Barber and GroomerTowel Laundry
Towels, capes and smocks for small shops, with nothing to commit to.
Barbershops and grooming salons go through towels all day, and many have no room for a machine. Shake out the hair, bag the towels and order. A local Laundry Pro collects them and returns everything folded by 8pm the next day on Standard.

What shops send us
Anything that fits a standard residential washer and dryer, with the hair shaken out first.
Neck and hand towels
Including towels from hot towel service. Ask for hot water in the order notes.
Fabric capes
Machine washable capes, shaken free of clippings. Choose hang dry on Standard for anything that should skip the dryer.
Smocks and staff shirts
Barber smocks, grooming jackets and staff tops, folded and packed by type.
Grooming and drying towels
Towels from the tub and the drying table, with loose hair shaken out first.
Table and crate covers
Fabric covers for grooming tables and crates, as long as they fit a residential machine.
Pet bedding
Bedding from boarding runs. A bed that needs a machine to itself is $8 extra.
How it works for a small shop
Each order has a $30 minimum charge, so a few days of towels in one order is usually the best value.
Shake out the hair
Clippings and loose fur come off first. Laundry with excessive pet hair cannot be serviced.
Bag and order before 3pm
Your Laundry Pro messages you with a pickup time and collects by 8pm the same day.
Washed and kept separate

Back by 8pm next day
