Buffalo, NY: March 2nd, 2011: A local company that has received recognition locally for years has now received national attention. Urban Valet Dry Cleaners' president Eric Pyne is featured in the March issue of National Clothesline, a trade publication for the garment care industry.

Clothesline has been a source of news and information to the industry for over 50 years and currently has over 30,000 subscribers nationally. The monthly publication features updates on industry regulations, machinery and equipment, marketing and sales advice, as well as profiles of successful companies.

Urban Valet has had quite a busy start to the year as it participated in many charitable events. In February, all three Urban Valet locations collected over 50 pair of eyeglasses to support Jesse's Children Health Mission in the Dominican Republic. In just a few weeks, Urban Valet will participate in a Prom Dress Drive event organized by Erie County Legislator Lynne Dixon. This will be the second year that Urban Valet will clean the dresses, and the first year that the store's locations will serve as a drop-off location as well. The collection will run March 28th
