need

COINS

All machines accept 20p, 50p, £1 and £2 coins. Please see below for more detail. 

​

DETERGENT

Don’t waste your detergent! Our water is treated so you won’t need as much as you do at home. There is a detergent dispenser in the launderette to the left of the entrance door. Check there is a cup available and then insert 50p to dispense detergent.

​

For the comfort of other people washing and drying, no food or drink is allowed on the premises. Please take all rubbish home to recycle.

​

If leaving the launderette whilst your washing is in a machine, please return within 45 minutes. Do not leave the dryers while your laundry dries. Dryer doors can be opened and we are not responsible for theft or loss. Without checking progress you may well be over-drying, risk spoiling your clothes and spending more money than you need to. 

​

Night owls, remember that water will be automatically cut off from the machine at closing time. Please give yourself enough time to wash before this. We recommend the last wash is started before 9pm.
​
At 10pm, the door will automatically lock. You can leave, but not re-enter, so don’t leave anything behind.
