Merivale.
So much Moore than
just a drycleaners
Moores Drycleaners on Papanui Road
is so much more than just a drycleaning
business - it is part of the fabric of Merivale
itself. Their terrific customer service,
expertise and highly-professional standards
have seen them succeed on the same spot
for over half a century. In fact, it is the
oldest business still operating in the same
location in Merivale, and also is the oldest
family-owned and operated drycleaners
in the whole of
Canterbury.
What makes it
such a local success?
Owner Greg Moore’s
father began Moores
Drycleaning back in
1961 and Greg joined
him straight out of
school. Having been
there ever since, his
own knowledge is
unparalleled, and it is
the focus on meeting
the needs of customers
that makes them stand
out. These days, his daughter has joined the
team, making her the third generation to work
in the business.
Their focus is on providing a terrific
service to local clients and meeting all their
drycleaning needs. Whether you are spring
cleaning and want to freshen up all your
drapes, duvets and bedding, or have toughto-remove
spots, they are on hand to help.
They will make sure that garments such as
suits and dresses look as good as new when
they return them to you, and they are experts
at working with delicate fabrics in evening
gowns and cocktail dresses. They are also
the go-to drycleaners for wedding dresses,
recommended by many of the region’s bridal
salons to their new brides. In fact, they are
just about the largest drycleaners for wedding
dresses in the south island.
In spite of their long tradition in this
industry, Moores Drycleaning have moved
with the times. They now have an ecocleaning
machine which uses a solution of
plant extracts as its cleaning agent which is
far friendlier to the environment. In fact,
they have been leading greener approaches
to drycleaning as they have been recycling
for over 40 years, their plastic bags are
biodegradable and their coat-hangers are
manufactured from recycled plastic which
they encourage their customers to recycle and
return.
You can find them at 178 Papanui Road,
where they are open six days a week (closed
Sundays) or give them a call at 03 355 5942.
They will be happy to help.
