Avalon Cleaners

I’ve visited a few dry cleaners in the area, and I stuck with this one for awhile till I could find another one in my area that was about the same price and did an all right job.
This place is pretty well priced, about 2 dollars per item. I even had a jacket done for 2 bucks, though I’m not sure if that was a mistake on their part.
However, this is not the best dry cleaner when it comes to details. I’ve had multiple shirts brought in for dry cleaning. Every time, the shirt comes back clean but i feel as if the ironing job was done by a complete amateur. The shirt looks like it was laid flat and then just pressed with a humongous iron. With modern shirts, there are curves built into the shirt and the ironing here tends to not account for this.
I like this place because it’s cheap, but I’ve also found a better dry cleaner up north, a ten minute drive. The new place is slightly more pricey, but in my opinion, the pressing of the shirt is done so much better.

This place sucks… i brought four shirts to get dry cleaned. They could not get any of the stains out. i made four separate trips back for re dos, still no good. They come back wrinkly and they do not check to see if stains are out so be sure to check before you leave. First time returning I found a slight burn mark on a Lacoste polo and new stains on an express button down. They also seem to have difficulty finding your clothes on their racks as well… I noticed another customer had the same issue with stains while i was there to pick up… By my fourth trip they were able to get the stains/​burn marks out but the original stains were still there. They refunded me with cash.
Bottom line go somewhere else.

We travelled all the way from the UK for a friend’s wedding taking place in the Valley. There is only so much you can do to carefully pack a suit. However, very little guarantees can be made when you spend over 20 hours travelling that the suit won’t be crushed in transit.
Upon arriving in Phoenix, we had less than 24 hours to find a reliable dry cleaner in the East Valley that could clean and press a suit before the wedding. Avalon Cleaners was in the area that provided same-​day service; in by 9am and out by 5pm. They cleaned and pressed my partner’s Hugo Boss suit in a pristine manner. For a fraction of what you pay in the UK for dry cleaning, speedy service and quality, there’s nothing but praises from this expat and her Scotsman!

Great prices and great staff. I was running late and dropped off a dress to be dry cleaned crossing my fingers I’d be able to make it for the ‘In by 9am, out by 5pm’ window. I was a few minutes late and the gal at the counter wasn’t sure if it would be done the same day, but she said she’d call me to let me know.
Sure enough, an hour and a half later, I received a call letting me know they would be able to do it. Great customer service!

I still go here and I still love them. Manny is the best in customer service!

Update: One of my husband’s favorite dress shirts shrank after taking it to Avalon. It is now too small for him and we will likely donate it. Not happy with this cleaner.

I’ve been to Avalon several times and this last time they lost all credibility with me. My husband dropped off 2 dresses and picked up one dress, blouse and slacks. The dress had a white chemical residue on it and the blouse had the same spots it did before. Because these last 2 items were done so poorly we called at 7 am to cancel the dry cleaning on the latest 2 dresses and even though an employee said they would not touch them they did anyway! And guess what, one dress had a brand new stain on it that wasn’t there before!!! I was so pissed, you don’t take crappy clothes that you don’t care about to dry cleaning, these are articles of clothing that I really cared about. The manager Kaleb gave me my $ back but that was given seeing how as he ruined my clothes. Dry cleaners are a dime a dozen, no need to settle for poor work. Business lost Avalon.

Awesome prices. Speedy service. Nice staff… HOWEVER… When I dropped off our clothes for dry cleaning, I pointed out a couple of stains on different articles of clothing. Most dry cleaners I have been too will usually mark the stains, but the guy said he ‘would remember’. Well, he didn’t. The good thing is they cleaned the two items of clothing again, free of charge. They came out good the second time around.
This is definitely a good dry cleaners, but I next time I hope I don’t have to come back twice during the week to pick up my clothes…

Good service, good prices, and they come through. I’ve had several dry cleaners who have lost shirts. Avalon is very good with noting the laundry service, getting the name and phone number and actually counting the garments you bring in. It’s a pay first place, charge for debit, but best in the area.

Love it!
The staff is always so welcoming and friendly. All of my items were cleaned and hung perfectly.
You cannot beat the price!
They offer first time customers their first four items free and Wednesdays you get $.25 off each item. If you follow them on FB they post even more dicounts!
Payment is taken when you drop your items off and I suggest paying cash to avoid the$.50 credit surcharge.
This company is very involved in the community and I will always support that!

Procrastinator that I am, I waited until the day before an important interview to get my suit dry cleaned. After calling all of the local dry cleaners, I found that Avalon was the only cleaners that would ensure my suit to be ready by 9am the next morning (I was dropping it off around 1−2pm). They put a «special request» sign on it, at no extra cost, and sure enough they were steaming it when I got there the next morning and it was ready to go!
Based on this one experience, Avalon seems to be very accommodating and they have terrific prices — $ 2.25 per item. I’ll definitely be going back. Also, they are located on the north EAST corner of Ray and Rural, not NW like the previous review states. It’s sort of hard to find, since it says «$ 2.25 cleaner» in big letters, and I was looking for Avalon Cleaners instead.

Dry Cleaning here is great. They do an excellent job, and only charge $ 2.25 an item. Plus, if you have your stuff in by 9 am on any day, its done by 4! Sometimes, I get coupons in the mail for $ 1.75 on any item, any amount, and they honor it no matter how many items you have. This cleaners is located in the shopping complex at Ray and Rural roads, across the street from Frys, on the NW corner. They are open until 7 PM every day, but closed on Sundays.

Update: I still frequent this dry cleaners, but they have raised thier prices to $ 2.25. (that’s a 25 cent increase.) They still send out coupons for $ 2 an item, and I suggest you use them, especially if you bring in multiple items. Those quarters sure do add up!
Also, when looking for the cleaners, please make sure to look for «2.25 cleaners.» Easy to see from the road, and I believe that they do have multiple locations throughout the valley.
