We are a local family business with over 60 years’ experience in the garment care and laundry industry. We are a third generation of local launderers, established in Hull in 1950. We are now a twin brother team and we are delighted to have recently invested locally and opened our new facility on Anlaby Road. A modern and stylish facility, Zip Dry Cleaners. We now strive to bring a range of services to the region that provide convenience for our customers but also team up with partners who share our values to deliver the best for the region.
Our Values
Quality Garment Care done responsibly
Zip is the first in the region, and one of the first in the UK to use Sensene, an innovative, gentler and environmentally responsible dry-cleaning solvent. Unlike traditional dry-cleaning solvents, Sensene is a non-hazardous and is biodegradable substance. Perchlorethylene or ‘PERC’, which is used by 80% of traditional dry cleaners’, is not only a hazardous and non-biodegradable substance, it has been banned in France and California following links to ill health and cancers. We are proud to bring to the people of Hull a far safer, responsible and fresher dry-cleaning service. We are also the first to have a hanger and plastic return scheme which helps save you money and reduce impact on the environment.
However, it is always about the quality of garment care. Our method is not just more responsible but cleans and cares for garments better, improving and maintaining the feel, colour and freshness of the garments. We work with in-house and other experts to offer a full range of services at the highest quality. Including leathers and handbags, antique garments, alterations and repairs. For those most special of events, we also offer expert wedding, bridesmaids’ and prom dress cleaning and press services.
We also offer laundry and dry cleaning services to local businesses, however small or bespoke, please enquire here.
