Went to see the Dinos found this too.

That's our name on the business partner wall at the Zoo.  So cool to see it up there.

Who we are!

In our excitement in starting a new blog we forgot to introduce ourselves.

We are a Jacksonville Dry Cleaner located on the Northside near the Jacksonville International Airport.  When the cleaner where my mother Nita worked for 12 years closed my wife Lea and I opened Nita’s All Washed Up Dry Cleaning to give her a place to work where she could put her many years of experience to use.  We pride ourselves on great service and high quality. 

We have partnered with many expert vendors to bring our clients a full selection of quality services including alterations, shoe repair, leather cleaning and repair, rug cleaning, wedding gown cleaning and preservation, and tuxedo rentals.  In addition to our laundry and dry cleaning services these specialty services make us a one stop shop for all of your garment care needs.  We also serve many wedding and event professionals in and around the Jacksonville area.  This gives us a wide range of contacts in the wedding industry if you have a need for your special day. 

We provide service to many large clients including the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens, BP, Wal-Mart, and many others.  Servicing these clients has given us great experience in working large projects on short deadlines.  From a single pair of boots to a van full of costumes we are prepared to handle any of your dry cleaning needs, whatever they may be.

Stop by and meet us.  We are friendly and ready to clean up whatever stains you have to bring us.

BK and Pizza Hut

I was at the shop this afternoon to meet with someone about continuing our sponsorship of San Mateo Little League.  The meeting went well and fast.  As I was leaving I was surrounded by the awesome aromas of our neighbors,  Burger King and Pizza Hut.  What great smells to have around all day.  However, this makes sticking to any sort of diet impossible.  Opening on Saturdays we are treated to a parking lot filled with the smell of BK's grill.  What is a dry cleaner to do?  If those aren't enough temptations we also have Seafood Express and Casa Maria.  So stop by to drop off your clothes with us and stay for a bite to eat with one of our delicious neighbours.  We have such a great location in the new Oceanway!

Wedding contest!

Looking forward to seeing the winners of the Annual Wedding Contest.  Good luck to everyone who entered!

Days at the shop

I think the thing we love most about our business is the people we get to know.  Some customers choose to keep there interactions in our shop very impersonal, and that is perfectly fine.  Some on the other hand are more like friends and family.  We talk and laugh.  Jokes are told and local events are discussed.  This makes working weekends seem less like work and more like spending time entertaining guests.  That is what makes dry cleaning such a great industry.  You help people save time and look good for work and special occasions.  You also make so many new friends.
