I highly recommend James Island Cleaners. Things are always well done and they are prompt that's what I admire about them. When they say it's going to be done it's done. The staffs would take my cleaning and I pick it up or they would deliver to me and it's very politely done.

I wasn't sure who to choose on James Island, so I tried James Island Cleaners first. The did a good job, fair price and had it done in short order. I'm trying Lyerly's next to see who that goes.

I have been going to James Island dry cleaners for about a year now.  I have had several undesirable experiences with them over that time.  I forgave them the first couple of times but this last incident left me speechless.
- I have taken my duvet in twice for dry cleaning.  Both times they have misplaced it and it has taken about three weeks for me to get them back.  Each time the manager calls and apologizes (which is so nice and is why I continued to go).  The duvets once I get them back look great but the time delay and misplacement of these items is not ideal.
- Here is the incident that was a game changer: I wait till I have a substantial amount of drycleaning to take a load in.  I spend about $350-400 a month on dry cleaning so I would classify myself as a decent regular customer.  The last time I went in I had all my clothes together and the young "manager" behind the counter was rude from the moment I walked in.  I have never been spoken to the way she spoke to me and normally, I am not one to bite my tongue, but was so taken back that I was absolutely speechless.  She was so defensive and while I understand everyone has a bad day, her behavior was inexcusable.  Two of my dresses had dog hair on them (one of the reasons I needed them cleaned) and she was disgusted.  She threw my clothes behind her and continued to rant about how she "might work at a dry cleaners but is not here to do my dirty work" then proceeded to speak to me with that tone as she took my information.  As I left, trying very hard to stay calm and just breath, I asked if there was a manager I could speak to and she proceeded to tell me her name, how to spell her name, and her phone number to call anytime.  I was so disappointed in the treatment at this family-owned local business I have been supportive of for the last year that I would not even go to pick up my clothes.  I sent my husband who also experience the negativity of this young lady.
I will never go back.  Very disappointed.

I'm very happy with the work that they've done and their prices are reasonable. Things always look well when they come from the cleaners. They're prompt, they'll do extras when you need it, and if you take something in and want it in the morning they'll have it for you. I would recommend them very highly.
