Excellent place for laundry, dry cleaning and more. I had to get some alterations done plus cleaning. Everything was done well and right on time. They had the cost and time estimate right up front. Great service. Pay cash to avoid a 3% processing fee. Inflation and rising costs are affecting everyone. read more

For many years many locals as myself have reported that A-1 Cleaners of Burlingame is truly the best for laundry service , dry cleaners and alterations and the owners and staff so friendly yet very professional. Upon my recent visit, I noticed up on their wall ,four new certificates and awards . All so very impressive and truly confirm what many have been stating about our local cleaners: The California State Senate Award A-1 Cleaners The Best Dry Cleaners. The California State Assembly A-1 Cleaners, Best Dry Cleaners of San Mateo County. Board of supervisors of San Mateo A-1 Cleaners Best Dry Cleaners of San Mateo County. San Mateo Chamber of Commerce A-1 Cleaners Recognised for Excellence. I can honestly say owners Danish and Helen truly earned and deserve these accolades! read more

The owners and staff are extremely helpful. Came in to get my pants altered. The owner helped measure it out for me and suggested a few more inches up, and she was correct. Pants were ready in a week's time. 5 stars. read more

The manager of this place is very rude! I took my husband's work shirt for laundry and it's hit and miss. They were very inconsistent with the cuffs. It's not iron properly. I gently pointed out to the manager who is a male or maybe he is the owner. He told me that since my husband shirts are expensive I should do special care which double the price. I agreed! But when I picked up the shirt I pointed out to him that the cuff still look shitty. And his response was there's nothing I can do and blaming the fabric giving all these stupid excuses. Then he told me to go someplace else. Instead of being apologetic. He was very sarcastic and defensive. You need to improve your customer service! read more

Having service over w years, top notch customer service with affordable price Highly recommended read more

A-1 Cleaners - Laundry Services Near Me - Burlingame, California

Fast and precise! Here on business for a couple weeks and I needed a good wash and fold service. A-1 is it! When I called they promised next day service, when I arrived, they offered same day, wonderful. Everything came back perfectly folded and all socks paired with their sibling. An extra star for them as they noticed I had accidentally included a pair of dress pants that were dry-clean only and they held them aside. I'll be using them every month I am here for work! read more

A big shout out to the couple of folks who went out of their way to call and wait for us after closing yesterday, since we forgot to pick up my shirt and tie for a wedding reception today and had mentioned that we needed them by yesterday without saying why. Sensing that perhaps they're for some important event, they called me past closing as I forgot that they close at 5pm on Saturday instead of 6pm during weekdays. I've always found A-1 to be a friendly, skilled, and reliable dry cleaner (dry cleaned my wife's wedding dress to look like new years after the wedding and for a very reasonable price), their excellent service takes them beyond five stars! read more

Giving a #ServiceStarShoutOut to A-1 Cleaners! A good Dry Cleaners is hard to find so I'm happy to have found one in my new neighborhood. Looking forward to trying their tailoring services too. read more

They do not take responsibility for their services and will blame you if they mess something up. After reading other reviews this seems to be consistent as you can literally see the business owner responding to bad reviews defensively and pointing the finger instead of taking responsibility. Horrible customer service. Helen is also incredibly rude. read more

I had a bad experience here, I asked them for alternation, and they said the lady who does it is not here every day, so I asked them to talk to her and give me an estimate, and next they call me and tell me its ready, and her is the $$ amount, I am sorry but I wasn't asking you to finish the job and tell me here is the price, there is a language barriers for sure. And then when I picked up my cloths, I went with my 2 years old daughter who wears prescription glasses, the owner sees here and points to her with his finger and goes hahaha, what is so funny? You have never seen any kid with prescription glasses? Never going back here, not to mention their prices aren't cheapest around the neighborhood. read more

This is an amazing business! The staff are so friendly and they make my day whenever I stop in to drop off or to pick up. I am impressed with the quality of care that my garments receive, especially with the packaging of the cleaned products. It's like opening a beautiful gift, when I open the bag of my clean sweaters! :) read more

Great customer service, they are always very personable and know their clients by name! Items are always ready on time.

I brought my linen comforter set. I asked them if they press it and expressed my concern about it shrinking (assuming that it wouldn't because it's a dry cleaner) but this is why I don't do it myself at home. It's nice linen I have the right as a customer to be concerned. Helen's response: "we don't take ANY responsibility for shrinking it. If you say it shrunk that's because you shrunk it at home and now you're bringing it here to blame it on us. If you don't trust us we won't do it" Of course I don't trust you if you don't take responsibility for your work. Huge red flag and I will never go back. Before that I had been bringing my white lab coats mainly because I want them pressed. For months they charged me the standard rate then all of a sudden then Helen (my first encounter with her in the past 6 months) starts trying to up charge me for stain removal of tinted sunscreen that is on the collar every time I bring it in. It comes out easily and is not a "stain". I felt like she was just trying to take advantage and rip me off. I didn't leave a review then because I felt it was just a one off experience, but it has been two poor experiences in a row with the same lady who is apparently the owner. I don't know what happened to the other employees that were much more professional. read more

Best wash and fold service around. They have always taken excellent care of my dry cleaning, too.

This is my go to for anything I need sewn on my clothes. The ladies are Gerry sweet always and good prices. Hours are helpful too I'll share my last photo of what I asked for I brought the bra and the lace and only $15 was charged for this :) read more

A-1 Cleaners - Brotes bridal lace on my strapless cosabella bra. Flirty & séxy now - Laundry Services Near Me - Burlingame, California

Great service all around! A-1's entire team is always happy and kind to all of their customers. I've never had a bad experience, and I've been using them for all of my dry cleaning for over 2 years. If you point out stains or if your garment has a strong perfume smell, they do their best to fix it without an additional charge. Their billing system is a bit outdated (they track your order with pink slips, but if you misplace yours they can still look it up), but they never seem to mind when I've forgotten to pick up my clothes in the past - they have plenty of storage space, it seems. Love them all, will be a customer for as long as they are open for business. read more

Update,, Mitigation... I just received a gracious phone call from Helen..." old school.." She apologized..offered me a full refund. I did not want a full refund. The original quote price for the repair work of $8. is reasonable in my thinking and I had agreed to it.. (With inflation and costs riding most places..now a good price!) I will stop back by ..get credit on nominal refund. I will chat with wonderful Helen in person. She is great. Moving on... Edwin read more

best cleaner i've ever been to. dropped off a massive load of supreme, off white, bape - some with staining to be dry cleaned. they were not only able to get the stains out but completed the wash ahead of schedule. this place is the best and I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

These guys do a great job. We went in a brought my husband's suite for a dry clean. We typically go to Palo Alto to get it done, but we live closer to this location now. Glad we found an affordable option that does a good job. I will bring some of my clothes in soon to get dry cleaned as well. As long as the clothes haven't shrunk and the pant press is in the middle, I'm a happy camper. Not overpriced. read more

They are the best cleaners in Burlingame. Shirts always come out neat, ironed, cleaned, spotless. If you have stains, give them a try before you try to clean it and you will be happy. I am a customer since 2016. I drive and drop off my shirts, sweaters, monthly(bi-weekly before covid)from San Francisco! Yes, because they do a great job and worth to save my clothes. read more

Service is reliable, consistent, and fast. The employees there are friendly and helpful. It's been wonderful going to them. It's great to have A-1 Cleaners in our community. read more

I get my wash-and-fold done here all the time, super friendly and speedy! I called all the other cleaners in the area when I first moved, and this place was the best value for wash-and-fold by the pound. I have also gotten a tux dry-cleaned here, they did a great job and were able to get out all the stains. Would highly recommend, they're super nice!!! read more

I was in dire need of same day dry cleaning. I live around the corner from here and figured they were the quickest and easiest solution to my dry cleaning problem. Dropped off a gang load of gear for same day service and when I returned at 5 everything looked good. Very nice ladies clearly busting hump to get our gear cleaned up so we can look sharp. I definitely have a new dry cleaner b/c the other one I was using, directly across the street, seems not to understand the concept of time. I will say that $3 a shirt is a bit steep, but i think that's simply because of the same day service. read more

I have been a customer of Dan and Helen's for many, many years. They are always so very kind and courteous and offer amazing customer service. Everything is always done to their high standards. But, this week Dan and Helen went above and beyond the call of duty. My college-age son purchased a hard-shell bike box that had a defect in the strap that was to secure the box. The strap was too short and needed to be lengthened. To make matters even more difficult, the strap is riveted to the box and cannot be removed. I brought in this awkward box and showed them what needed to be done. They said they would definitely give it a try. To add to the request, I needed it done by the next morning since my son was leaving the next day. They got right on it and called that evening saying it was done and ready to be picked up. The workmanship was impeccable - one wouldn't know that it had been moved and resewn. On top of that, the amount they charged was more than reasonable. My son tried to give them more, but they would not accept it. They indicated that they were just glad to help. read more

Best cleaners in Burlingame!:) After bad experience and story that happened to me with Holiday Cleaners(look on my review from 20016)I was so careful when choosing new dry cleaners.LUCKY ME!!!!:) I use their service for almost 2 years and every single time they do it best job and never ever ruined anything I left for cleaning.Im so impressed not only with work they doing and how professional they are but also how nice the service is.Things like coats cashmere sweaters,silk,delicate dresses are always beautiful cleaned.Last time I left my leather leggings for cleaning and when I came to see it I was seriously shock what a wonderful job they did.Also once they saved my Isabel Marant cashmere scarf from bad stains.I was so grateful for that.Im so lucky that I found this place.These days good Dry Cleaning Place thats professional and takes care of your items are very very hard to find. read more

Best cleaners in peninsula! Super nice and organized. I even got my wedding dress clean here and the shop owners were so careful and kept me updated through the process. read more

Not a good choice if u have any stains on your clothes such as makeup, etc. They do not pay attention to detail at all. I moved and was looking for a new dry cleaner and they are not it. Hi Edited- the owner did reach out to me after leaving the review which shows he does care. My guess if that this will make my experience less common for others read more

As an airline pilot, I count on A-1 cleaners to keep my uniform looking sharp. Dan and company do an incredible job to keep my shirts looking crisp, white, and professional. Their service is friendly and they are extremely reliable. Best dry cleaner around! read more

I started coming here for wash and fold when I was unable to get quarters for the coin-op laundry in my building because of the coin shortage. They do a great job, with a quick turn-around, and show great care for my clothes. Since then I've also gotten several items dry cleaned here as well, and even a dress altered. They've done really excellently on everything I've brought here, and are very upfront about how long something may take. I've also brought some difficult items to clean here, and they're always willing to try they're best- and I've never been disappointed! I definitely won't be going anywhere else! read more

We have been using this cleaner for about 2 years without problems for our family needs. However today when I brought a silk shirt to be cleaned and a spot on it to be looked at if could come out, the owner and staff member were very rude, refused to even go over what could be done and were immediately argumentative, telling me to take the shirt elsewhere. Very rude. I took the shirt to another closeby cleaner who had no problems accepting the shirt and was very helpful. Our family will not be using A1 cleaners again. read more

I got two pants and a jumpsuit hemmed. They did a great invisible stitch on my suit pants and a straight hem on my jumpsuit and other pants. It took a week a week. I love how they let you try on tour pants, they pin the pants, and check for your feedback. The alterations were done in house. I'll be back for alterations! read more

Very good quality cleaners. Such a fantastic family business. Highly recommend.

The staff and service at A-1 cleaners are excellent. They have been our family's go-to laundry and dry-cleaner for 15 years. I've also had them hem curtains, re-do zippers, and do clothes adjustments - all good work. If you have stains, show them to the staff and they'll recommend the best approach and let you know the likelihood of success. read more

I've been a customer for over 6 years and have really gotten to know the owners. They provide top notch service and quality dry cleaning, especially on all my delicate garments. read more

I love their wash and fold! It has made my life so much easier. I highly recommend them, hands down best cleaners in the Burlingame/San Mateo area. read more
