How to Prepare Your Wardrobe for Summer: Dry Cleaning Tips for a Fresh Seasonal Transition
By Mulberrys
As temperatures rise and the days grow longer, it’s officially time to welcome summer—and that means giving your wardrobe a seasonal refresh. At Mulberrys, we know how important it is to keep your clothes looking their best during the warmer months. Whether you’re storing winter coats or reviving summer dresses, here’s how to get your closet ready with the help of our expert dry cleaning and laundry services in Minneapolis, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Washington D.C.

1. Declutter and Donate
Before bringing out your summer staples, take some time to declutter. Sort through your wardrobe and donate any clothing you haven’t worn in the past year. Not only does this free up closet space, but it also makes room for fresh styles and helps others in need.
2. Dry Clean Winter Items Before Storing
Wool coats, sweaters, and scarves shouldn’t go into storage without a proper clean. Body oils, stains, and invisible spills can attract moths and cause long-term damage. Drop them off at Mulberrys or schedule a free pickup to ensure they’re clean and preserved for next season.
3. Freshen Up Your Summer Wardrobe
Your go-to summer pieces—lightweight blouses, polos, sundresses, linen pants—can look tired after months in storage. Our professional dry cleaning removes dust, creases, and lingering odors, giving your garments a crisp, fresh look just in time for summer outings.
4. Watch Out for Common Summer Stains
Sunscreen, sweat, grass, and barbecue stains are summer staples (and not in a good way). Our stain removal experts are trained to treat the toughest seasonal stains while protecting delicate fabrics. Don’t let a spot ruin your favorite summer look—let Mulberrys handle it.
5. Make It Easy With Free Pickup & Delivery
Between weekend trips, family gatherings, and outdoor fun, laundry should be the last thing on your mind. With Mulberrys’ laundry subscription options and free pickup & delivery, you can enjoy clean clothes all season long—without the hassle. Whether you’re in Minneapolis-St. Paul, San Francisco, or D.C., we’ve got you covered.
