Why properties switch to Automatic Laundry
Free laundry, 60% fewer service calls
A hardware-heavy online payment system was driving over half of all service calls. Removing it entirely — and installing LaundryConnect™ across 69 laundry rooms and 164 machines — made laundry free for 1,800 students and cut service calls by nearly 60%.
LaundryConnect promotes sustainability on Bowdoin Campus
Moving to free laundry meant fewer, fuller loads — and with LaundryConnect™ resolving over 85% of issues remotely, 200 service alerts were handled without a single van trip to campus. Students also chose cold water for 65% of their wash cycles.
Solving the garden apartment problem
240 units, 20 buildings, one central add-value station residents had to walk or drive to. LaundryConnect™ Pay put the add-value station on their phones — and most residents dropped the laundry card entirely.
A portfolio ready to quit the laundry business
Persistent equipment failures and slow response from a national provider had Fineberg’s management preparing to run laundry in-house. Instead they outsourced the entire portfolio — new equipment, card payment at every property, quarters gone.
