8 At Home Laundry Business Success Stories [2023]
When you think of starting a laundry business, you may think of the laundromat business with dozens of washing machines and dryers arranged in rows.
But do you know you can start an at-home laundry business?
How your business works is simple! The clients will leave their laundry outside their door for a scheduled pick-up and washing. Upon picking up, you can take the clothes to your home and wash then dry them. Then, you fold the clothes and return them to the client.
To start your own at-home laundry business, you will need a washer and dryer, a way to transport laundry from your clients, and a dedicated washing space. You will also need bag tags, a hanging scale, garment covers, and laundry bags or hampers.
For efficiency and convenience, you may invest in a laundry app where customers can request the service.
Here are some real life success stories of starting a at-home laundry business:
