What Is 
Dry Cleaning?

Dry cleaning is a professional garment care process that removes stains and dirt from fabrics using a liquid solution instead of water. It's ideal for delicate materials like wool, silk, and suits that can be damaged by traditional washing. At Lapels, we exclusively use the GreenEarth® Cleaning system—a gentle, non-toxic silicone-based solution that's safer for your clothes, your skin, and the environment. Unlike conventional dry cleaning, there are no harsh chemicals or strong odors, just soft, clean garments returned looking their best.

Our Dry Cleaning Process

At Lapels, we make dry cleaning simple, efficient, and reliable. Every item you bring in goes through a careful, three-step process designed to protect your garments and deliver exceptional results.

1. Inspection & Tagging

Each garment is carefully inspected for stains, fabric type, and care requirements. We tag each item to ensure it's tracked, cleaned, and returned with care and accuracy.

2. Cleaning Process

During dry cleaning, clothes are placed in a special machine that uses a gentle cleaning solution instead of water. The solution circulates through the fabrics to lift away dirt and stains, while protecting delicate fibers from shrinking, stretching, or fading.

3. Finishing & Packaging

After cleaning, garments are steamed or pressed to restore their shape and appearance. Final quality checks are completed before items are carefully packaged and ready for pickup or delivery.

The Right Choice For
Your Professional Cleaner

Absolutely love Lapels Laundromat! The place is spotless, well-maintained, and has such a welcoming atmosphere. All of the machines are clean and work great, which makes doing laundry so much easier. Sharissa was especially amazing — so friendly, helpful, and kind from the moment I walked in. She went out of her way to answer questions and make sure everything was going smoothly. Customer service like that is hard to find these days! You can really tell they care about keeping the laundromat clean and making customers feel comfortable. Highly recommend Lapels to anyone looking for a clean, nice, and reliable laundromat with awesome staff!

I’ve lived in East Boston for five years and used to travel back to Cambridge for dry cleaning until Lapel’s opened. Their service is exceptional, quick turnaround, reasonable prices, and genuinely warm staff who remember your name and go out of their way to help. That kind of personal touch is rare these days, and it makes all the difference. Highly recommend!

Every time I go to Lapels I’m literally lost when it come to all the high tech equipment. Lucky for me every time I go Shari is working. She’s always super helpful and friendly and just simply chuckles off all the craziness and easy forgetfulness I bring. Beside that the laundromat itself is definitely the cleanest and most reliable around, every machine works as expected. High recommend lapels for get in and get out laundry days!
