About Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning

Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning is changing the face of dry cleaning. Dry cleaning is a fragmented, stagnate industry, with lack of national brand recognition and consistency from location to location.
Door-To-Door Dry Cleaning changes the perception of dry cleaning through our marketing, image, professionalism and route efficiency. We know what it takes to create a strong brand, and people have grown to trust and rely on us for our quality and exemplary customer service.

About Evans Garment Restoration

Evans Garment Restoration, LLC, is a national textile, garment and soft goods restoration franchise that has developed three proprietary processes including the industry's only patented process (U.S. Patent # 7,141,124 B2). This process utilizes special equipment, cleaning agents and procedures that allow Evans to successfully restore up to twice as many garments as the typical dry cleaner. Unlike companies that "cherry pick" the easy to clean items and then claim high success rates, Evans takes all affected items and successfully restores 92-93% of them. Evans also utilizes a state-of-the-art inventory control system, has one point of contact on every claim from start to finish, delivers emergency clothes the next day and restores more so claims cost less.
