At Kerby's, we understand that not all clothes are made equal, and neither are the ways they should be cleaned. Whether dropping off a delicate silk blouse or a basket of everyday laundry, knowing the difference between Dry Cleaning and regular Laundry is essential so your garments get the care they need.
What is Regular Laundry?
Regular Laundry uses water and detergent to clean clothes. This method is for everyday items, like T-shirts, jeans, socks, underwear, and bath towels. At Kerby's, we carefully handle your laundry, using high-quality detergents, sanitized machines, and our premium wash-and-fold service to give your clothes a fresh, soft finish.
What is Dry Cleaning?
Dry Cleaning uses a special cleaning solvent instead of water to REMOVE STAINS and PRESEVE fabric QUALITY. This is ideal for delicate fabrics and structured garments that may shrink, warp, or bleed color in a traditional wash.
At Kerby's, our expert team specializes in cleaning high-end items, including silk, leather, fur, suede, wedding gowns, formalwear, and designer wear. We inspect, treat, clean, and then hand-press every item precisely so you always get that crisp, like-new finish.
