Self-service laundry, often referred to as a laundromat, is a facility where individuals can wash and dry their clothes using coin-operated machines. Customers bring their own laundry and pay for the use of washing machines and dryers, typically available in various sizes to accommodate different loads. These facilities often provide laundry supplies, such as detergent and fabric softener, for purchase.
In addition to convenience, self-service laundry offers flexibility, as many locations operate extended hours or even 24/7. This allows customers to do their laundry at their own pace and schedule. Some laundromats also provide amenities like seating areas, free Wi-Fi, and vending machines for snacks and drinks.
