About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A few years ago, a delivery driver noticed something strange. Every Tuesday afternoon, right after he dropped off clothes at Best Cleaners, he would see an old lady picking up exactly the same number of bags as she had delivered. ‘Who are you dropping them off for?’ he asked one day. She just smiled and said, “It’s a secret.” Finally, someone asked her son, who laughed and explained: ‘She’s my grandmother, and every week I bring her clean clothes from here because she can’t drive anymore.’ The delivery guy shook his head, smiling: ‘I thought it was some kind of time-traveling laundry!’

2. A neighborhood woman started dropping off her laundry on Wednesdays around sunset. But soon everyone noticed she never picked it up again. One day, a delivery driver found an old photo album among the clothes and decided to have some fun. He pretended to be the missing woman, picking up ‘her’ laundry every week. Soon enough, he became a local hero for his quick service and friendly smile—until someone recognized him pushing a cart full of vintage photos through the store.

3. At dawn one morning, an early riser passing by Best Cleaners saw something peculiar—a small bird had perched itself on the window sill, its beak stuck in the buttonhole of a suit jacket.} The curious bird struggled for a moment before a delivery driver happened along and gently pried open its beak. Turned out the little fellow was just trying to clean his own feathers with that suit button as a makeshift comb! Ever since then, locals joke that Best Cleaners also offers ‘avian express’ services.

4. One day, a delivery driver asked himself: ‘Why does Mrs. Johnson always pick up her clothes exactly at midnight?’ Curious, he followed her one night and saw her walking into Best Cleaners just after eleven. Turns out she had a secret admirer who left her clothes there every week with a note inside: 'Wear me tonight.' The delivery driver blushed and decided never to be late again.
