I'm fortunate to be able to live in a nice area of Panama city. One of the luxuries of living in this area is having easy access to many conveniences (gas station, pharmacy, shopping mall, restaurants, dry cleaners, etc).
Near my place, there are 3 dry cleaners. Two of them are Chinese "hole in the walls" and the other is pretty modern and high tech. I used to go the the Chinese ones because the prices were about $1 per shirt. However, I noticed that they didn't do a good job of pressing my clothes. In other words, my clothes looked rumpled and a little wrinkled once they gave them back to me.
After many disappointments, I decided to try the higher end dry cleaner. This place is more expensive and charges about $2.40 per shirt. The benefit of this place is they send you a text message when your clothes are ready AND they have a 24 hour self service window. With this self-service window, you enter your code and then the machine finds your clothes and delivers it to the window.
I could see something like this being in Japan, but never expected to see it here. I never even seen anything like this in the US.
