How it goes

Four things that decide whether you get your clothes back right.

None of it is complicated. It is just done by the people who own the place, which turns out to be the whole difference.

01

The counter

You hand your clothes to an owner. Not a drop box, not a counter temp who has never seen the garment before. Our customers keep writing that we remember them by name, and that is because the same people are standing here every day.

02

The inspection

We look at the garment while you are still holding it. A seam that is going, a hem that has dropped, a strap about to let go. You hear about it at the counter, before it goes anywhere, so you can decide what you want done.

03

The turnaround

Tell us when you need it. We do next day when we can do next day, and we tell you straight when we cannot, which is the only version of that promise worth anything to you.

04

The finish

Pressed, on a hanger, under clear poly with a shoulder cap so the collar and the shoulders survive the drive home. It should look better going out than it did coming in. That is the only test we care about.

What we take in

Bring it to the counter and we will price it in front of you.

Every garment is different, so every price is different. Call and tell us what you have. Chicago Consumers’ Checkbook priced 118 cleaners around here and put ours about fifteen percent under the average.

Who is behind the counter

The word our reviews keep using is “owners.”

Not the staff, not the front desk. Over and over, the same three things: the owners are here, they know your name, and they do the work themselves. Nothing about that is a strategy. It is just how a family shop runs.

Questions

The things people call and ask.

Where is Glenwood Cleaners in Glenview?

3234 Glenview Road, Glenview, IL 60025, on Glenview Road just east of Greenwood Road. Look for the red lettering above the dark awning. Customer parking is right in front. Call (847) 724-5414.

What time do you open?

Seven in the morning, Monday through Saturday. We close at five. Sunday we are closed.

Do you do alterations and repairs, or only dry cleaning?

It sounds like you have something you would rather fix than replace. Both, then. Alterations, tailoring, clothing repairs and bag straps come across this counter every week. Bring the garment in and wear it if the fit is the issue, so we can see it on you rather than guess.

Can I get something back the next day?

You have probably been told “tomorrow” somewhere that turned out to mean Thursday. Often we can, and here is how we handle it: tell us at the counter when you need it and we will tell you on the spot whether we can hit that date. We would rather say no than miss it.

How much does dry cleaning cost here?

You have probably been quoted one number at a counter and handed a different one at pickup. So: call us with the item and we will price it before it leaves your hands. Prices vary by garment, which is why we will not print a number we might not be able to honor for your particular coat. For what it is worth, Chicago Consumers’ Checkbook priced 118 cleaners in this area and put ours roughly fifteen percent below the average.

My coat has gone pilly and dull. Is it worth cleaning or should I just replace it?

A lot of people feel like a coat that looks tired is finished. Most have felt the same before they asked. What they have found is that it is worth ten minutes at the counter before spending the money on a new one. Bring it in and let us look at it with you. We will tell you plainly what we can and cannot do with it.

Do I need an appointment?

No. Walk in any time we are open. There is no app to download and no account to set up.

Do you take cards?

Visa and Mastercard, at the counter.

Is the shop accessible?

Yes. The entrance is step-free and wheelchair accessible, and there is accessible parking directly in front.

Bring us the thing you have been avoiding.

The wool coat that pilled. The suit still in the bag from last winter. The strap that came off the bag you actually like. Twenty-one people gave us five stars for exactly this kind of work.

Would it be unreasonable to call and ask what it would take?
