Squeaky Cleaners

We used Squeaky Cleaners for their wash-​dry-​fold service as it was the closest place for us to go and my boyfriend had liked their service. Recently, though, my boyfriend’s convinced that he’s missing clothes when they get back to us. I haven’t been thrilled about the quality of the cleaning, either.
We decided to try out another cleaner for wash-​dry-​fold service and are having a really good experience there. It’s too bad, since this one is so close. If you’ve got a car, trying elsewhere might be a good bet.

Needed a fast and easy dry cleaner that was close to my apartment. Found this place and they did exactly that. It was anything special, but they got me my shirts back in time and clean.

Closed today because their dry cleaning equipment is broken. Pretty frustrating for me since they’re the only laundromat in walking distance, but I’d guess really frustrating for the people who wanted to pick up their dry cleaning.
My experience otherwise is fine, though it’d be nice if they had more than one rolling basket, or if they’d move people’s finished washing or drying out of machines when they don’t show up to do it themselves.

Ok, I’m giving up on them. The manager left while I was there, and locked up the only rolling basket. No phone number I could find if there were problems, so with no manager you’re on your own.
Their driers default to no-​heat, so if you don’t notice, you can put your quarters in and come back to find no actual drying has occurred – a bit of chicanery that doesn’t speak well of them.
I live a block from this place, but if I can tote my laundry in one trip, I’ll be going to one half a mile away. (That’s on foot – no car.)

Even though this place is right around the corner from me, I won’t be using them again. I brought several blouses in; despite pointing out the stains, they were there when I picked them up (in one instance, the blouse had something caked on that clearly hadn’t been touched in any removal attempt). I’ll take my money elsewhere.

These guys are nice. They dry clean my stuff, when I give up trying to steam clean it at home in the dryer and actually pony up the money. They’re quick and very thorough. Unlike many dry cleaners, they always take the time to look over each garment and mark the stains or discolorations with a bit of orange tape to make sure it gets special attention. A lot of dry cleaners don’t bother with that unless you point them out yourself.
Nothing I hate more than spending 60 buck on dry cleaning and still having random crap crusted on your clothes when you get them back. This hasn’t happened to me at squeaky cleaners.

Laundromat — standard (although a couple of chairs would be nice)
Dry Cleaning — horrible. It’s expensive and my clothes are never fully cleaned. In addition, I had a dress cleaned here and I told them to be very careful because there was lots of stitching. The dress came back and the stitches were lose in multiple areas and coming undone in others. After arguing they finally agreed to fix the garment. When I picked up the dress the second time, there were still multiple lose stitches, they only fixed the two I had pointed out previously. Then they still tried to make me pay for the garment.
I will continue to do laundry there because it’s the closest, but no more dry cleaning.

Been coming here for a few years. It is right on my way to work. Shirt and dry cleaning prices are very reasonable (Zoots is $ 2.25/shirt). But what I like the most is the next day turnaround. Zoots takes at least 3 days

So I’m new to town and go to Squeaky’s for dry cleaning based on the Unilocal reviews. I gotta say I feel misled. Coming from DC I’ve paid plenty for dry cleaning, but $ 41 for 6 items seems pretty normal, no big savings here. Considering the quality of the cleaning, I’d venture to say it’s overpriced.
It’s not like my clothes came back clean or well-​finished. My black dress is still stained and the armpits have a white powder caking them that wasn’t even there when I brought it in. All the buttons on the dress are scratched. It looks more worn out and old after dry cleaning then if I had thrown it in the wash.
Every shirt I brought in still has pit stains and they still smell like BO. I’ll be going back today to get a refund.

This is the closest laundry option for me, and it’s pretty good. I haven’t used the dry cleaning so I can’t comment on that. The prices seem very reasonable compared to other places and there are usually plenty of open washers and dryers, at least when I’m there.
The only big gripe I have with it is that there is no place to sit! I understand that it’s small but it would be nice if there were a few chairs so you could hang out for those last 5 minutes of drying without leaning against the washers and inevitably getting in someone else’s way.

Right on, Squeaky! I’ve only had dry cleaning done there, no laundry, but they did a great job getting pine sap out of a very expensive garment I had. And the only person I have seen working there (outgoing, cheerful, good-​looking Asian guy) has always been great, even calling me with updates about the sap stain and some advice I had asked about something else. Can’t beat the service! And my stuff has always been delivered at the time promised or early.

Squeaky cleaners is very affordable (the cheapest I have been able to find in Cambridge thus far) and does a great job with both women’s clothing as well as my husband’s suits and dress shirts. The manager of the store is incredibly friendly and was even kind enough to open the store for me one night after he had just closed so that I could get the dry cleaning I needed before we went away on vacation. Now that is service!

Quick for dry cleaning and shirt laundering. Cheapest place I’ve found in Cambridge to launder women’s shirts.
