SPECIALIZED SERVICES

DRY CLEANING

Dempsey’s Fashionable Laundry has been providing Northeastern PA with professional dry cleaning service for over 60 years. Our mission is simple: Provide the highest quality cleaning at the most affordable price for our customers. It’s a mission that has worked for generations!

COMMERCIAL LAUNDRY

Dempsey’s Fashionable Laundry is a Customer-Owned Goods (COG) Laundry that services the greater Scranton/Wilkes Barre area as well as the Pocono Mountains. Customers who own their linen rely on Dempsey’s Fashionable Laundry to pick up, launder, and deliver up to six days a week to any location. The benefit of COG is it allows the customer to be in control of inventory, attrition, and most importantly cost.

WEDDING GOWN & FORMAL ATTIRE CARE

Special occasion souvenirs deserve special treatment. We take special care with wedding and formal attire items to ensure that, like the memories made the day they were worn, they remain vivid and treasured.

TEAM UNIFORMS

Stains on athletic uniforms are offensive, so it’s a good thing we play defense. Be game-day ready when Dempsey Fashionable Laundry is on your team!

SUEDES, LEATHERS & FURS

To keep expensive fabrics looking their best, leave them with someone you trust. Leave them with the experts at Dempsey Fashionable Laundry, where we’ve been caring for special-care items for decades.

SHIRT PRESSING

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the laundry room! Get that crisp, professional look without the hard work.

OUTSOURCING BENEFITS

When you trust Dempsey Fashionable Laundry, you’re able to save time and money while focusing on your business.

Reduce costs and conserve resources.

Commercial laundry equipment is expensive to purchase and can be costly to maintain. When you outsource laundry services, you lower capital and utility expenditures, reduce the need for staff, eliminate equipment maintenance, and free space for revenue-producing services.

A standard 400-room hotel running at 60-70% occupancy would generate more than 1 million pounds of linen annually. That’s quite a burden on the hotel, which may not have the space or funds to support water and energy recapturing equipment for environmentally responsible laundering. Let’s take a closer look at non-commercial vs. commercial laundry operations.

WATER

Non-commercial facilities are not usually designed to recycle water. As a result, it’s possible that they use up to 10 times the volume of water that a commercial facility would use. Choosing Dempsey Fashionable Laundry saves time and money, and it contributes positively to water conservation efforts. Using our services, you will improve your bottom line and support sustainable resources.

FUEL & ELECTRICITY

Advanced machinery is designed to effectively process laundry while significantly reducing fuel and energy requirements. Following the example of a facility that generates more than one million pounds of laundry per year, the cost difference related to fuel and electrical inefficiency can be more than $15,000 per year.

LABOR

Our equipment is sized and designed for large volume. For that reason, Dempsey Fashionable Laundry is able to process 100 pounds per operator – that’s 35-50% more than a conventional laundry operation can handle. Estimating a total hourly labor cost of approximately $16-20 (salary and benefits), your potential savings could amount to more than $31,000 per employee.

ADDITIONAL COSTS

Operating laundry services on-site may also cost time and money in terms of taxes, licenses, permits, and so on. Call us to pick up your linen, and use the space and time to add a spa, storage room, employee training space, or other amenity to your business.

Only pay for what you need.

Dempsey Fashionable Laundry uses a variable cost system. That means that, instead of paying fixed costs for on-site service, you pay a variable cost that is calculated by number of occupied room. Our system saves you money, because you are able to offset the linen fees with the room rental rates. During lower occupancy seasons, you won’t lose money as you would under a fixed cost model.
