What studios send us

Anything that fits a standard residential washer and dryer, packed by item type when it comes back.

Member and sweat towels

The daily pile from the floor and the changing rooms. Ask for hot water in the order notes if you want it.

Yoga mat towels

Mat towels and fabric mat covers. Rubber mats cannot go in a washer, so keep those out of the bag.

Hot yoga towels

Heavier, wetter loads are fine. Laundry is weighed dry after folding, so you are not paying for the sweat.

Staff shirts and kit

Instructor tops and front desk uniforms, folded and packed by type.

Hand wraps and small kit

Put hand wraps and grip socks in a mesh laundry bag so they stay together. The bag comes back washed too.

Microfiber cloths

Cleaning cloths from the floor and equipment wipe downs.

How it fits your class schedule

Order once the morning classes are done and the towels are back by 8pm the next day on Standard. Keep a second set in rotation and you never run out.

Collect the towels

Bag the used towels from the floor and the changing rooms. Any bag works.

Order before 3pm

Your Laundry Pro messages you with a pickup time and collects by 8pm the same day.

Washed and kept separate

Tagged, kept apart from other orders and dried on low to medium heat.

Back by 8pm next day

Folded and packed by type on Standard. Express covers the weeks you run short.

Good to know before you start

  • Rubber mats stay out

    Pros launder what fits a standard residential washer. Mats and foam rollers do not belong in the bag.

  • No stain treatment

    Laundry Pros do not look for or treat stains. If odor is the problem, include a sports detergent and choose I Will Provide.

  • Express has a 60 pound limit

    Bigger loads go on Standard, which has no maximum. Orders over 100 pounds may need an extra day.

  • Nothing unsanitary

    Laundry with blood, vomit or other bodily fluids beyond normal traces cannot be serviced and is returned as is.

FAQs

Questions studio owners ask

  • Do you wash yoga mat towels and covers?

  • Yes. Mat towels and fabric covers are fine. Rubber or foam mats cannot go in a residential washer, so keep those out of the bag.

  • Can you use our sports detergent?

  • Yes. Choose I Will Provide when you order and include the detergent with the pickup. Your Pro uses it and returns what is left.

  • How many towels can we send at once?

  • There is no maximum on Standard, though orders over 100 pounds may need an extra day. Express takes up to 60 pounds per order.

  • Can we set a regular pickup day?

  • In some areas you can choose the pickup day when you place the order. Everywhere else orders are on demand, and pickup is usually within a couple of hours of ordering.

  • What about boxing hand wraps?

  • Put them in a mesh laundry bag so they stay together. Laundry bags come back washed with the rest of the order.

  • Do we have to commit to a weekly volume?

  • No. Order when you need it. Each order has a $30 minimum charge, so it usually makes sense to send towels in batches.
