A New Level of Eco-Friendly Dry Cleaning in Erie, PA

Why choose Thrifty? You’ll see the difference

What sets us apart from other cleaners? At Thrifty, we use two different dry cleaning processes. Both have a very low environmental impact and produce no hazardous waste. We have used DF2000 for many years and continue to use it, especially on delicate items. Recently we have had added a process using a new biodegradable solvent called K-4. K-4 is more aggressive than DF2000 so it can help to remove the toughest stains but is still environmentally safe, thus maintaining our goal of being safer for your clothes, safer for your environment, and most of all safer for you.

    Most other dry cleaners in the area use Perchlorethylene (PERK). PERK is scheduled to be banned in some states because it is believed to cause cancer. The “PERK” dry cleaning process also produces hazardous waste. No dry cleaner in the area uses a dry cleaning system that is as gentle on your clothes as our DF2000 system.

     

    We individually inspect and finish each item perfectly. We process our own shirts and replace any lost or broken buttons free of charge. Your shirts are returned bright and crisp. We also feature “gender-friendly” pricing, with men’s and women’s garments priced comparably.

     

    We visit dry cleaning plants all over the country to keep updated with improved cleaning techniques. Using the most current technologies and equipment to clean your clothes has made us a world class dry-cleaning company. We take pride in our work and the exclusive services we can offer our customers.

    With our emphasis on quality cleaning and convenience, trust your garments to us for that “like new” look. Please visit us for all your dry-cleaning needs.
