Company Overviews

About Pressed4Time

Los Angeles area accountant Ken Levinson watched as dozens of his co-workers flocked to the parking lot to make a purchase from the food truck. Levinson realized there were many products and services that could be brought to workplaces in the same way. He decided to start a dry cleaning pick-up and delivery system, founding Pressed4Time in 1987. Pressed4Time franchisees set up pick-up and drop-off schedules with local businesses, delivering clothing and other items to local dry cleaners where they are cleaned, mended or altered. The company also collects shoes, handbags and luggage for repairs.
The convenience of pick up and delivery dry cleaning combined with superior customer service ensures your satisfaction.

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.
