Dry Cleaning
An independent dry cleaner on the downtown side of the Hope Slough.
Unit 20 at 45850 Yale Road sits on the western approach to the downtown, on the road that runs in to Five Corners where Yale, Young and Wellington all arrive at once. Yale Road is the old through route, and the addresses along it tend to be small plazas and single storey commercial units rather than the continuous shopfronts nearer the junction. Ultra Wash is one of them, on the downtown side of the Hope Slough.
Dry cleaning is a contracting trade nearly everywhere and Chilliwack has not escaped that, but the shops still operating here have a slightly different business from their equivalents in an office city. Alongside suits and formal wear there is real work in laundry, alterations and the heavy end: coveralls, workwear, and the sort of thing that comes off a farm or a job site rather than out of a wardrobe. A municipality where close to thirty per cent of economic activity is agricultural generates a great deal of that. Several operators in this category also take in tailoring, which matters if what you want is a garment altered rather than pressed. The shops themselves are concentrated in the downtown and the Sardis plazas, and pickup arrangements do the rest of the work in a municipality where plenty of households are nowhere near a shopfront.
Whether this particular shop handles alterations, industrial work or straight cleaning is not something the listing establishes, and neither are its hours. A phone number is published and no website is, so the number is the only channel this page offers, and those are quick questions to settle before turning up with an armful. Turnaround varies more in this trade than people assume, and same day service is never a safe assumption anywhere. The address is a unit in a numbered block rather than a standalone building, so it is worth reading the unit number off the sign rather than the street number alone when you get there.
