sons and I gave my eldest son my husband's flag given to us at his funeral by the Veteran's Association. I gave my other two sons flags with very special significance. One was my father's, the other was my father-in-law's...Both were World War I veterans. Your company cleaned them beautifully and now they'll be preserved forever. This is a wonderful community service. Thank you, Dependable."
