I think they were allowed to be open in NJ also, but my normal one was closed Wednesday for some reason. The owner isn't even typically there most of the time. She shows up to empty the coins and then leaves. She has a worker who opens the shop every morning at 6, then he comes back at ten at night and mops the floors and closes the place. It was weird seeing it closed. It could have been a local township decision also. We tend to be very heavily regulated around here.

Dry cleaners and laundromats in Illinois are considered "essential."

I went to one today because the comforter really needed washing. There were 3 other people there. We all started our stuff then went to our vehicles. Even our vehicles were parked with spaces between. Had to use the restroom and the TP had been stolen. Got some tissues from our truck, and left some in the restroom.
