We look forward to welcoming our laundromat community to two activities in 2024: a craft club every other Sunday afternoon and a book club every other Friday evening. See details below!
Loads of Love and Clean Closets
With thanks to the whole team at Wash Street for a year of Loads of Love, but especially to our customers! You’ve cleaned out your closets and donated clothes, blankets, and other items to our neighbors in need.
Washer Spring Clean!
Whenever we talk with friends about Wash Street, they usually ask for laundry tips. And most of the time we say: you are probably using too much soap. Cut back on detergent to a tablespoon per load and your clothing, your washer, and your budget will be grateful!
But another big learning for us has been how to take care of your washing machine. Our machines at Wash Street work very hard, sometimes from 8am - 11pm every day, so we learned a thing or two about machine repair. Some of the most common error codes on washers are caused by drainage issues. The most common culprits are baby socks and thong underwear, but it’s good practice to clean your drains out on a regular basis. If you already are getting a low water flow error code, have a bucket ready when you open the drain! Your hard-working washer will thank you!
Never Do Laundry Again and Save!
You save hours and dollars every week with a recurring Wash Street pickup, with no penalty for skipping a week when you are on vacation or just don’t have enough for a pickup. You can sign up for your repeat pickup and pause or cancel it anytime in your Profile section of the app or website.
Looking toward 2023!
We sat down with Kate Luczko of People, Place, Purpose podcast last month to talk about laundry tips (stop using so much detergent in your washing machine) and what’s next for Wash Street in 2023. Listen anywhere you get your podcasts or head over to their website:People Place Purpose
Loads of Love
Since August, we have been able to open our washers and dryers up to neighbors in need of clean clothing. In addition to a free load or two of laundry, we also provide gently used clothing that our customers donate. If you know someone in need of clean clothes, please have them give our office a call at 603-623-9587. If you have gently used clothing to donate, schedule a pickup and let us know in the notes that you will have a separately labeled bag of donations. We take care of cleaning, folding, and hanging it, and are so grateful to our community for supporting our Loads of Love.
