One flat price covers any garment dry cleaned, from a necktie to a winter coat, rather than a per-piece menu. The flat price itself varies by location, so the store page is the authority. Suede and leather are excluded and go to a specialist.
- Fees
- Payment is taken in advance at drop-off
What a visit is like
- Garments in by 9am are ready by 5pm the same day; anything later is due at 5pm the next day.
- There is no limit on how many items you can drop for same-day service.
- EZ Drop boxes take orders around the clock, and the in-by-9 promise applies to them too.
- Pickup and delivery runs through a DoorDash partnership in the ZIPS app at participating stores, within a seven-mile radius.
- A free key tag links to your account, and you can name two other people authorised to collect your order.
Ways to pay less
- ZIPS Rewards earns points on spend toward free items, plus member-only offers.

- Suede and leather do not qualify for the any-garment price and are handled by a specialist.
- The site warns its own prices may not be accurate; check the individual location page.
- Rewards expire 14 days after they are earned, and business accounts are not eligible.
