Williams Cleaners is a family-owned and locally-operated dry cleaning business that has proudly served the Lincoln community since its founding in September 1953 by Frank Williams. Over the years, the business has transitioned through generations, with Ron and Sharon Strough purchasing it in 1972. In 2000, the reins were handed over to their daughters, Debora Barton and Terri Winter, along with their son-in-law, Dave Winter. Today, the legacy continues with Terri and Dave's son, Tom, and his wife, Amber, actively involved in the operation, embodying the strong sense of family that defines the company.
With a commitment of over five decades, Williams Cleaners has adapted through various changes in the dry cleaning industry while maintaining a focus on excellent service. The company prides itself on its enduring connection to the local community, appreciating the loyalty and support of its customers over the years. The business currently operates six store locations, along with two drop sites in Lincoln's Hy-Vee grocery stores, providing a range of services to keep garments looking their best.
In addition to their dedication to quality service, Williams Cleaners is at the forefront of environmental responsibility. As Lincoln’s first and only GreenEarth® cleaner, they employ a unique cleaning process that uses pure liquid silicone, which is not only effective but also safe for the environment. The GreenEarth cleaning process eliminates the use of harsh chemicals, resulting in cleaner fabrics that are gentler on clothes and free from unpleasant odors. Williams Cleaners takes pride in doing their part for the environment while ensuring their customers receive high-quality care for their garments. Through a commitment to service and sustainability, Williams Cleaners continues to be a beloved institution in Lincoln.
