Self-Serve Laundromat in Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Your neighborhood laundromat on Keap Street, between Hope and Ainslie. Big high-speed washers, fast dryers, and a bright, naturally lit space, open 7 days.
What's Inside Our Self-Serve Laundromat
We've built our self-serve space around what makes laundry day actually pleasant: machines that run fast and clean well, a layout with room to fold and breathe, and the basics taken care of so you don't have to bring a backpack of supplies. Our space has lots of windows and natural sunlight pouring in.
Machines. Our floor has a full range of high-efficiency washers and stack dryers across multiple sizes. The smallest washers handle a typical 12–15 lb everyday load. Our biggest machines hold extra-large loads, the right size for a comforter, a duvet, or two weeks of laundry from a busy household. Standard wash cycles run about 25 minutes; dryers are high-velocity and finish a full load in roughly 30 minutes.
Payment. We use the CleanCloud prepaid card system. Add value at the kiosk near the entrance using cash, any major credit/debit card, or tap to pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay), then tap the card on the machine to start. Cards are reusable. Keep yours and reload anytime. Pricing is shown on each machine before you commit.
Detergent and supplies on site. A vending machine just inside the door sells single-use detergent pods, fabric softener sheets, and pre-treat sprays, and we sell laundry bags too. With detergents, bags, and ample folding space all on site, you can get the whole job done in one trip. If you forgot something at home, you don't need to leave to grab it. We also offer a hypoallergenic / fragrance-free option for sensitive skin if you ask the attendant. Pods, liquid, or powder all work in our commercial machines - and bringing your own detergent (BYOD) is always welcome.
Comfort. Free guest Wi-Fi for everyone in the laundromat, ample seating, a folding counter that runs the length of the back wall. Bring a laptop, a book, or just zone out. The time goes faster than you'd think.
How Self-Service Works
Step-by-step, the way a first-time customer would walk through it:
1. Walk in. Open 7 days, 8 AM to 10 PM. Last wash starts at 8:30 PM so the cycle wraps before close.
2. Load your machine. Pick a washer that fits your load. There's a sizing chart posted at the kiosk if you're unsure. Standard load is around 18 lb (a kitchen-trash-bag's worth of clothes). Don't overstuff; an under-filled machine washes better than a stuffed one.
3. Pay and start. Tap your prepaid CleanCloud card on the reader. Pricing is shown on each machine.
4. While you wait. The wash cycle runs about 25 minutes. Find a seat and hop on the Wi-Fi, or step out. Macri Park is one block north, and the cafés, restaurants, gyms, spas, and shops along Metropolitan Ave are right around the corner.
5. Move to the dryer. Pull your wet clothes out, choose a dryer that matches the load, and pay for the cycle the same way as the washer. A typical full-load dry takes about 30 minutes; heavy items like jeans and towels may need a top-up.
6. Fold and go. Long folding tables run along the back wall. Fold there, or take everything home. If you'd rather skip folding entirely, we also offer wash & fold drop-off. Leave the bag with us and pick up the next day.
Total time: about an hour for a full wash + dry + fold cycle.
