As a disclaimer, I've only taken clothes to a dry cleaner one other time, but I took in a blouse, a wool coat, and a satin dress. The blouse was fine, although the strings that tie the back together were all tangled- not a big deal. The dress had water spots and some other new stain on it. Maybe the water spots are normal, but I would not expect a new stain from cleaning.. The wool coat appears clean and nice. I also brought in 2 baseball jerseys that I wanted to add patches to. I would have assumed that a place that claims to do alterations would have no issue with this, but she even told me she has sewn many patches on police and fire men uniforms, school jerseys, etc. I am astonished how poorly this was done, I would have sewn them on myself if I knew this would be the result. Maybe I was wrong to bring in Dodgers jerseys, but I would rather have her spit in my face than do a poor job. Can't say anything about the price- altogether this was $59. read more

Central Cleaners prices are a good value and her happy demeanor makes it even better. read more

We recently had the pleasure of coming across Central Cleaners and honestly have never set foot in another dry cleaner since! We live in downtown JC and although we had a great delivery service, it was just becoming unaffordable with more and more work activities going back to in-person. Thankfully we saw Annette's business one day in traffic... All I have to say is Annette is a gem - she's incredibly detailed, a true professional with decades in the business and does amazing job dry cleaning. She's timely and especially reliable. I promise you won't walk out of that business without a smile on your face! read more

Kind of odd the only review was 3 stars and he had ZERO negative things to say about the place. That is annoying... it's only their business and life of 30 some years. ANYWEIGHUH *cough*poopiemovebro*cough* My bf's job requires him to have his clothing dry cleaned and tailored CONSTANTLY. Once upon a time, he had a reliable place, that became unreliable, then we moved and he was on the search for a new place. A year and a half of trying new places, he randomly tells me of an unassuming place with a sweet older woman who he is happy with. I was all "WHO IS THIS WOMAN WHO STOLE MY MAN'S HEART?!?!? I WILL SHOW HER A THING OR TWO!!!!!" So, I stomped up to this "Cleaners" business, opened the door and showed Annette 2 dresses to hem, a skirt with a busted zipped and a pair of jeans to take in at the waist... So - I had 4 items to show her. AND BOY, DID I SHOW HER! She took my clothes, hand wrote an invoice...TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS FOR EVERYTHING!?!?!? I immediately called the cops because I was witnessing highway robbery.. This woman was robbing herself with that amazing price and I was NOT going to stand for it! She said "And it is Saturday... will Thursday work for you? It will be done by then." THE AUDACITY of having everything I wanted completed within a week! I almost left right there, but I had to take my copy of the ticket, so I thanked her THEN left the establishment completely satisfied with her sweet customer service, great price AND quick turn around. I returned on Thursday, (they open at 7:15am) and not only was she even MORE pleasant than she was the first time, she pressed my clothes so I can wear them immediately!!!! THEEEE FREEGGGIN NERVEEEEEEE! I gave her 30 dollars and told her to keep the change because this transaction in NEW JERSEY was too ridiculous for me to take 5 dollars back. She was so confused about the five dollars, I had to almost rush out of the dern place! "ENJOY YOUR DAY!" she said as I turned my back to her smiling face. phhhhttt: I WILL enjoy my day, thank you very much! Seriously - it was a great day. okay - real talk: I almost want to keep this place a secret because I am so happy with everything. I have not tried the dry cleaning, but "Mr. 3 Stars" said that the pricing is reasonable there as well - so I guess this will be my place when I need anything done to my clothes. read more

I have been going here for over 30 years. Annette is the best. She is so friendly and sweet. She is super talented with any repair you might need. The dry cleaning services are excellent, quick, and very fairly priced. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Parking is very easy when you stop there too ! read more

Kind of non-descript dry cleaner. There is not a sign out front, it is located on the corner of Irving Street and Kennedy Blvd in Jersey City Heights. It is where I go to get clothes dry cleaned and alterations because I have recently dropped some weight. It is an established business, per my wife they have been there since she has lived in the neighborhood (over 30 years). Pretty reasonably priced, closed on Sundays & Mondays. Usually you will have your clothes back in 2 days. read more

There isn't really too much to say. 1. Friendly Service-Check 2. Quality Work-Check 3. Speedy Service-Check 4. Prices-Check I used to head down to a very well rated place on Central Ave, but they kept wanting more and more of my wallet! It got a little bit out of control, and that led me to Anette and now I'm happy as can be. read more

Got pair of pants hemmed and tapered but the result was not that great. Very sloppy work for something that took a week to get back. I'm not familiar with sewing terminologies but the "new"stitch line on one of the pants leg was crooked thus you can see parts of the original stitch line near the front pocket area. Upon reversing the pants inside out to check, I can clearly see that part of the bottom pocket was sewn together to the pants. I'm pretty sure you're not suppose to sew the pocket to the pants leg because the other side of the pants look normal. The taper was also uneven, one leg was definitely wider than the other. The hem on the bottom of the leg opening seems to be done by hand which had loose wide gaps in between the stitching causing me to get my toes stuck in them as I'm putting on the pants. Luckily I didn't pull hard on the pants or else it would have ripped. Also, the new stitches on the side of the legs weren't ironed down so that they would be nice and smooth. You can see the ridges on both side compared to the flatness of the parts that were unaltered. I've had my pants altered before so I can tell when something doesn't look right. I mean for someone who boldly and proudly claimed she's been doing it for over 40 years, this was a hack job. Maybe it was my first time there? I don't know if regulars have the same experiences but I doubt I'd want to continue to do business here again to find out. read more
