If you're looking to save a few, you can wash your button down shirts like normal shirts. Dry them for ten minutes, put on a clothes hanger, (releases the wrinkles) and hang on the shower rod.
Just don't forget to set an alarm or you will have smaller shirts.
I did this for years when I was trying to save a buck. I went back to it during covid as I'm not wearing shirt/tie that much anymore. I find it's also a good way to keep my hoodies in good shape, etc...

I'm not sure my dry cleaning lady is still in business.. last time I saw her was Feb 2020. All my suits and shirts are still hanging in their plastic.

It's been a while due to covid, then getting fat and not fitting in my nicer dress clothes and offices going more casual while we "partially return".
I wash my shirts by themselves on a gentle cycle. Hang dry and have a Rowenta steam iron that will get out any wrinkle. They seem to last that way. The dryer takes a toll on them otherwise.
Wool slacks do not need to be cleaned every wear. Wool is antimicrobial. A quick press with the steam iron and they are fresh for another wear. Still needs cleaning sometimes, but that cuts your bill down by a ton.
