Capture a Share of the $10 Billion Dry Cleaning Industry Without Being a Dry Cleaner!

The consumer wants convenience.
The industry is not providing it.
1-800-DryClean delivers the solution!

Have you noticed that "do it yourself" has given way to "hire it done?" With more and more two-income households, people have less time to take care of little necessities, like dropping off and picking up the dry cleaning.

That's where you come in. You provide a needed service for hard-working, career minded, busy families and it costs no more than going to the store. Families will appreciate the convenience, quality, care and professionalism provided by you, their 1-800-DryClean franchise owner.

1-800-DryClean offers convenient dry cleaning and laundry pick-up and delivery service to busy people at their home or office. The business strategy builds upon acquiring repeat customers and providing consistent, high quality dry cleaning and laundry with the convenience of prompt, dependable, "at-your-door" service. Most customers receive regularly scheduled bi-weekly service. A unique micro-marketing approach builds the residential customer base. The franchise opportunity is focused on a candidate seeking a low-cost home-based service franchise with a substantial, repeat customer base. We have single-van and two-van opportunities available. As a member company of Service Brands International, 1-800-DryClean benefits from over 25 years of SBI's experience in building business franchise systems.
