25.01.2022 Santas been at the Laundromat getting all cleaned up for his special delivery run! Hope youve all been nice :)

20.01.2022 Our stores remain open during these challenging times and we ask that you exercise social distancing practices, such as waiting in your car while your laundry is being done and generally observing the 1.5m distancing from each other at all times. Authorities advise that we should wash our clothes in hot water even more regularly than we normally would and then tumble dry to kill the Covid19 virus. Our hot water is heated to 60 degrees and the gas dryers reach approximately 85 degrees which is sufficient to eliminate the virus within a few minutes. Thank you for your help and stay safe.

19.01.2022 Change Machine Update. We apologise sincerely for the inconvenience of having the change machine out of order as we arrange a better solution since the recent robbery. In the meantime, the new snack vending machine will dispense coins as well as something to keep the worms at bay :).

18.01.2022 Tip for the day - sort clothing for the dryer too! If all the washing machines have completed the cycle, lighter clothing and sheets can be dried together and heavier items such as jeans and/or towels, depending on how many, can be dried together. The lighter clothing will dry faster than the heavier ones and spare change and energy can be saved by doing this.

18.01.2022 All back in business at Highgate Hill, Energex has finally sorted the problem and got us, and all the others without power in the area back in business. We sincerely hope our customers havent been too badly affected.

14.01.2022 Thanks to everyone for your patience over this wet Australia Day weekend! The store was extremely busy with all the people trying to cope with their washing and drying in these extreme conditions and then the power went out. Still waiting for Energex crews to help us get back into business - will keep updates coming.

13.01.2022 Sorting you laundry will give better results! Sort your washable laundry by color. Whites, pastels, light gray and white background prints will go in one pile. Deep colored clothes black, red, navy, brown, dark gray go in another pile. Then -... Sort each pile one more time by type of fabric. For instance, in the white/light colored pile separate towels and sheets from apparel. In the dark colors, separate t-shirts and jeans from lighter weight items like blouses and dress shirts. If you have dark towels or blankets, separate them from clothes to reduce lint, never wash lint producing fabrics and lint attracting fabrics together! Washing by color and fabric type allows you to use the correct water temperatures and keeps drying cycles simple.

13.01.2022 We have gathered research and advice from various sources:- People who rely on commercial laundromats or shared apartment services neednt be worried about additional risks of contamination from clothing, according to Dr. Lee Riley, professor and chair of the Division of Infectious Disease and Vaccinology at Berkeley Public Health. "Detergents and hot dryers are good for killing pathogens. Thats why hospital laundries are effective in cleaning bedding, etc.,"Miryam ...Wahrman, a biology professor at William Paterson University and the author of "The Hand Book: Surviving in a Germ-Filled World" . With detergent, the virus would be killed very quickly, and with a dryer, the heat would kill it. While some people may wait to do their laundry until theyre faced with big piles of it, it is recommended regularly washing your clothes, especially if you are still required to report to work or have been in crowded areas. Along with frequent hand washing, the (Center for Disease Control) said make frequent laundering a routine Bleach and other disinfectants will kill the virus, so will soap on your clothes as well as on your person, which is why experts have continually emphasized the importance of frequent hand-washing to prevent infection. As a general rule, you can protect yourself and others from infection by always practicing good hand and respiratory hygiene, including:- cleaning hands with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rubs - covering your nose and mouth with a tissue or flexed elbow when coughing or sneezing - avoiding contact with anyone who has symptoms such as fever, a cough, sore throat, fatigue, and shortness of breath. - staying home if you are unwell.

12.01.2022 Doing laundry is a chore that some people hate because it can be time consuming. The answer? A trip to the laundromat because the time it takes to wash, rinse and dry four loads of clothes simultaneously is less than the time it will take to wash two loads at home! Why not free up your valuable time for something more enjoyable?

11.01.2022 Our new laundry token vending machine takes all forms of card and contactless payments! And good old fashioned cash as well. Why not give it a try

10.01.2022 Confused about all those funny little symbols used to tell you how to care for your clothes? Heres a guide to help you decipher them :)

10.01.2022 Todays laundry tip - dont crowd the washing machine! Modern washing machines are bigger than ever and its tempting to cram in "just one more" thing but even large-capacity machines have their limits. Stuffing a washer to the brim may seem like it will save money but when its too full, water and detergent wont reach everything, dirt gets trapped, and clothing doesnt get clean and may even get damaged.

07.01.2022 Make your trip to the Laundromat easier - Always check the machine before you load in your clothes and remove any items that the person before you left behind. An extra sock isnt a big deal, but a rogue tube of lipstick or pair of greasy overalls could cause a problem!

04.01.2022 How to save money at the Laundromat? Many of us use way too much detergent in our laundry, and while you could make your own at a fraction of the price, the easiest way to save money is to just use less. You know how much soap the manufacturer recommends using? Use less than that. A lot less. Your clothes will be just as clean and youll save lots of money
