SS1 Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Just moved to the Vieng Ping Condo and looking for somewhere cheap to do my laundry. Preferably a service where I can just leave and then pick up later, rather than a laundrette where you have to wait. Many expats here have suggested doing it at the Green Hill Condo, but they charge per item and are very expensive! Anyone around here know a good place? Thanks!

DaamNaam Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 what a hassle! how could anyone live without a washing machine? Can be a bit hard in a tiny apartment. Try riding around and find a laundry sign, last time i used a laundry (10 years ago) it was 40 baht a kilo. Probably double that now, but still not too bad.

Mousehound Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Tourist areas in the old city pay 30-40Bht/K for washing only. I have seen signs for as low as 20Bht/k around town. Plenty of signs about if you look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at 20bt its more likely that some of it will be soldOf course you will be told they can't find it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thighlander Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 They do laundry about as well as they drive......dip, twist with that heavily perfumed detergent. BO and perfume....perhaps they should call it French Style Laundry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thighlander Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 A) they don't use hot water they often don't let it complete the entire wash cycle(s). C) they use low quality detergent. D) low water pressure means that, unless they use delay, the actually wash is again shortened. E) they mix cotton with polyester...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gameyey Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I think it's worth the price just to get your clothes folded in a nice bag, they might smell stronger than before you delivered, but at least it doesn't smell BO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidMavec Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I quite like the laundry at Smith Residence, I think she does a very good job. It is 40 baht per kilo and that includes drying and folding and also she will iron some items free if you ask specifically. I've never had a problem. Granted, it's not too close to where you are asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
