As someone who lives in NYC, I agree that this type of business will only continue to grow. My building didn’t have laundry when I first moved in. The ONLY option was drop off/pickup - which resulted in leaving laundry bags outside our apt door for a 8PM-midnight pickup window once a week. Even AFTER the landlords provided laundry to apt residents - most people still preferred the laundry pick up service. WHY? It was the easiest way to get your laundry done. Spending zero time in laundry room, no worries about waiting for a machine to open up - and no need to fold your laundry. Totally LOVE laundry delivery services!!

I've been using a laundromat 1x per week for the last 8 years. I rent a room in a home w/ washer and dryer. The logistics - figuring out who's doing what w/ the machines, plus mechanical break downs left me frustrated. I solved all problems laundry by using a laundromat. I get a week's worth of laundry done, grocery shopping, mail pick up at my post office box, my nails done, visit the library, get my taxes done (the laundromat's in a neighborhood shopping center) in under four hours for under $20. It's nice to say I'm not stepping on machine user toes, or personal items here at home -- period. Love the laundromat.

This is a well planned out laudromat business. Adding the PICKUP and DELIVERY services is what's making his business successful. And now including a course and "advertising" on Upflip, this guy is not dumb. It shows that college isn't for everyone, or even necessary in certain cases. If existing low profit laundromats added this service, this gentleman wouldn't be buying their business out. Try to even contract out the pickup and delivery service to a local so you don't have to buy vans, drivers, and insurance - the contractor uses their own vehicle. All the contractor does is bring the clothes to your facility and delivers them back to the customer. Tip: Instead of hiring full-time employees to wash clothes, use a couple of temp agencies and have temp employees on a long-term basis - there's no overhead for you, the owner. You're welcome. 🎉

The one thing I took away from this is that you don't need to be in tech or have the newest idea to be an entrepreneur. You can take what worked previously, see how people are failing at doing it, improve it and modernize it in the process to get the business going. Of course, the amount of effort and time that the owner spent in this is insane and I'm just now realizing that maybe if you have a good high paying job (surgeons, data analysts, senior developers, airplane captains, etc.) then it might be not the best to go for a business and just stay on the job long term, less hassle and more free time that way since you don't have to be on call 24/7 in case something breaks or needs crew. But it's still very tempting to see whether you have enough capital to go for a business and build it from the ground up, there's just something there tempting you to go for it and I think that the rewards can be great but sometimes the cost of it (less time with family and leisure) can be much more costly than you think it is.

When I read your comments …it reminded me of my mother. She toiled soooo hard, I learnt work ethics from her. As a young mother, she watched me working , studying at nights, looking after my family of two very young kids, working a corporate job at 60 hr week, no OT because I worked in accounting…they didn’t pay OT…she was very worried about me and asked me to slow down. I looked at her and said you never slowed down when you were my age …what’s your concern? She said I worked harder than her. She knew I only slept on average 4-5 hrs max per day, and that is very bad she said. Fast forward many years , I am reaping the fruits of my labour. Now…I see my adult children working very hard to create their own wealth. Children learn how to sacrifice when they witness their parents build something for the family. They can’t marry lazy spouses …they know it will kill the marriage . Love never overcomes these traits, it’s a battle you don’t want on a daily basis. It breaks your spirits. My grandfather was an immigrant who didn’t speak English when he arrived…. He said, You have to outwork your peers as a girl of immigrants as well as be wise about money. Then one day you will believe it is possible because you also made the sacrifices to have less bling and more money saved. I honour my parents and grandparents by ensuring my children replicate all I was taught. It’s not easy when their friends don’t do it …but they have courage and say No when it’s distracting them from their ultra goals. They got their priorities right. Diamonds are not a girl’s best friend ….. nope ! Wealth in cold cash is along with great family relationships and few solid friends who have your back! LOL This laundry mart owner has the will power and discipline to do whatever it takes to make his magic happen. Great video telling his life story!

I had to laugh when you said laundry service didn’t exist 10-15 years ago. I’m 68 and my Grandmothers did not do laundry. They didn’t even own washing machines. Everything except underwear, which they hand washed, went to the local laundress. Growing up, my Mother sent all shirts and bed linens to the laundry. I still remember her being asked what level of starch she wanted in the shirts and if she wanted them folded or on hangers. I think the big change came with permanent press fabrics because doing the laundry required ironing, which took a lot of time. Once you could just hang things up from the dryer and have them look OK, I think more people started doing all their laundry at home. I actually use the laundromat occasionally, mostly for large things like quilts and pillows, but have fond memories of the laundry being delivered and suddenly having a closet full of clean shirts and crisp cotton linens on my bed.

When in the biz I used to let the counter staff do wash dry fold as their own enterprise and profit center. I wanted nothing to do with drop off because the machines did plenty. I had next to zero turnover in staff.

He right about optimization. I go to the laundry mat I do because I can add extra wash and rinse cycles... for more money of course. I watched this just because I thought it might be interesting. It never ceases to amaze me how someone's love for what they do can make almost anything interesting.

I have owned a bunch back in the day and a good experience plus all cash and no receivables. Among the biggest problems in the biz are equipment distributors pushing turn key stores instead of just selling machines. This means if you have a good business they will be eyeballing your market. So make sure the area has limited utility or land possibilities for a new store which will poach customers.

I really enjoy watching people who put pride and innovation into their business and care about who they are serving. So many businesses shouldn't be in business. Customer service is at an all time low and it's a money grab everywhere. This was refreshing to see an operator so passionate about his biz.

Very good video! Owning a business is not for the faint of heart but is so rewarding. As to why some people would use a laundromat in this day and age, it varies. I knew a lady who lived in a shared laundry building and would spent 5 dollars to bleach and sanitize the machines before she would wash her clothes (due to the hygiene of some other tenants)so a super clean business like this would have gotten all of her business!

That's awful...some laundromats say on the door NO Pet blanket in our machines....however; I have an idea IF you have enough machines one of them should exclusively be for pet blankets then again...some people simply don't read and probably won't put it in that particular machine....they would need to be supervised which is a chore...anyhow I too prefer the availability of machines so I can wash my comforters and bed sheets while I do my regular clothes.

Dave is a great example of balancing the demands of life including a successful business.

In my community, most of the laundromats have gone out of business, one that is brand new is not profitable and the owner is selling it at a loss. There are few areas a laundromat will work, only locations slightly above the poverty level. Laundromats will not work in very low income areas, middle-class neighborhoods or premium neighborhoods.
