Welcome To The Kenny The Kleener Media Room

The Kenny the Kleener Skokie storefront with large front windows and service signs, as featured in the press stories collected in this media room.
This media room brings press coverage, news, and local stories about Kenny The Kleener into one place. For more than 45 years our family business has cleaned, pressed, and repaired clothes for homes across Skokie, Evanston, Wilmette, and the North Shore. Along the way, local papers, industry groups, and community groups have taken note. The items below are updated as new stories appear, so this page is the quickest way to see what has been written about us lately and who to contact for more.

Reporters and editors will find the basics here: a short company history, details on our five stores and free pickup and delivery routes, and background on the awards the business has earned over the years. If you are working on a story about dry cleaning, garment care, family-owned businesses, or the North Shore business scene, we are glad to talk. Our 100% electric delivery fleet and our long work with local schools, charities, and community events come up often.

Members of the press can ask for interviews, photos of our stores and team, or comment on industry topics by calling our main office at (847) 324-5101 or using the contact page. We aim to reply to media requests within one business day. You can read more about our founding, our people, and our approach on the about us page.

Customers are welcome in the media room too. Many of the stories here explain how garment care works, why some fabrics need special handling, and what to look for in a dry cleaner, so they pair well with our blog. Check back often, or follow us on social media, to see the latest additions to the media room.
