About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Tide Cleaners, customers began noticing something peculiar one morning when they heard over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our stain removal specialist has been promoted to manager. Effective immediately, all stains are now permanent.’ Word spread quickly through town, and soon everyone was dropping off their clothes with a smile on their face. A delivery driver even stopped by one day with an old, faded poster from his childhood, saying proudly, 'This is my most stubborn stain!' The next morning, over the intercom came another announcement: 'Attention all customers—your favorite permanent stains will be returned tomorrow.'
2. A delivery driver pulled up to Tide Cleaners one afternoon, frowning as he noticed an unfamiliar car parked next to the building. Curious, he got out and approached the vehicle—only to discover that its trunk had mysteriously opened on its own. The delivery driver knocked gently on the window, expecting a startled owner. Instead, he saw an old man sleeping soundly inside, completely oblivious to the open trunk. With a smile, the driver quietly closed the trunk and drove off, leaving behind another urban legend for Tide Cleaners.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to Tide Cleaners one afternoon, frowning as he noticed an odd smell of fresh-cut grass wafting from inside. As he opened the door, a wave of fragrant lavender hit him, making his eyes water. A friendly voice called out: ‘Hey, you must be here for your shirts? They’re ready!’ Turns out, Tide Cleaners had been experimenting with new scents for their customers’ enjoyment. The delivery driver left smiling, thinking it was worth coming back just for the aroma.
4. A little girl walked into Tide Cleaners one day and pointed excitedly at the ceiling. Her mother looked up quizzically and saw nothing unusual—until she realized everyone else was staring too. It turned out that a delivery driver had accidentally left his lunchbox in the shop the previous week, and it had been hanging there ever since—a tiny metal thermos reflecting the sunlight just so. Everyone laughed when they realized what caused the mystery, and from then on, Tide Cleaners became known for its ‘ceiling lunchbox.’
