Out of work? ZIPS offers free dry cleaning

Dry cleaning is one of the first things consumers give up when money is short. But even if you’re out of work, there’s no reason not to look professional and wrinkle-free on your job interview.

ZIPS, a dry cleaner chain expanding on the East Coast, says it will offer free dry cleaning to the unemployed. It promises to clean up to three garments each week. The deal runs through the end of the first quarter.

ZIPS doesn’t want to be taking to the cleaners, either. You must provide proof that you are out of a job and looking for work.

ZIPS has a variety of locations in the area, including Towson, Pikesville, Columbia, Laurel, Timonium, Pasadena and  Annapolis. You can find ZIPS in Baltimore at 701 Washington Boulevard.
