What Our Customers Are Saying: Genuine Reviews of Sterling Cleaners
Tony I

It's a fully automated laundry service via a kiosk located in an office building. Once you set up on your phone and figure out the process, it is extremely convenient because availability for pick-up and drop-off are whenever you have access to your building.
Provider responded to my questions via email or text, so communication was very good even though the service is kiosk-based.
The quality of the dry-cleaning on my initial (and only, so far) order was very good. My order was standard dry-cleaning on three business suits. There were no problems with the work.
The timing to complete the cleaning also was very good: promised in 72 hours while delivered in 48 hours.
The pricing was lower than competitors, which was nice. So the in-building convenience, lower price and good service (quality/timeliness) make this an option worth trying. I only hesitate on full endorsement because I have used the service once so far.

Very efficient dry clean/ wash-fold service. Dropped off item on my way into office (took seconds) and I immediately had a response message with expected delivery time. When ready, pick up was a breeze (on my way out of office). I had taken a delicate knitted jacked and Imperial actually did a really good cleaning of the garment and maintained the garments color and integrity. Will continue using.

Paul the cobbler has done a fantastic job with every shoe I’ve brought to him (sandals, heels, flats and boots) for an incredibly fair price. Not only were the repairs expertly done, he also shined the shoes and made them look nearly new (without me asking or any upcharge). Excellent service.
