Laundry day, once a dreaded chore, can now be a thing of the past with the convenience of laundry pickup and delivery services. To make the most of this modern luxury, a little preparation goes a long way.
Before your laundry embarks on its cleaning adventure, ensure it's ready for pickup. Sort your clothes into lights, darks, and delicates. Empty pockets to prevent any surprises for the washing machine. And if there are stubborn stains, point them out to the service provider. If they do not provide this service, you may want to spritz and treat those stains at home. We recommend treating stains as soon as the garment enters the hamper.
If preparing an order that includes items for washing and items for dry cleaning, bag and tag them separately. This helps the laundry services provider know can be washed and what needs to be taken to their dry cleaning partner or associate.
Clear laundry bags are ideal but kitchen trash bags will suffice. Don't forget to label your bags with your name and any specific instructions, especially if your items are separated in tandem with any special instructions for washing and drying.
When you’re not home, clear communication is key. Specify a secure location for your laundry, such as a covered porch or a locked gate where the driver can find it and leave it. If necessary, provide access details. When you place an order with The Laundry Room, you can provide these details in the special instructions fields when following the prompts. Ordering is easy.
By following these tips, you’ll enjoy the benefits of a laundry service without the hassle and create so much more free time for yourself. With The Laundry Room, you can use this service as needed when you need it most. We offer a special lower rate for those who sign up for recurring service, too.
