Frequently Asked Questions

What items can I include in my laundry? โ–ผ

We accept any clothing that is safe for machine washing and tumble drying โ€” t-shirts, jeans, underwear, socks, towels, bed linens, and similar everyday items.

Please do NOT include:

  • Silk, cashmere, wool, or lace
  • "Dry clean only" or "hand wash only" items
  • Leather, suede, or faux leather
  • Items with beads, sequins, or loose decorations
  • Suits, blazers, kimono, or structured garments
  • Shoes, bags, or non-clothing items

Please check care labels before submitting. We are not responsible for damage to items that are not suitable for machine washing. See our Terms of Service for full details.

How do you measure weight and handle extra charges? โ–ผ

We weigh your laundry at pickup using a calibrated scale and send you a photo of the reading for full transparency.

Your base plan includes up to 3kg. If your laundry exceeds this by 500g or more, an additional per-kg charge applies. We'll send you a payment link before we start washing โ€” no surprises.

If you decline the additional charge, we'll wash the 3kg covered by your base payment and return the rest unwashed.

What detergent do you use? โ–ผ

We use a high-quality, eco-friendly liquid detergent that is gentle on fabrics and skin. It's fragrance-light and suitable for sensitive skin.

If you have specific allergies or preferences, let us know via WhatsApp when you book and we'll do our best to accommodate.

How do I hand over my laundry? โ–ผ

Two easy options:

  • Hotel front desk โ€” Leave your bag at the front desk with your name. Our driver will collect it and deliver it back the same way.
