Why More Moms are Using a Laundry Service

Life as a mom is busy.

You’re constantly juggling kids, work, the household, and an endless pile of laundry.

At Kean’s, we’ve noticed that more moms are choosing to opt out of dealing with laundry altogether, instead utilizing our Laundry Service!

But what is it that makes a professional laundry service just so attractive?

Laundry Services Save Time

Just how much time do moms spend on laundry? Thanks to a study done in 2016, we have an actual scientific answer:

Women spend an average of 17 minutes per day on laundry. That’s right about 2 hours per week. Or 104 hours per year on LAUNDRY!

Let’s give this crazy number even more context:

Assuming a 40 hour work week, that’s 2.5 weeks of full-time employment on laundry.

More and more moms are realizing they have better things to do. And they’re right.

Laundry services save time, giving you back hours every week that can be put to use on better things – whether it’s spending time with family or taking a break for yourself. Outsourcing the washing, drying, ironing, and folding for your entire family’s wardrobe, plus any household items that need a regular clean, is a huge time-suck totally taken care of.

Laundry Services are Super Convenient

A big misconception about Laundry Services is that they’re inconvenient. After all, the last thing a busy mom needs is yet ANOTHER thing to worry about on her schedule.

But this couldn’t be further from the truth!

At Kean’s, we’ve worked hard to create a laundry service that works HOWEVER and WHENEVER is convenient for you.

Laundry Pick Up & Delivery: Using our Laundry Pickup and Delivery service means you don’t even have to leave your home. Once you’re on the schedule, you simply leave a bag of dirty clothes out for us to pick up, and we’ll bring back your clothes cleaned, folded, and ready to put away. Combining free pickup and delivery with our laundry service is the epitome of convenience for moms in Baton Rouge.

Drop Off & Pick Up: Whether your way to work or school pickup, laundry drop off and pick up takes less than 2 minutes of your time. And with 6 convenient Kean’s locations around Baton Rouge, you won’t have to go out of your way, either.

Drive Thru: For moms who don’t want to get out of the car, several Kean’s locations offer drive thru for your laundry services.

Starting a laundry service doesn’t need to be a hassle or a burden, and more moms than ever are realizing that the convenience of someone else doing this chore is absolutely worth it.

Laundry Services get your Clothes Cleaner than Home Machines

Have you ever run your kid’s outfit through the wash and dryer just to realize not all of the dirt and stains came out? Even worse – now, those stains are set in the fabric, and aren’t going anywhere.

Kids make messes, and the simple fact is that professional equipment is going to clean those messes better than home equipment.

When you use a laundry service, the people washing your clothes go above and beyond. They also carefully sort and wash each fabric according to best practices, using different water temperatures and detergents, which many moms just don’t have time to do at home.

Laundry Services are Surprisingly Affordable

Even though it sounds like an over-indulgent luxury, laundry services can be surprisingly affordable!

Pricing models vary depending on the laundry service provider you choose, but at Kean’s, we simply price per pound. Extras like Pickup and Delivery are included, so there’s no unexpected upcharges.

Professional laundry services can also extend the life of your clothes – both by washing them with specialty machines and detergents, removing stains, and mending areas as needed. Longer lasting and better cared for clothes mean you won’t need to replace core pieces of your closet as often, resulting in even more cash savings!

Laundry Services are a form of Self Care

Moms are choosing laundry services as a form of self care – and it makes sense!

The mental load that moms carry on every day is massive, and this burden is frequently overlooked and underappreciated. When basic chores like laundry are outsourced, it’s one less thing that you have to worry about on a daily basis.

And you can’t underestimate how freeing it is to have all of that TIME back – time that you can use on yourself, with your kids, or any way that you please.
