De Best Laundry & Dry Cleaning

"Quality Work, Excellent Customer Service"

About Us

Since opening our doors in 2001, De Best Laundry & Dry Cleaning has proudly served the Kansas City community with reliable, high-quality garment care and laundry services. What began as a neighborhood laundromat has grown into a trusted destination for everything from everyday laundry to delicate formalwear and specialty items. For over two decades, our mission has remained the same: to make laundry easier, more convenient, and more personalized for every customer who walks through our doors.

We specialize in dry-cleaning, alterations, and the expert care of suits, prom dresses, and bridesmaid gowns—garments that require precision, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of fabric and fit. Whether you're preparing for a special event or simply want your favorite outfit to look its best, our team treats each item with the care it deserves. Our dry-cleaning process is gentle yet effective, preserving color, texture, and intricate embellishments, while our skilled tailors ensure every piece fits perfectly and comfortably.

At De Best, we believe laundry should work around your life—not the other way around. That’s why we offer convenient pick-up and drop-off services, along with extended overnight and weekend hours, so you can get your laundry done on your schedule. Our facility features modern, coin-operated washers and dryers for those who prefer self-service, and we also provide wash & fold and full-service options for busy customers who want to leave the work to us.

From leather goods and drapes to uniforms and casual wear, we’re equipped to handle a wide range of cleaning needs. Our commitment to quality, customer service, and community has made us a staple in Kansas City—and we’re honored to continue serving our neighbors with the same dedication and care we’ve had since day one.

Whether you're a longtime customer or visiting us for the first time, we invite you to experience the De Best difference. For more information or to schedule a service, contact us today—we’re here to help your clothes look and feel their very best.
