If you are a avid-fan of FRIENDS, you would remember the first time Rachel and Ross kissed. It was in a simple self-service laundry shop wherein customers put their clothes inside the machines. The machines would wash their clothes once they filled its slot with coins.
In the most parts of the world, this self-service laundry shop is called laundromats while in United Kingdom, they call it launderettes. When this technology graced Singapore, people welcomed it with open arms.
Laundromats enables you to save time and money compared to the “traditional” laundry services. If you are rushing to have your business coat washed and dried, go to a laundromat! It will only cost you several minutes to get it done rather than the average turnaround time of 5 working days in other laundry shops.
With more than a hundred laundromats in Singapore, travelers can also take advantage of their affordable and pay-as-you-use prices.
