1. Absentee Ownership

Typically, the owner of the coin laundry does not have to run the store themselves. The owner of a coin laundry should be responsible for all administrative duties, collecting money, and minor repairs.

2. Less Work

It is not labor intensive- let the machines do all the work.

3. Not a Sales Position

There is no personal selling involved and no perishable inventory to stock. Vending soap can last in your storage room for years.

4. Recession-Resistant

A coin laundry provides a service that is recession resistant because clean clothes are a daily necessity.

5. Pre-Paid Service

Customers pay in advance with cash (no accounts receivable or bills to collect).

6. Clean Clothes Never Go Out of Style

Coin laundry is an established industry – it has been around for many years and is not a fad.

7. Consistent Income

There are only slight fluctuations in business of about 10-20% depending on the location.

8. Few or No Employees Needed

Self-service coin laundries require an employee to stop in a few times a day to clean. If your coin Laundry has a wash and fold service, one employee can attend the store.

9. Easy-to-Run

No special skills, training, higher education degrees, or experience necessary. Mechanical skills are helpful, but not necessary. Many of the manufacturers and local distributors offer training and support.
