Best Cleaners

What’s the best way to treat a customer? When we first asked that question, it was 1954. William J. McCann, Jr., our founder, had just purchased Wolf’s Drycleaners in Middletown. With more than 10 years in the drycleaning business, he was ready for a fresh challenge. He began by holding a contest for a new business name. A child came up with “Best,” and the name stuck. William rewarded him with a new bicycle, and began the process of living up to a great name.

Since then, under the leadership of second generation owners Bill and Sue McCann, and now third generation President Shawn McCann, Best has expanded to 13 locations and a home delivery service with more convenient hours and distinctive offerings like same-day service and the environmentally-friendly GreenEarth cleaning method.
