Paris Cleaners & Laundry

Paris Cleaners and Laundry began operation as a family run organization in October of 1903. At that time the company was known as Metropolitan Dry Cleaners and Steam Garment Dying Works. It was located at 113 S. Rose Street in Kalamazoo. In 1905 the plant where the clothes were cleaned burned down in a fire, and was moved to O’Neal Street.

The store, where orders were taken was moved to 242 W. Main which is now West Michigan. In 1939 the name was changed to Paris Cleaners and Dyers, and in 1953 to Paris Cleaners Inc. Since 1956 Paris Cleaners has operated in the facility on the corner of Crosstown Parkway and Westnedge Ave. in Kalamazoo. Wilbert & Elaine Weidenaar bought the business in 1991, and own it to this day. Paris Cleaners now has 6 locations throughout the Southwest Michigan area. We also have free pick up and delivery service that serves areas outside of Kalamazoo.

In 2007 Paris Cleaners & Laundry joined Fabric Restoration Service Team, & relocated its production and administrative offices to a larger facility in South Portage on Vanderbilt. FRSTeam by Paris Cleaners specializes in garment restoration for the insurance and restoration industry.
