Dry cleaners in Chatham
Around the Pentagon, the Historic Dockyard and St Mary's Island. We collect from ME4 and ME5, clean in water rather than solvent, and do the mending in the same workshop.

Oceans Green is the dry cleaner Chatham households use for suits, everyday garments, laundry and repairs. Everything is handled at our Gillingham workshop, a short run along the A289 and the waterfront, typically about ten minutes off-peak.
The van covers the town centre around the Pentagon, the streets off the Brook, Chatham Intra, Luton, the roads down to the Historic Dockyard and St Mary’s Island, and out towards Walderslade and Lordswood. Drop the bag in at The Boathouse if you are passing, or we will collect from a ME4 or ME5 address.
What Chatham sends us
Suits and work clothes, the weekly wash, school uniform, duvets that will not fit a home machine, and alterations. Everything is cleaned in water with biodegradable detergent, so it comes back softer and fresher to wear. Most pieces are back within 48 hours of when we have them.
Do you collect from Chatham?
Yes. Book a collection with a ME4 or ME5 postcode and we will confirm the next available day. Collection and drop-back are free on orders of £45 or more. If it is easier on the day, drop the bag in at The Boathouse instead; Chatham to Gillingham is a short drive and there is parking at the unit.

Common questions
Can you clean a suit?
Yes. We inspect the jacket and trousers, clean them, and press them back onto a hanger.
Tell us about stains and previous repairs when you leave the suit. Leather and suede go through a different process, which we set with you at the counter.
Can you clean a coat?
Yes. Coats and everyday jackets go through eco dry cleaning, then back on a hanger. Most are back within 48 hours of when we have them.
When you hand the coat over, tell us if the lining has started to come away or if somebody has repaired it before. Marks too. Leather and suede wait for a conversation before we agree to take them.
Do you collect from Chatham?
Yes. Chatham is on the collection round, and we do the work here in Gillingham, a short run along the waterfront.
Book with a Chatham postcode, or drop the bag in at The Boathouse if that is easier on the day. We confirm the collection day when you book.
How fast is the turnaround?
Most cleaning is back within 48 hours of when we have the garments. That clock starts when you drop them in or when we collect, not when you submit the booking form.
Same-day work is possible when we can take it; ask when you book. Wedding dresses get their own timescale, agreed when we see the dress.
