A modern garment care company built for everyday life in Portland.
CC Clean was founded by Drew and Ari Kells, Portland based entrepreneurs and new parents who saw firsthand how inefficient, inconsistent, and environmentally unfriendly traditional dry cleaning and laundry services had become.
Laundry is unavoidable. The experience does not need to be frustrating, slow, or outdated. We built CC Clean to combine modern cleaning technology, sustainability, and operational clarity in an industry that had not meaningfully evolved in decades.
To deliver a better experience, not just a cleaner garment.
For years, dry cleaning businesses operated with heavy chemical dependence, multi day turnaround cycles, and transactional customer interactions.
We believed customers deserved:
Faster processing
Lower chemical exposure
Clear pricing
Structured subscription options
A brand that feels modern and human
The real differentiator is not just the equipment. It is the experience. We are intentionally building something people trust with their everyday clothes, not just their special occasion items.
New customers receive 20 percent off their first order. We combine advanced Presso cleaning technology, defined processing timelines, transparent pricing, and structured subscription options.
CC Clean operates using advanced Presso cleaning technology designed to significantly reduce water use, energy consumption, and toxic chemical residue compared to traditional systems.
This approach allows us to maintain efficient production while being mindful of environmental impact.
Our system is suited for most garments other than leather. We focus on clothing and everyday textile care rather than large scale commercial linen processing. That focus supports consistent quality control and dependable turnaround.
Reduced Water Usage
Significantly less water than traditional methods.
We are building a business designed to scale responsibly. That means investing in better systems, maintaining operational discipline, and prioritizing consistency over shortcuts.
Our mission is to make garment care effortless, sustainable, and trustworthy while reducing the environmental impact of an essential service. We believe a company can be profitable and still operate with integrity toward customers, employees, and the Portland community.
