The assiduous staff at Alex’s Dry Cleaning Valet picks up sullied duds for a thorough preening with eco-friendly services before returning garments to their owners in a timely fashion. Prior to Alex's arrival, clients scan wardrobes to find unkempt blouses ($10.95 each), slacks ($12.05 each), and gold-plated pajamas beckoning for soap and suds. Alex's Dry Cleaning Valet specializes in bridal gown cleaning, pressing, and preservation as well as couture apparel, so clients can breathe easy as the diligent cleaners carefully reanimate designer cocktail dresses or two-piece suits. New customers receive a complimentary welcome kit that includes a personalized laundry bag, lint roller, spot tape for marking blemishes, and this fall’s line of Emperor’s new clothes. Pickup and delivery services can be scheduled over the phone or online.

Pricing for designer brands and couture garments may vary based on extra care and attention in processing them.
