Eco Cleaners

$ 15.75 to dry clean 3 skirts. $ 22 for a blazer, skirt and 2 pairs of pants.
After a year and a half of trying different dry cleaners in North Arlington, I will say that Eco Cleaners is my go-​to.
It’s not the cheapest place, and service isn’t as immediate as other cleaners (I’ve always had to wait at least 2 days for pickup) but the price is well worth the environmentally friendly products they use to clean the clothes.
Also, the woman who works the register most nights is really nice!

I have been taking my clothes here for dry cleaning for years and have always had great service and no issues with any of my clothing– I have even had alterations done on dresses, skirts, and pants, as well as had my wedding dress preserved here and have always been very pleased with the results.

My clothes didn’t smell [like chemicals]! Why? Because they smelled like sweat. They smelled like sweat because they weren’t cleaned.
I sent in 12 items. 3 dresses, 2 pants, 1 blazer, 6 blouses. For $ 75 worth of dry cleaning ($ 5 was the cost of a single blouse), I returned home with 12 articles of clothing that were worn threadbare, 1 blouse that was ripped, 1 that had white powder on it, 1 that wasn’t cleaned, and 5 that still had stains.
The price was outrageous, the quality of work was unacceptable. The positive reviews on this site falsely led me to believe this was a decent establishment. Don’t be fooled like I was and save your $ 75 for some new clothes instead of tossing it into this dump of a place. Thanks, Arlington Eco «Cleaners».

I’ve found my new place. The parking here isn’t that bad, people are always coming but also going so a space opens up if there isn’t already one.
Everyone is right; NO SMELL! And all the peanut butter cup stains were gone! Very pleased and I’ll be coming back.

The people here are so nice! The prices seem fair and a little lower than what you’ll find right by the metro in Arlington. Their service is fast, and they use organic methods, so they win my vote. They also offer minor alteration and sewing services for a fair price. My only complaint is the tiny parking lot, which always seems full when I go there. Credit cards permitted only for purchases over $ 10.

My clothes don’t smell!
I’ve been getting my clothes dry cleaned for awhile now and I’m not embarrassed to say that I typically look for the lowest cost per shirt that I can find. What I started noticing however is that I was dreading getting my clothes back because of the heavy stink and odor of chemicals that lingered. This was especially apparent when I would put the clothes on. So began my search for a place that used environmentally friendly chemicals. After a quick search on here I found Eco Cleaners. Only a few reviews but generally positive.
My impressions so far? Great! The staff are super friendly and the first time I got my clothes back, I took a big sniff, and Nothing! I will be back! Prices are reasonable (though I’m a guy and somehow thing that the opinion may change for members of the opposite sex…)
Couple of other notes, Eco Cleaners is located in kind of a random spot next to a 7 – 11. Nice thing is that Starbucks is across the street making the morning dry cleaning trip even more productive. One thing I noticed from the reviews (for this place as well as others) was that clothes were generally not as clean as some people wanted. As with any other cleaning agent, I generally believe that the worse they are for you and the environment, the better they are at cleaning. Thus if you have something with bad stains, suck it up and go to a regular dry cleaner. For you normal items, I think you are going to love this place!

Best dry cleaners ever and the seamstress there is AMAZING! I had a dress taken in for a wedding. Little did I know that there were no seams and she would have to take out the back zipper to take in the dress. I wasn’t able to pick up the dress until the day of the wedding. I was a little nervous since I didn’t have time to try it on prior but the dress fit perfectly. I had so many compliments at the wedding I attended. I’ve since brought more gowns and work pants to her. I totally recommend the seamstress there.

This post is dedicated to my friend, «M», whose mother is terminally ill with cancer.
Her mother’s illness is connected to exposure to perchloroethylene, a volatile organic compound, which was used by the dry cleaner that she was formerly employed with.
I originally dropped my clothes off out of convenience, but it’s been an educational journey since that time.
The owner is a lovely; the moment I walked in, I felt like she was an old friend. I really expected the clothes to be more expensive. For 10 men’s shirts dropped off on late Saturday, I paid $ 17.50 on Wednesday morning. No chemicals, no fuss and my shirts were retrieved with a warm smile.
Here’s a little 411 I’ve picked up since last Saturday:
85% of dry cleaners use this volatile chemical, «Perch», which is a probable carcinogen linked to liver and kidney damage from prolonged contact. Contact with this chemical can cause the following symptoms:
Headaches
Drowsiness
Nausea
Skin/​Respiratory Irritation
Who’s at risk?
Dry cleaning employees
The consumer
Nursing mothers and their babies
Technically anyone can come into contact with this chemical because the air, water and soil can become contaminated when dry cleaners go through their disposal process.
It’s good to know that we have options when it comes to these sorts of things.
Dress well. Be Well.

This is a great establishment that provides thorough work and excellent customer service. I took in a stained silk blouse that was diagnosed to be uncleanable by my usual dry cleaner in Merrifield, and Eco Cleaners was able to render it completely clean like brand-​new. I also took in a vintage Diane von Furstenburg silk dress, and they ran the dress through the dry-​clean twice because they found a small stain that appeared after the first wash. Another huge plus — prices were extremely reasonable (cheaper than other area dry cleaners in Fairfax/​Vienna). Definitely coming back to them again for next time.
