I use to own a laundromat in Chicago. Made good money. One of the best things I did was hire a person to do laundry. Charged 1.00 a pound. For wash and fold service. It was a god send. 1. People didn't vandalize b/c someone was there while it was open. 2. The wash and fold service more than paid their salaries. People who actually had their own washers and dryers came in all the time just b/c it saved them so much time.

@Byvägen yeah we toyed with the idea of adding something more. It is all going to depend on the area you are in. Some areas that simply won't be a good a idea. I have seen places in SF with a bar on the otherside. Going ong to depend on the location, space, and most importantly the type of clientele. The biggest thing that put us off was the liability. For insurance purposes you have to very specific what they are renting. You want to rent just the space they using. That way you dont have patrons using folding tables as places for the coffee and etc.. So as soon as they walk away with that coffee or taco everything else becomes your liability. Drop the coffee on a running kid. It's in your business then. Slip and fall after buying the coffee, it's in your business. Leave on a or have a faulty piece of machinery burns your olace with there's. Insurance won't cover it b/c you didn't let them know. If you did you are going to get hit with the premium increase. If you have the space to put up a wall that makes since. At that point just add a separate entrance. Every person I talked to advised against it unless I could wall them off in someway.

@@jamalpeoples3736 I've always thought it would be a good idea for some laundromats to add a play area for mothers so their little kids could be occupied while they do laundry. A laundromat attached to a grocery store or gym would also be a good idea, then people could shop/exercise while their clothes were washing.

@@WindWipper a play area is a horrible idea. Liability is the the name of the game. No added cash value, yet tons of opportunity for injury.. In and out is the way of a laundromat. Anything that keeps them there longer is bad. Are they going to stop shopping or exercising to change their load? Are they going to get out of a line at the deli counter to put clothing in the dryer? Are they going to jump out of a zoom class to check and see if their dryer has stopped. Are they going to skip the shower? You need something were they can step away quicker check in a couple of seconds and get back to what they are doing. Bars and coffee places work if they are separated and you can just walk thru a door. Gyms and grocery stores would crush your laundromat especially during peak times. A ton of laundry just sitting in machines not making money. Location, cleanliness, safety, and working machines is whats needed in a laundromat. Almost everyone has tablets and phones for media consumption. You would be better served adding comfortable seating more charging outlets and teaming with a company that will give free movie codes with ads as long as they are on your wifi. Would cost very little, add almost nothing to overhead or liability.

@@jamalpeoples3736 Ah, makes sense. I was just thinking that some parents bring their little kids anyway, so why not give them a small place w/ a table to color coloring books, play w/ small toys, that sorta thing. Might make them more likely to return business. Providing wifi would be a good idea. On the other stuff... i guess you're right, not everyone is as conscientious as me about time. ; )

Generally seems like people with worse parents end up extremely successful or extremely unsuccessful, wonder what the factors for that are. Certainly seems like that should be different though. It's an interesting problem to solve because you can't just take kids from their parents and letting the parents do as they wish disadvantages some kids.

I would look into a security company that can monitor the cameras there remotely. Yes, it would be an added expense, but if you keep getting breaking into, and your equipment gets damage, you can't be at that site 24/7. Especially where he said he is having newer equipment installed, you want to keep those machines up and running. Plus, and another HUGE factor, if people don't feel safe in your business, they will stop coming. Bad neighborhood or not, something needs to be done here. Just a thought. Great video though, I love him emptying the machines and collecting all the change, I wished I could do that. :)

Working for an Apartment maintenance company in the greater MSP area as a Tech, I came across a unique laundry at a very "rough" apartment complex.Only one machine took money, then dispensed a card that worked in all the machines, (candy,Pop, soap, etc). The complex manager explained to me that vandalism and theft were zero now in the laundromat. The only cash on premises is in the "safe like" Card dispenser. Plus once they purchase the card you have captured that money. It's not quarters, it's yours. FYI

familiar with them. A convenience store next door to my old building was in an area of high-rises and older apt blocks. You went in there and "loaded" your laundry card with bills/coin, or cards - debit and cc. Very convenient, very secure. No vanadalism of any of the machines on this paycard system at all. Losers. Losers. Losers. Thieves, vandals, making life difficult for everybody else.

my friend owned a laundromat he switched it from an automat to a manned laundromat he hired one full-time person and himself he was able to make more money because there was no damage ever done to his business after that. he also changed the 24-hour operating hours to 15 a day and he actually made more money if you give people a deadline they might do their laundry in a timely fashion anyone coming to do laundry after 10:00 p.m. is probably shady to begin with you don't want those people in the automat after hours plus you're not there to handle problems with the machines which sometimes spins people out of control if you have someone there to handle it it saves a lot of aggravation in the long run. however it might just be his area I know that the changes he made help them net profit a lot more per month.

Man, i run a laundromat. You're doing so many things that i hope you're talking extra precautions for. For instance, have at least one other person with you, especially for the outside machine. Ideally, it's best to lock the doors when you're opening anything that takes bills, especially the changer. At the very least, have someone watch your back while doing it. Also, invest in a changer that stacks the bills instead of opening a box full of what looks like shipping insulation. They aren't that expensive

Even being accompanied very discreetly without necessary showing up as a "group" together, or with anyone, but having your people very very near the facility to keep an eye out on you from the outstide. I'm sure the area is still pretty safe, but please don't underestimate allllll aspects of security that could be really helpful, including the installation of e x t r a high def cameras externally too (even at the side or rear of the building), along with a real deal, heavy duty security door for your office inside. I absolutely don't want to freak you out, but you can NEVER be "too safe" or hardcore about extending your security measures nowadays because people are crazy. Your channel is great and thanks so much for sharing all of your business experience and knowledge with us. Take care!

Maybe it’s just me but looks like it lost money. The “Rent” category is what I’m obviously not picking up on. Do you pay rent or you collect rent? “Rent” is wrote in red as to be a deduction/cost, but the $1100 is in blk as to be a profit/income.

Just found your channel. I work for a laundry company and we repair commercial laundry equipment for hotel, hospitals, laundromats etc... Best idea to get rid of the top loads. Dexter is a good brand however just keep in mind tech support can sometimes be of issue. Any alliance brand is good Speed Queen, Huebsch, Unimac. We are Wascomat dealers they are good as well. Tech support is okay. If you ever need anything with an issue you cant figure out feel free to reach out. Cool to see you doing this and me having a little knowledge of it. Keep up the good work

I’ve got a couple of questions: Do you have any idea how much you’d make on average, and then with that how long it would take to break even from the overhead plus maintenance? The second is at what point owning all of these vending machines is it worth your time to collect all of these manually? The first questions was referring to both the vending machines and the laundromat. I know it’s an old video so im not really expecting a reply but thanks regardless.

It's true, the money is there. I helped my dad run his laundromat. I would use to a 5 gallon bucket and almost fill it with quarters from all the washers and dryers, I would quickly do it when nobody was there. When my dad would have the time he would count all those quarters in one or two buckets full.

@Chet Muggins: Many times I only had time to only get to two rows of washers or dryers before people would come in. It would take about two or three weeks to fill a 5 gallon bucket of quarters which we would count and put in cloth sacks to take to the bank.
