Glad Cleaners, Inc., an eco-friendly family owned and operated business, has been providing the highest quality dry cleaning, laundry, valet and tailoring services to the Chicago area since 1939.  Since inception, Glad Cleaners has maintained its own plant on the premises.  Your garments remain with us during the entire cleaning process.

 

DRY CLEANING

We work diligently to remove stains and odors from your garments.  Our experienced pressers make sure your garments look like new.

 

SHIRT LAUNDRY

Shirts are laundered and pressed by our staff of experts ensuring all buttons are intact, colors are bright, and whites are whiter.

 

WASH & FOLD (LAUNDRY, BED SHEETS & TOWELS)

Doing laundry at home can be a chore and take days to complete.  Drop off your unsorted, soiled laundry and bed sheets with us and pick it up clean and folded, ready to put away. $2.25 lb. (10lb minimum)

 

FINE LINENS & TABLECLOTHS 

Blankets and comforters too large to fit into your machine at home, we have the solution to that.  Tablecloths, table skirts and napkins are cleaned and pressed, ready for any occasion.


PILLOW CLEANING/RESTORATION

Is your favorite pillow in need of a deep cleaning or restoration to make it feel and smell like new again?  Each pillow is processed individually to ensure you receive your down, feathers or filler back.  This process costs about half of what you would pay for a replacement pillow. The process starts with removing the old down, feathers or other fillers.  Next the old ticking is discarded and the old down, feathers and fillers are cleaned utilizing ozone and ultra-violet light to remove any odors and sanitize your pillow.  Lastly, your down, feathers or fillers are blown into a brand new, white-on-white ticking.  If additional down, feathers or fillers are needed they can be added at this time.  Your old pillow will look new again!
