dry clean ? dip in woolite and drip dry or lay it out flat/ air out

First, there's no point to cleaning wool too often. It's not good for the wool, nor is it necessary.

I'll send my kilt to the cleaners every 10 years or so. Otherwise, I air it out, brush any shmutz out of it if need be and hang it up.

When I do get it cleaned, I take it to a kilt shop and have them use the cleaner they send their kilts to post rental. It's worth paying the money to have the kilt basted, cleaned and professionally pressed. ($40 or so bucks here). I'd go directly to the cleaner if I knew who it was.

Flemington isn't that far from Old Bridge. Give this guy a call and ask where he sends his kilts to be cleaned after he rents them. He might just tell you!

I'm not sure if it's the kilt shop or the cleaners that baste the kilt, but if you're handy with a needle and thread, you can always baste it yourself and then take it to any drycleaner.
