5 Reasons to Switch to Eco-Friendly Dry Cleaning
Dry cleaning has a reputation for being tough on stains but it’s also been tough on the environment. Traditional methods often use harsh chemicals like PERC (perchloroethylene), which can be harmful to people, clothing, and the planet. Thankfully, there’s a better way.
At Twin Cities Dry Cleaners, we’re proud to offer eco-friendly dry cleaning at all three of our locations: Elite Cleaners in South Minneapolis, St. Anthony Cleaners, and Grand Dry Cleaners in Roseville. Here’s why more people are making the switch.
1. It’s Safer for You and Your Family
Eco-friendly cleaning solutions are non-toxic, biodegradable, and free from harsh chemical fumes. That means no lingering odors or residue on your clothes and no exposure to solvents that have been linked to health risks.
2. It’s Better for the Environment
Our cleaning process uses gentler, plant-based solvents that break down naturally. We also use high-efficiency machines and recycle whenever possible, reducing both energy use and waste output.
3. It’s Gentler on Your Clothes
The solvents we use don’t weaken fabric fibers or cause yellowing over time. Your clothes last longer, look better, and hold their shape, whether it’s a wool coat, a silk dress, or your favorite button-down.
4. It Smells (and Feels) Cleaner
No more harsh chemical smell. Eco-cleaned garments come back feeling fresh, soft, and truly clean — not just masked with fragrance or starch.
5. You’re Supporting a Smarter, Local Alternative
By choosing a local dry cleaner committed to sustainability, you’re helping build a cleaner Twin Cities. Each of our locations is independently operated by teams who care deeply about quality service, community trust, and responsible practices.
