Our history
1934 - Bernard Butler
Bernie founded Hudson Cleaners in 1934 when his side business of taking in dry cleaning began to make more money than being a barber.
1934 - Orignal Plant
The corner of Hudson and Cleveland Ave. was the site of the main plant for almost 50 years.
1934 - Delivery
An early influence on the current delivery business, Hudson Cleaners also offered free delivery service to northeast Columbus.
1981 - Discovery
Brian Butler helps scout out the new plant location in 1981. We’re the first on the Southeast corner of Sawmill and I-270.
1982 - Ground Breaking
The footers are dug and poured. We are right on schedule to be open in March 1982!
1983 - Grand Opening
We’re open for business. Right from the beginning volume grows as business pours in……
1985 - Working Hard
Jim and Jimmy Jr. keep the machines running all day long. Everywhere you look this is a ‘family’ business.
1986 - Getting Involved
In every way, Dubin Cleaners and the employees participate in community events. Remember the three lane bridge in old Dublin? More about us in the community.
1987 - Giving Back
Philanthropy becomes a large part of the company mission. We give back to Dublin and N.W. Columbus, the community responsible for our success.
1990 - Our First Year
The sun sets on our successful first year. Bob Evans, Bank One, and the Dublin AMC Theatre are still a long time away from developing Tuller Rd.
1992 - New Locations
In order to better serve NW Columbus we expand to Linworth, S. Dubin, and many more.
1992 - More Space
The ’80s and ’90s saw more than five additions and renovations to our plant.
1992 - New Equipment
Before the building is finished, employees train on new state of the art laundry equipment. This is the first of many new equipment upgrades.
1993 - Prestigious Aware
Dublin recognizes Margaret and Greg as Business Persons of the Year. They are recognized with this great honor for growing the business leaps and bounds along with strong community support.
1994 - New Corporate Offices
In 1994 growth caused another construction project. New office suites, board room, and major additions to the delivery receiving area make much more space at the plant.
1995 - Delivery Business
Another investment pays off with great vision. Offering free home and office delivery fills trucks on six routes a week.
1996 - Progress So Far
…for now at least. This is the current look of our corporate buiding, at least until we outgrow it again.

Very friendly. Dry cleaning was finished a day early. Well wrapped. Although basically no wait, the coffee offered is a nice touch. Don
Dublin Cleaners consistently delivers great customer service as well as high quality dry cleaning. Their staff – from the owner of the business to the folks who serve customers at their stores go out of their way to ensure a high level of customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Dublin Cleaners.
I have a designer scarf that needed dry cleaning. They did a wonderful job and ensured that the rolled edges stayed in their original condition.
Always friendly on time service
Pleasant professional employees. I always count on you for my dry cleaning. You bundled my grandmother’s clothes from the early 1900s. You just dry cleaned two dresses for a family wedding have trusted you over many years to do the expert work then and now. Thank you!
