Just Say “No”
I dropped off some clothes at the dry cleaners this morning. I don’t dry clean much because of the toxic chemicals, but I don’t like ironing, so dry cleaning is an occasional necessary evil. I asked the lady at the counter not to wrap my clothes in plastic after cleaning. She explained that “dust” could get on them, but I agreed to take the chance. Tonight, my clothes were bagless and put on hangers, which I return to the dry cleaners on return trips.
I avoided touching my white blouse to the outside of my car, which was dirty from the recent rains. But the clothes made it home just fine.

I have to admit that I don’t use the dry cleaners but have read recent articles about some dry cleaners going with a more clean (green) process. Not sure about it but it sounds like they are working on it.
