Laundry services offer washing, drying, and folding for customers who may not have access to a washer and dryer or who do not want to do laundry themselves. Services vary in price and may offer additional services such as dry cleaning and ironing. It is important to consider delivery times, types of linens handled, and competitive pricing before choosing a service. Recommendations from friends and family can also be helpful.

A laundry service is a business that does laundry for its customers. There are different styles of laundry service, with varying fees. Laundry services are especially popular with very busy people and people and organizations that have a high volume of laundry, along with people who just don’t like doing laundry. Many communities have laundry services, which may be listed in the address book or available through laundromats.

In a classic laundry service, laundry is taken from residences and businesses at regular intervals. People usually pay by weight for their laundry, with the laundry being washed, dried and folded. Some laundry services may offer additional services such as spot treatment, dry cleaning, and ironing.

It is also possible to leave your linen with a laundry service. Many laundromats allow customers to leave their laundry for cleaning, even loading by weight. Customers can choose from an a la carte menu which includes folding, ironing and mending services. These services often offer fast response times for customers in a hurry.

Some laundry services cater to specific types of customers. Diaper services, for example, only handle cloth diapers for their customers, dropping a load of freshly laundered diapers every time they pick up a dirty load. Undergraduate Laundry Services operates dorm laundry for undergraduate students, which may be limited to service-owned linens and towels or extended to all student laundry. Other laundry services prefer to work with industrial clients such as restaurants, inns, hospitals and animal shelters. Some are specifically certified to handle biohazardous linens, often charging an extra fee for hazardous substances.

When considering a laundry service, there are several things to think about. For people who don’t own washers and dryers, the alternative is a laundromat. Laundry services are convenient, but they can also be very expensive and it may be a good idea to evaluate laundromat services before committing to a laundry service. Delivery times are also an important consideration, as are the types of linens a service is willing to handle. Finally, it is highly recommended that you get competitive quotes from several laundry services, for people who live in regions where more than one service is active.

People who use laundry services are sometimes willing to offer advice and recommendations. Asking friends and family to see who uses a service is a good idea, as these people may be able to provide advice on the best service to use and things to watch out for.
