At a 4 th of July party, I got a big blob of hot fudge on the front of my brand new dress. It was the first time I wore it, and I thought it was over, this stain would never come out. I did nothing on my own, but I brought it to Urban Cleaners in Skokie. The wonderful manager said she would hand spot it and then dry clean it. I was not optimistic. I just picked it up, and my jaw literally dropped. The dress was perfect. I cannot recommend Urban Cleaners enough. $12 saved me from having to replace my brand new dress. read more

The people at the desk are always efficient and polite. My cleaning is always done on time and without mishap. My only complaint is that I never have any idea what I'm spending. They give me a drop off receipt, but there is no price listed. They send a follow up text politely thanking me for my business, I appreciate it, but again, there is no price listed. I don't know what I owe until after I've paid for it by automatic debit to the credit card I have on file when I pick up my order. It doesn't seem like it would be that hard to include it, since it's all very tech forward. read more

Wrecked my brand new tommy bahama shirt. Do not bring silk here. Faded it like 2 years of machine washing and drying and put white dots all over where the dye has been blown completely off. Look left of each button whole for the really crazy damage spots read more

Urban Dry Cleaners - Faded silk shirt with many white dots put on it - Dry Cleaning Near Me - Skokie, Illinois

This is the best dry cleaner in the Chicago area. I drive 40 minutes to get my clothes cleaned here. They're the only ones that take care of stains without fading your clothes. And they have amazing customer service. Any time I have a wedding, I go to them to get my suits cleaned. But they also do a great job with my office clothes too. You won't be disappointed! read more

While the cleaning and laundering is great, they do not follow customer or label instructions. Shirts to be laundered are often dry cleaned instead with up charges. They always have an excuse: it was an employee's fault who has Ben fired; we dry cleaned all shirts by label; the managers makes the decision regardless of the instruction. I have had shirts with labels that state do not dry clean but they get dry cleaned . However, they will give a credit or refunds when this happens which is frequent. Advice: check receipts carefully. read more

If you need dry cleaning done, go somewhere else, epecially if you are getting dry cleaning done for a special occasion because you have no clue when you will get your clothes back... I was told on Thursday my clothes will be done on Saturday and to come pick it up between 12p to 4p when i dropped it off... came here to pick up at 12p on saturday... waited for 30 mins, no one showed up and store was closed.. came back at 230p, they were done with half of my clothes and was told to come back at 330p.. came back at 330p, now being told one of my sweater won't be ready til monday and can even tell me what time on Monday to come pick it up.. read more

Over promise, under deliver! I brought in 8 items (2 requiring hemming) and was told (and receipt reflects) they would be ready on Wednesday. I called on Thursday as had not heard from them and was told the hemming takes longer and therefore the item would not be ready until noon on Thursday. At 12:30 on Thursday I explained I needed these for vacation then. I came in to pick up my items and was told the hemmed pants would not be available until Friday. No apologies or sorry for the inconvenience. Anna just dug in her heels and said here is you receipt won't be ready until Friday. Gave me a new receipt for the late pair. I told her she lost a customer and her response without eye contact was "ok". So beware. They don't care if about customer needs and they do not deliver by due dates. read more

I am so impressed with the quality laundry and dry cleaning provided by Urban Dry Cleaners. They really go above and beyond my expectations. They don't use harsh chemicals, so my cashmere sweaters come out fresh and so soft and dry cleaned white clothing doesn't yellow. I sent a down comforter to be laundered and they returned it clean and fluffy in a nice plastic zipper case for storage. They even provide hangers with special plastic shoulder reinforcements for heavy coats and jackets. read more

Urban Dry Cleaners - Dry Cleaning Near Me - Skokie, Illinois

ABSOLUTELY the WORST Customer Service in addition to the WORST cleaning service. over the years, 50% of the items I bring in still have stains after cleaning, and I don't complain. Today's sweater pickup had a larger stain than when I brought it in. Rightfully frustrated, I asked why the stain still there and asked for a refund... the owners reply was "it's your stain, we just try to clean it". The owner accused me of trying to scam him and laughed at my request for a refund of $7.99 and smugly waved bye with a grin as I left. Never ever again ! read more

I went to the Milwaukee location. Oof.... Stay away. I listened to the five star reviews and sometimes forget that those can be fake. I brought in a brand new, never worn, fashion blazer/ jacket. All I wanted was for the folding lines to be taken out from the jacket from being shipped. The associate stated the jacket would need to be pressed. I told her no, that's not a good idea, but she stated that's how they do it. I told her if that's how they do it, that's fine, so long as it doesn't add any more lines to the jacket and the existing lines are taken out. She said there wont be any lines. Unfortunately, they pressed the jacket, or "steam pressed" it, as management stated, and I got permanent double lines all over the jacket on either side of each seam! Ahhh! They sent the jacket away two more times for it to be fixed and I informed management, if the lines can't be taken out, I want to be refunded the cost of the jacket as this was their fault. They refused to refund me and stated the lines were a manufacturer's defect. How could that be if the lines weren't there in the first place? Furthermore, if there's any concerns on what the customer wants done vs. what the results are going to be, shouldn't the customer be informed of that? Eesh. My friend suggested CD Cleaners, maybe I'll try them instead. My jacket is ruined. Business response: Thanks for your review Cheryl. We are sorry you feel this way. As we stated the lines on the bottom was due to the manufacturing issue of your fashion jacket. If this was caused by us it would be all over and other areas of the seam. Once again thanks for your business. My response: The manufacturer would never send me a garment with pressed lines on it, and had they done so, I would've returned the garment. The reason other lines didn't present themselves on the rest of the jacket is because the jacket is flat every where else, except where the seams are. That's why your pressed lines only showed up by the seams, because you pressed the garment over its seams. When fabric has to be sewn together there will be a slight overhang of material, and it's up to the dry cleaner to give a little extra care to these seamed areas and not press them, because they will make permanent double lines in the fabric on both sides of the seam. This is dry cleaning 101. Like I said, customer beware, there are a million other dry cleaners you can go to. And instead of working this out with me or asking me to come in, I was given the brush off. So I will take my money elsewhere. read more

Dropped of a dress mid-week that required cleaning prior to a Saturday wedding (not THE wedding dress, but still important). UC promised--verbally and in writing--that the dress would be ready the day before the ceremony. Friday came... no dress. Worse, can't find the dress? As it turns out, the specialist used to clean items like this looked at it (mid-week) and just set it aside, then left for the week. This is a one-strike ballgame for me. Given all the other choices, I cannot in any way recommend Urban Cleaners. read more

I brought in 2 white winter jackets which were very very dirty - bad bad stains on sleeves. These guys did an UNBELIEVABLE job!! These guys are the best!! Very happy customer read more

I have used this dry cleaner since it opened a few years back. My wife complained that they faded the color on some of her clothing and refused to let me take her items there! My final straw with this establishment was when I took some sofa pillow cases that had a gold metallic finish on them to be dry cleaned. When I got them back, all of the gold metallic finish was gone. The manager stated to me that the cameras didn't show the gold finish. Anyone that has ever taken a picture of something with a gold finish knows that light has to reflect off of the gold or it will look flat! Anyway I am done with this place. I'm sure I can get better results else where!! Use this place at your own risk!! read more

They just opened in January. Great location because it's right by I-94 and in a plaza that has tons of parking. The first thing I noticed was how they have automatic doors and a big lobby. The doors were a major plus because the dry cleaning place I used to go to didn't have them and I always had trouble opening when I'm bringing in multiple items of clothing. It's the little things, y'all. The lobby was airy, modern and super inviting. As soon as you walk in you'll see a long counter where they'll check in your clothing. Saj, the manager, assisted me and informed me that they only use natural products and practice sustainable cleaning. With their introductory offer, 3 winter coats including one with faux fur (that another dry cleaner chain couldn't clean), a cashmere and wool blend sweater and velvet skirt came out to only $17.07. Wow. My clothes came out so clean and soft. They were ready in less than 24hours. I definitely recommend! If you need a quote, just call them ahead of time. read more

Definitely 5 stars place! My wife found it on Yelp and I'm glad she did. I wouldn't go anywhere else. They are very professional, great customer service. Place is very clean. I like how they send you updates. Excellent job! read more

Awesome customer service! I had a wedding this past weekend to attend and as usual I was last minute to get my suit cleaned. It's an older suit because my newer suits are too big and I didn't have time to get them tailored down. When I pulled the suit out boom it fit perfect again but was in need of a cleaning bad. I then noticed one of the jacket buttons was broken . So I went to urban because of the great reviews and let me tell you they were amazing. They originally told me Monday before they could have it cleaned but after I explained I had a wedding Sunday they found a way to have it done the next day (Saturday). They also did a great job with the button and their prices are awesome too. I'm glad I found this gem and will be back again for all my dry cleaning needs. read more

YES! Please try them. My white dress turned out crisp out and not yellow like other overpriced dry-cleaning. I have some pricey Cashmere sweater ($200-300) that are fluffy and feel like new after I got them dry cleaned here. I 100% recommend this place. The staff is very professional and chill. Anna greeted me for the first time and she was sweet. The place is very clean too! Free coffee too! It does not smell like chemicals or other funky smells. read more

Exceptional service from Saj and the team! Their green cleaning leaves clothes odorless, soft, and with no fade. Highly recommended

Great and fast service. They were extremely nice and the prices are the best in the area. Super professional and nice crew working there. Highly recommend read more

I've been here multiple times in the past year and I've always received excellent service. Good prices, quick turnaround time, and high quality work. I've brought 3 different Canada goose jackets here and they've always done an amazing job on them. Don't hesitate to come here! Much more continued business to come read more

No more chipped buttons guys!!! I told my husband to go to this dry-cleaning since I started to use them and really liked their service. He took his favorite shirts and he was happy to see that the buttons were not chipped. I agree with Charisse B - automatic doors are a big plus since most of us have a lot of things to carry to our car - Oh and the staff always offers to carry my items to my car. Excellent location with FREE PARKING, right off of 94 at Dempster and Gross Point. read more

What initially enticed me to go to this place was the Groupon I purchased. I noticed it was a "green" cleaner and wanted to try it out. When I arrived, I noticed how clean and bright the place was. They were very nice and attentive, asked if I was a new customer, inputed my info, and counted my garments for dry cleaning. She then said that since I am a new customer, I'd receive 50% off. Love that! The price was already reasonable. So, that was cheaper than my Groupon and it can be used on my next trip to this cleaner. When I received my 8 dry cleaned garments, I was well-pleased. Everything was clean and lotion/oil stains weren't visible anymore by the pockets. Tip: Let them know any place of concentration. Dirt/oil/markings can receive extra care. I'll definitely be back again! read more

Amazing service and quality. I was pleasantly surprised. Would highly recommend giving a try!!

I am so impressed with a Urban Cleaners. I bought two items in that were wool And wound up having heavy perfume odors in them which I cannot stand. I tried a regular dry cleaner and sadly the perfume odor remained. Urban cleaners offered to clean my items and not charge me if they couldn't get the smells out of my wool garments. Within one day I was notified that my clothing was ready to pick up. The price point is fantastic and no perfume residual is in either of my two items of clothing. Urban cleaners will be my dry cleaner of choice from now on. I highly recommend them and hope that you have a as an amazing experiences as I have! read more

Very nice and helpful. Being a first time customer, they gave me 50% off. Fast service. They were able to press my 2 suits in less than an hour! read more

Finally! An amazing cleaners near by. Aside from the beautiful clean interior and the crystal chandelier, the gentleman actually brought my clothes to my car. They dry clean and even do your laundry if you drop it off. When I dropped off my clothes he put them in their own bag instead of piling them with strangers dirty clothes. It's clean and green, better for the environment! Just go here! read more

Im so happy that this cleaner opened! Before Skokie did not have many decent dry cleaner locations. I went in for the first time yesterday (5/8/19) with my mother and the young lady working was very helpful and polite. I appreciated her customer service very much. It was quick and easy and she accepted my first time customer coupon. They did an excellent job with my dry cleaning. Good prices, great customer service, excellent location. read more

Pricing is for 5 star service but customer service is and cleaning is 1 star. Literally have had my outfits sent three times and they cannot get it right and then show attitude on not being able to clean or alter. read more

Awful service. General incompetence. Management doesn't want to take any responsibility for their numerous mistakes beyond an admission. Staff was rude and disrespectful. They made me feel uncomfortable even giving them my clothes in the future. There's so many better cleaners. I'd recommend Sharp Corner Cleaners nearby or Oakton Cleaners. read more

This place provides amazing service and does a great job on dry cleaning. I took my Ugg boots that we're damaged by the snow, when I got them back they looked amazing. I would definitely recommend this dry cleaners. Thank you! read more

I have never encountered a Cleaners who I like well enough to take the time and write a review until Urban Cleaners. Not only are they the nicest people in town, but they have superior service, are always on time and are so reasonably priced that it shocks me. Oh did I forget to mention that they are environmentally friendly? It is a win-win-win!! Love their beautiful, contemporary storefront too (just to add more to their good list). If you are in the Skokie area and need a great cleaners, you have GOT TO GO to Urban Cleaners. read more

Speedy yet quality cleaners! I will continue to use their service because I had some issues with other places before and Urban Cleaners has outdone all of the other surrounding stores that I've tried out in the area. For example, I had a blazer that no one could get a stain out, whereas UC took it right out! Not to mention, their staff has been super friendly, considerate and honestly the service deserves a six star rating for going the extra mile to make sure the job gets done! read more

Awesome customer service and your clothes come out looking new. They get it done in a timely manner compared to other cleaners. I recommend this place to everyone who cares about their clothes. read more

This place is amazing, such high quality in service and quality in work. They do a great job in more delicate clothes such as Indian clothes. My wife had a huge stain on her Indian outfit and they were able to get it out when previous dry cleaners could not. Would recommend them to anyone. read more

If you're looking for the best cleaners...look no further - Urban Cleaners can't be beat! Their customer service is first class and their cleaning is outstanding, easy on your clothing, prompt with service delivery and always presenting an accommodated friendly approach to each and every experience. The goal is to find a business comparable to Urban Cleaners for all of my service needs. Great Job! Many Thanks! read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HORRIBLE OWNER!! If I could give a negative star I would. I had dropped off three items a few months ago before leaving the state for work and at that time the woman behind the counter only asked for my phone number for the dry cleaning claim ticket. I gave her my phone number as she requested and left. Once back in town and prior to returning to the dry cleaners to retrieve my items, I search everywhere for the claim ticket but couldn't find it. I went to the cleaners anyway thinking if I could just describe the three items I dropped off down to the color, size and the tags on the clothes showing the brand name I wouldn't have any issues paying for my clothes and getting them back. I went to the dry cleaner this morning and only the owner was working when I arrived. I told him my situation and after checking their system and not finding my phone number, he told me my clothes weren't there. I asked multiple times if he could please do a quick- walk through to check if my clothes were hanging in the back possibly without a ticket, he absolutely refused to even check. This is a small neighborhood dry cleaner so the store isn't even that large to do a walk through for a customers items. I asked again and gave him even more details about each item and he said he knows they wouldn't be there because my phone number wasn't in there their system end of story. He then said it was my fault my information wasn't in the system and if I was dropping my car off for service would I only give them my phone number for a claim ticket? Seriously!??! He was overbearing, rude, uncooperative and lacked any basic customer service skills or accountability. How lazy and unprofessional can you be, especially as the owner of a small business!?? I am now out a cute summer dress, a cashmere scarf and a cashmere sweater all because the owner is bitter and hates his customers. Go anywhere else for your dry cleaning but here. read more

I had went to 3 other dry cleaners trying to get a brand new shirt pressed that I had to immediately wear to work. No other cleaner would even try to help me. The lady and gentleman at Urban Cleaners were very kind and were willing to help. Well now they've gained a new customer, as I work only a couple blocks away. Thank you Urban Cleaners! 11/21/20 2:00pm read more

I started out using Yelp to only complain about businesses but so many places really are outstanding and need to be recognized such as Urban Cleaners! I discovered them shortly after they opened and much to my surprise they have been great and are above and beyond from all other cleaners I have used in the past. Their prices are good and they offer fabulous first time discounts to new customers. I once had a leather belt that they sent out for repair and it came back better than when it was new. I bring in all my cashmere sweaters that they do an expert job on. During this pandemic they have been wonderful with contactless curbside service and even before the pandemic, they have always offered free pick-up and delivery. I'm,just so happy to finally have a reliable cleaners near me that I can trust. read more

ABOVE AND BEYOND! I just had my first experience with Urban Cleaners, (wash and fold, pick up and delivery service), and am delighted! Picked up on Tuesday, delivered on Thursday, clean and perfectly folded clothes, towels, etc. PLUS several emails from management before and after delivery to make sure everything was in order. They deserve every 5-star review they get. read more

Lifesavers. Me and all my friends needed a quick turnaround for a wedding that we were having at the Holiday inn next door. They got our suits and shirts taken care of and clean in a heartbeat.
