Greenspin Cleaners

I brought a friend’s hat in to be cleaned after my pup had an accident on it and they shrank it! But that’s not the end of the story… Their staff tried several times to restore the hat to its proper size, and when they couldn’t, their manager, Peter, stepped in and ordered a brand new hat. These guys have my business for as long as I live nearby!

Always friendly and there service is top of the line.

Very good service and super convenient! Haven’t had any problems with them in the three years i’ve been going there. I am a repeat customer who loves the drive in at the side for parking and bringing my clothes to be cleaned.

Finally got a hold of the manager. It was difficult to determine a price since it was a tailored shirt. I didn’t get what I was looking for, but I could tell he was attempting to meet me halfway. I appreciated the effort and we managed to settle on an amount for a refund.
All of the other things I dropped off were returned without damage and I liked how they were cleaned. It was definitely an unpleasant experience arguing over a shirt that had been damaged, but the manager was reasonable. I realize accidents happens so I’m hoping that this was an isolated incident. I plan on returning.

Hate to do this but… after 2 – 3 great years with Greenspin, they destroyed my down comforter. Looks like they bleached it or something. We took it back to show them, with all the feathers flying out of it and gashes as if someone took a knife to it and were told that, «Sometimes when comforters get old, this happens.» No. And even if that’s true, who the hell folded it up and gave it back to us this way??? They deliberately packaged it in such a way as to obfuscate the damage they’d done. The comforter was in great shape before and is now unusable. They didn’t even refund us the money we spent «cleaning”/destroying it. I’m very disappointed, to put it mildly. We have to wait for the manager to call us with a verdict. I’m afraid that if his settlement isn’t good enough, we’ll have to take our business elsewhere. We’ve been very loyal and very complimentary but they ruined a $ 200+ down comforter and we’ve been quoted $ 250+ to fix it or $ 130 a patch from the company that makes it. I could buy a new one for less. At this point, they really need to show some contrition and some money to make this right. I’ll never trust them with my bedding again.

Love the Eco-​friendly feeling!
I really hate having to dry clean clothes. But unfortunately, I have to wear a suit every day at work and it’s absolutely not machine washable. And every now and then I fall in love with clothes that are dry-​clean only (even thought I try to avoid them). I’ve tried a few other places and found that Greenspin is the best. I’ve tried Davis Imperial and Barry Regent, and for my needs, Greenspin is just as good. Now I don’t own fur of anything ornate, so I can’t comment on those kinds of things.
I love that my clothes don’t smell like chemicals. My skin isn’t bothered like it has been from other cleaners, and the prices are reasonable. It’s not the cheapest, but absolutely worth it to me. The barcode system is also great. However if you don’t want them to tag your clothes, you can also request for them not to.
The drive thru is awesome! I love not having to worry about weather when I want to pick up my clothes. Service is always friendly and nice. I get a gift every year around the holidays.
I’ve also used the tailor here. It’s serviceable. I would say if it’s something easy like a pant hem then do it. For anything else, go to an actual tailor. Their prices are comparable to tailors in the city but they just don’t have the expertise for complex alterations here.
Go Greenspin for eco-​friendly dry-​cleaning!

I’m so torn on this place. I love the eco-​friendly methods they use, their location, and how nice and clean they keep the premises and I’ve generally found their service to be good… but their prices are high and we had one VERY bad experience that makes we question whether or not we’ll ever go back.
We have a cheap comforter for our guest room that needs to be washed in a double washer. It shouldn’t ever be dry cleaned because it was only about $ 40 to buy the thing. I was going to take it to the laundromat, but my husband was going to Greenspin, so he said he’d inquire if they’d wash it. He dropped it off and he made it very clear that he only wanted it washed, not dry cleaned. They said no problem and off he went. I went to pick it up, and it was $ 40!!! $ 40 to WASH NOT DRY CLEAN this el cheapo comforter. I figured it was a misunderstanding and went to meet him at Menards. He was taken aback that no one mentioned to him that they charge that price for washing OR dry cleaning. When we inquired, they informed us that they charge based on «weight and the amount of folding that must be done.» Now I’ve folded many comforters, and I don’t know that it warrants jacking up the price 10X. I understand if it is a high-​quality comforter that must be dry cleaned… but it’s not. They threw it in a washer and dryer using no more advanced technology than at the local laundromat, then folded it, and thought it was appropriate to charge us $ 40 for it. That’s NOT okay. I get that they charge a premium for their dry cleaning services and I take no exception to that… but $ 40 for laundering one item, is exorbitant.
I know my husband will never go back, that’s for sure. I guess I’ll just have to find another place to take the dry cleaning. Anyone else know of another eco-​friendly cleaner?

I love the fact they have a drive-​thru. It makes picking up more convenience. Their alteration prices is ridiculously high. I’ve had some of my boyfriend expensive shirts clean, he said there’s still dirty spots. Recently, I’ve been pretty disappointed in their services. I’ll probably never return.

So this is only for the tailoring side of the company. I picked up my wedding dress today. This has been a horrible experience. Seamstresswas asked to keep any remnants from the dress so I could make it part of my Vail and bouquet. I only plan on getting married once, so this is very special to me. The remnants are also very key to my wedding wear. The hemming of the dress took days longer than I was told. I went in for a last fitting and was told to come back in 6 days. I did. I’m not sure why I was told to do this since the wedding dress hadn’t been touched since I left it the week before. The same pins were in it, in the same places on the same place in her clothing rack. I was asked to come by in two days to pick the dress up and was promised it would be ready. Mind you, I’m getting married the next day.
When I picked up the dress it was done, but no remnants for my Vail and bouquet. This is expensive material that I can just pick up at Joanne fabrics.
When the owner was made aware if the seamstresses huge error, she did nothing while the seamstress just smiled. I will not be back here. Think twice before you go to this seamstress or use this business. They didn’t even try to apologize or make amends for this mistake. You have ruined a part of my wedding!

Moved to the neighborhood recently and just started using Greenspin Cleaners. Been back and forth a couple of times already and have been really impressed. Shirts are pressed to perfection and pricing is extremely reasonable. They take cash or credit and there is a parking lot right next to the location.

Been using this cleaners for about 10 years (started way back when they were Continental Cleaners and they weren’t spinning anything green!).
Always plenty of staff to assist you and they are always friendly and helpful.
They have never lost an item of clothing. At least, not that I know of :) Actually would be hard to do since they put a bar code sticker on each item and scan it at drop off and pick up.
Love the covered drive through parking area; great for avoiding the elements while picking up and dropping off.

I’m very happy with this cleaner. They don’t use PERC which is wonderful and the clothes are done in a green manner. For men’s dress shirts you may have to request a heavier starch but it’s still an equally as good as the other places in terms of finished product and quality.

Love this cleaner! Friendly, fast service. I have very sensitive skin and haven’t had any issues with taking my clothes here. My clothes seem cleaner and brighter than they did when I went to a traditional dry cleaner. They have a drive-​through garage for easy drop off and pick-​up. Good pricing too.
They also place stickers on your clothing labels and they scan them each time you bring in an item. It automatically pulls up your account information and keeps track of your items. How efficient and organized is that?

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!! My wedding dress maker stained my dress on Thursday July 3^rd!!! Nothing was going to be open on the 4^th so I was freaking out since my wedding is in a week… in Dominican Republic in which we are flying out for on Monday bright and early! I needed a super quick fix and luckily I was referred to Green spin and they made my dress look brand new, even better than how I had seen it in my fittings! Best part was that I took it in first thing on Saturday and I got it back right before they closed! I am so forever grateful!

We’ve been using this dry cleaner for probably 10 years. Great family-​run business.
They are friendly and our clothes are always done on time.
I bring my pants, jeans and anything else that I need altered here and they do a great job.
I love that they have a covered drive-​thru parking area. Great for picking up/​dropping off in the rain without getting wet!

Indoor parking is super convenient. The cleaning is good and green, which is great. Prices don’t break the bank, given it is Chicago and the extra perks they provide. And the tailoring is good and they will do a rush for you if you need it. All in all it can’t get much better!

A cleaner that doesn’t use cancer causing chemicals that are banned in other countries? HUGE plus! Very reasonable prices? Can’t go wrong there. Need cleaning done quickly in a bind? These guys are great! If you get dry cleaning done, these are the people to take care of it!

In short: great location, speedy service, friendly staff and bottom line you get CLEAN clothing that are pressed well!

Expensive, yet luxurious and earth-​concious. This is the yoga mom drycleaners of Roscoe Village.
Why?
Well, a few reasons. It’s absolutely gleaming on the inside. They are «eco-​friendly» and employ green methods. They are friendly and highly computerized with their systems and accounting. They have a pull-​in parking lot (just south of the building) as street parking around here can be a bit hit or miss.
Oh, and its across the street from Costco. Ding, ding, ding.
A bit on the pricey side, but as you can see… you get what you pay for. Namaste, fresh pressed shirts!

I decided to write this review after I cheated on Greenspin trying to save a few bucks and had a horrible experience — lesson learned. Greenspin is my go to cleaners especially if I need something lickety split! Drop it off in the morning, pick it up by 5pm. Their prices are reasonable and my clothes:
1. don’t stink like chemicals
2. don’t stink like yukky mold
3. aren’t shrunk 1 or 2 sizes
Also, from time to time, when shopping at the Dominick’s on Clybourn/​Fullerton I’ve been lucky and received a coupon for Greenspin on the back on my receipt — BONUS!
Staff is always friendly, and I also appreciate that they take credit/​debit cards — as there are several dry cleaners that for some reason don’t accept them. I can’t comment on their alterations since I’ve not used their services, but if I ever need something altered, I will certainly give them a try!
