What happened to it? / Nothing's wrong, it just needs a proper clean

Getting a stuffed animal properly cleaned

Cleaning on its own is harder to buy than it looks, because a lot of this trade treats it as something that comes with a repair rather than a job you can order by itself. The listings below say which is which, and there is a fair amount of home-washable work in here that does not need any of them.

The other 93, in order

Same checks, lower down the order. Where they are and how you hand it over matter more than our ordering does, so both are here.

Who we ruled out for this, and why

12 of the 108 are listed on this site and are deliberately not above. Ruling somebody out is a claim, so here is each one with the reason, and you can disagree with it.

  • Works through your insurer after a fire or a flood, and invoices the claim. There is no way to hire them directly

Questions people ask

How many repair shops can take a clean on its own, with no repair attached?
96 of the 108 we hold in the United States could take this on, and 12 could not. Every one of them is named on this page, including the ones we ruled out and why. Across both countries we have read 185 businesses in total, so if you have seen a bigger number quoted somewhere, that is the one.
What does it cost?
Cleaning only: $10-$200, from 9 published prices. All read from repair shops' own public pages in August 2026, across 33 individual prices from 7 businesses. Most of this trade publishes nothing at all.
Will they insure it while they have it?
Almost certainly they have not said. Of every repair shop we have read in both countries, two have written anything down about losing or damaging an item. Nobody has been asked the question directly, including by us. Ask before you send anything you could not replace, and get the answer in writing.
