Launderettes / Dry cleaners

Steamer

Washing machine broken, anyone know of a launderette either in town or the east side of town? WHat's the deal with them, do you have to stay to gaurd your clothes? How much does it cost? Can you do bigger loads than a regular machine? I am a laundertte virgin

Try Laundry Centre Terryland Retail Pk
I never used this one though.

Another two on Bohermore, one by the post office and the other across from the council.

You can usually bring a binbag for a fiver/tenner.
Choose if you want them dried too.
Often you leave it there and then come back after an hour or two and they have stuffed everything back in the bag for you.

Fey!

The Olde Malt Laundrette is in the laneway beside the Kings Head between High Street and Middle Street. Very nice to deal with.

Bring them in a bag of clothes/duvet/etc and ask when they'll be ready. Let them know if you need ironing done. Get a price. Come back, pick them up, pay, go home.

Steamer

Ah that's great, thanks guys

sgthighway

You could try the one in the Ballybane Shopping Centre

Xiney

fyi, the one in ballybane doesn't have machines large enough for duvets. The ladies are very nice though.

I use the one at prospect hill for duvets. I believe the self serve at prospect hill is pretty cheap (4 euro per load or something)

Got really good prices for 2 black bags of washing and 2 suits to dry clean in launderland on the hill there before forster court.

there used to be a Magdalene Laundry and a Swastika laundry, but i believe both are closed down.

I brought two duvets to Launderland on near Forster court (Brendan O Hehir road I think). They were kingsize and they turned out perfect. I always use them. Technically, they're the city centre/east side

Hey!

As the title says, I'm wondering if there's a laundrette anywhere in the Terryland region. I'm a student but our washing machine is broken (don't know how to use it anyway!) and I'm not going home for 2 weeks.
Thanks in advance!

Theres a launderette across from terryland fruit and veg

joeKel73

Laundrette in both Cuirt and Gort na Coiribe. In Cuirt you get the tokens from the shop I think, and in Gort you get them from the receiption. They'll not know if you're resident or not.

Thanks folks!
Where is Terryland fruit and veg btw?

In the Terryland Retail Park, which is at number (6) on the map on this page.

From the Headford Rd, walk down the lane beside the Marriot Hotel. Terryland Fruit & Veg is on the right, near the end of the row of shops. I think the laundrette is on the left.

Dear All,

Firstly, If I have posted in the wrong forum, I apologise, but I am new to here, to Galway and Ireland - only moved here 3 weeks ago!

I am looking for a self service / diy laundrette - I have time to kill, and I quite like sitting watching the machine go round and round and round (whilst washing my clothes of course!). I have a car and generally the Galway City Area / outskirts is fine - at least I will get to see some of the area based on your recommendations!

Any useful advice/costs / change needed for the machines would be greatly appreciated.

I did have a root around in the old posts and found one from 2009, but not sure how relevant some of the info from then was. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=62676888

Thank you kindly

AC

there's one in cuirt na coiribe, its supposed to be for residents, but you could pretend if you look studentish.

biko

Welcome to the forum, and Galway.

Yeah there's been a few threads on this but most/all places aren't self service. You hand your bag in and return a few hours later for it.
These are the threads I could find

Hi Apoei - oh to be a student again.(I look distinctly un-studentish - maybe their parent!!!)

thank you Biko, - you clearly have powers to search the boards that I do not - shall work my way through the threads and try NOT to get lost when I am driving round Galway. Watch out for the traffic chaos I leave in my wake....

Galway K9

Theres one on prospect hill.

Redhairedguy

Howdy,

Anyone know of any good laundrettes in the city, preferably the West End or on the way to Spiddal.

Thought there was a pressed4time in Barna but couldn't find any info on their site.

Sick of constantly having my place chock full of dirty/slowing drying clothes and would like to pay someone to take care of them for me. Yay... Capitalism!!!!

biko

There are a few around there, at least one in the West, one in Salthill and one in Westside.

Washeteria, Sea Rd
Suds Laundrette, Salthill
Westside Dry Cleaners & Launderette

Redhairedguy

Where about is the place on Sea Road? Is it as far down as the pizza place?

cheesemaker

Just beside Ernie's.

Good value too.

magentas

O'Connors beside Joyces in Knocknacarra

Redhairedguy

Stopped into the Press4time in Barna yesterday. Prices were amazing. €2 per kg of washing, and that includes drying.

Anyone have any experience with them? They would be very handy for me to go to, as they're on my way to work.

cranky bollix

jkforde
