About Us
Incorporated in 2024 and opened our first location in 2025 with a simple idea: laundromats should actually be good.
Our Story
Founded on a straightforward premise: self-service laundromats in Australia had not kept pace with how people actually live. We build laundromats where people already go, fit them with the best commercial equipment available, and design them so the time you spend there feels productive rather than wasted.
The founders
Tim & Simon
Two civil engineers who met working in renewable energy — a field Simon still works in today. That background shaped the business: reliable, well-built equipment, efficient use of water and energy, and spaces that are genuinely comfortable to spend time in.

What We Stand For
Every decision we make comes back to the same question: does this make the experience better for the person doing their laundry?
Modern Equipment
We fitted every location with commercial-grade Huebsch washers — 14kg, 18kg, and 27kg — and energy-efficient dryers, so you spend less time waiting and more time getting on with your day.
Accessible Hours
We're open 5am to midnight, seven days a week, including public holidays. Laundry should fit around your life, not the other way around.
Comfortable Spaces
Every location has air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, seating, and TVs. You can sit, work, or relax — not stand in a car park waiting.
Transparent Pricing
Flat pricing, no hidden fees. Free washing powder is included at every location. We also accept card, cash, and QR code — whatever works for you.
Sustainability
Our Huebsch machines are designed to use less water and energy per kilogram of laundry than home machines. Washing larger loads less often reduces consumption further. Where the building permits, we install solar panels and battery storage to reduce our reliance on the grid.
Where We're Headed
We're expanding across Victoria, with new locations planned for Maiden Gully, Warralily, Tarneit, Armstrong Creek Town Centre, and Lakes Entrance. Legana Town Centre will also mark our first Tasmanian location. Each store follows the same model: accessible locations, modern Huebsch equipment, and the amenities our current customers rely on.
Beyond our network of locations, we're investing in tools that make using a laundromat smarter. Our Washer Radar feature already shows real-time machine availability across all open locations, so you can check before you leave home and never arrive to find every machine taken.
We also work with commercial clients — accommodation providers, gyms, sports clubs, and hospitality businesses — who rely on consistent, high-volume laundry capacity. If that sounds like your business, get in touch.
