While there are a few exceptions to the rule (the team at WaveMAX being one of them), most people hate doing laundry. It’s one of those tasks that never seems to end, and by the time you’ve completed it, it’s time to start all over again.
If this sounds like you, it might be time for a switch up in the new year.
In today’s blog, we’re here to share 4 reasons to outsource your household laundry in 2024, which is a rising trend for families. Keep reading to discover more!
4 Reasons to Outsource Your Household Laundry in 2024
1. You’ll Have More Time to Focus on What Matters
Let’s face it—life can get pretty hectic. And that’s before you throw in a social schedule, a school calendar, business trips and family holidays too. If you’re struggling to get on top (and stay on top) of your chores, it might be time to outsource them instead.
On average, women spend approximately 17 minutes PER DAY doing laundry chores, while men spend around 4 minutes doing the same… (that’s a conversation for another day!) With this in mind, think of how much time you could save if you invested in a wash-and-fold laundry service instead?
More time to focus on what matters to you, whether that’s a hobby you’re passionate about, a career step you’re desperate to reach or a family you love spending time with.
2. Streamlining is the Key to a Stress-Free Life
Saving time isn’t the only benefit of outsourcing your weekly load to a professional laundry service—you’ll also avoid the stress too. If you’re juggling a million jobs on your to-do list at work, streamlining is usually the first solution to consider. So why don’t we do this with our home lives too?
If you’re not sure about a regularly scheduled wash-and-fold just yet, a drop-off laundry service could be the answer to keep stress low. Simply dump your laundry at the laundromat and go on with the rest of your day, then collect when it’s clean and dry later on.
3. You Might Even Save Money Too
Alright, we know what you’re thinking: how can a laundry service save me money if I have to pay for it? While that is a good question, it’s important to consider all of the costs related to doing your laundry at home. As well as the cost of supplies like detergent and fabric conditioner, you should also take into account the price of running a washing machine and dryer.
Keep those costly utility bills down and outsource your laundry instead. Your laundromat of choice will cover everything, so all you need to pay is a small fee for the service. Smart, right?

4. Your Clothes Will Look, Smell and Feel Cleaner
As well as saving time, money and stress, chances are your clothes will look, smell and feel cleaner too. Lots of things can go wrong with our at-home laundry machines, whether its an accidental shrinkage situation or a musty smell you can’t find the source of.
Reputable laundromats use tried-and-tested methods to ensure your clothes look and smell their best, then they’ll dry, fold and iron them before your collection or delivery. They might even use powerful sanitizing ingredients like Ozone, designed to kill almost 100% of the bacteria lingering on your clothes, sheets or towels.
All in all, it’s a BIG luxury that’s well worth the affordable investment.
