Laundromat Etiquette

Ever wonder what the correct 'etiquette' is when using a Laundromat?

Here's our Top 10 : 

1.  Stay with your washing, so as soon as it is finished you can remove it and let others use the machine.
2.  Don't wash animal rugs, blankets, towels in the machines.  Besides being illegal, it is just plain dangerous to those who suffer allergies or asthma.
3.  Don't wash greasy or oily rags in the machines.  These can leave a residue that then crosses over to the clothes of the next user.
4.  Always check your pockets for pens, nails, screws, hairclips, badges etc.  These can get stuck in the machines and cause damage or the next person can injure themselves on them if they poke up.
5.  Don't shake your grassy or hair embedded laundry out over the floor.  This makes the laundry dirty for others and also can put grass/hair in to other machines or the fold table.
6.  Put your laundry baskets behind or on top of the machines or under the 'Fold Table' so others have room to move around the laundry.
7.  If you eat in the Laundromat, please try not to spill food or drink on the floor, 'Fold Table' or chairs....and always throw your leftovers/packaging in the bin.
8.  Don't smoke in the Laundromat or just outside, move the chair away a bit - so non smokers are not affected by the second hand smoke.
9.  Don't bring your pets in to the Laundromat.  We love animals, however our laundromat is not suitable for animals and other customers may not feel comfortable with your pet inside.
10.  Finally....try and clean up after yourself, detergent or powder spills.....it means the laundry stays cleaner for everyone.

So that's it, those things help us - help you find our laundry clean, friendly and ready to use.
