Laundry Pickup and Delivery services have become more and more popular in recent years, with more everyday people outsourcing this time-consuming chore. But how do you know it’s time to make the jump? And is it actually worth it?
Let’s break down what a laundry pickup and delivery service includes, answer some of the most common questions our customers ask about laundry pickup and delivery, and help you decide whether or not it’s time for YOU to consider it.
How Does a Laundry Pickup and Delivery Service Work?
Laundry pickup and delivery services aim to simplify your life by handling all your dirty laundry – literally!
At Kean’s, we work with you to decide on a regular day of the week for laundry pick up. Once you’re on the schedule, you simply place any dirty clothes in the bag that we provide, and leave them out for our team to pick up.
Once your bag has been picked up, we bring them to Kean’s, where we wash, mend, press, and fold or hang all of your items.
Our delivery driver then brings them back to you, leaving fresh clothes on your doorstep!
How Much Does a Laundry Pickup and Delivery Service Cost?
Prices can range significantly based on your provider!
Some laundry providers charge based on mileage, frequency, or even how dirty your items are, in addition to the regular cost of services.
At Kean’s, we keep things simple by keeping laundry pickup and delivery free, and only charging the regular price of our services. No upcharges for miles driven or frequency!
When you are deciding on a laundry pickup and delivery provider, make sure to thoroughly understand their pricing model, and look out for hidden fees.
Will My Clothes Be Washed With Someone Else’s?
Never!
Each customer’s clothes are processed completely separate, from sorting to washing to drying and folding.
At Kean’s, your clothes won’t be mixed with other people’s articles during your laundry pickup and delivery service, so you don’t have to worry about someone else potentially having some of your items in their bag when when they’re delivered clean!
How Much Time does Laundry Pickup and Delivery Save?
The average person spends 4.5 hours per week doing laundry. That adds up to 234 hours every year, or almost 10 full days!
And if you regularly have speciality services done like Dry Cleaning, that average doesn’t even count the drive time and mileage that you’re putting on your car.
Completely outsourcing this chore by enrolling in a local Laundry Pickup and Delivery service can be a huge burden off of your shoulders.
Is There a Minimum Order Requirement?
This may vary based on your provider.
At Kean’s, we believe in making laundry services as convenient as possible, which is why we don’t have a minimum order requirement. Whether you have a single delicate item or a full load of laundry, we are here to help
How Are My Clothes Protected During Transport?
For pickup, we provide a special dirty clothes bag where you can safely place your items. Once cleaned, everything is bagged and protected for the return journey. This way, your clothes come back to you as fresh and pristine as they were when you first bought them!
Do I Need To Be Home for a Scheduled Laundry Pickup or Delivery?
No, you don’t need to be home for us to pick up or deliver your laundry! We’re all about simplifying your life, so you can go about your day knowing that your laundry is being taken care of. Just leave your dirty clothes bag in the designated spot, and we’ll handle the rest. We’ll make sure that your cleaned garments are returned safely and securely, ready for you to enjoy.
What Services Are Offered for Pickup and Delivery?
At Kean’s, almost all of our services are available as part of our Laundry Pickup and Delivery program. However, these three main services are the most popular:
Wash & Fold: Ideal for your everyday laundry needs. Just bag it, and we’ll return it freshly washed, dried, and neatly folded.
Dress Shirt & Pant Service: Perfect for professionals who need their work attire pristinely pressed and ready to wear. Once the items are carefully washed, we then meticulously inspect for any areas that need repair, like loose threads, and then finally press and hang the garments. They’re always returned looking perfectly crisp and wrinkle-free.
Dry Cleaning: For those special care items, from suits and evening dresses to delicate fabrics that require a gentle touch, dry cleaning makes sure your garments are impeccably clean and maintained. Many of our clients have their suits on a weekly dry cleaning pickup and delivery schedule!
