    Knowing that the sales representative will ALWAYS answer a call for advice, assistance or simply to share information about the business.
    I’d like to thank Javier, my sales representative, for the support he’s given me; we have great confidence in his management and are looking forward to seeing if we can open a second self-service car wash.

    We opened our self-service launderette on 13 April. It was a new and unfamiliar experience for us. Thanks to the support and professionalism of the team at LaColada, it has been straightforward and certainly a success.
    We’re absolutely delighted we chose LaColada. Thank you to the whole LaColada team.

FAQ ABOUT OUR SELF-SERVICE LAUNDRIES

We answer your questions about how our laundrettes work and their profitability

It’s simple: after checking the care labels on your clothes, emptying the pockets and putting them in the washing machine, all you have to do is put in the coins and select the wash programme.
The detergent and fabric conditioner are dispensed automatically, then you just have to wait for the wash to finish.

LAt LaColada Clean & Dry, we have been setting up self-service laundrettes for over 15 years; there are now more than 2,000 of them, which amply proves that yes they are profitable and easy to run.
You can run a laundrette without having to give up your current job or juggle it with other businesses, as no staff are required and, thanks to our software, it can be managed remotely. That said, we strongly recommend keeping the premises clean and in good condition.

Analysing the time taken, the cost of washing and the cost of drying, based on a family of two adults and two children with a load of laundry comprising everyday clothes, bed linen and towels weighing around 45kg, we estimate that it takes around 20 hours and costs around €25 for electricity, water and washing products.
At a self-service launderette, with an average cost of €4 per wash and €2 per dry, the total cost is around €16, including detergent and fabric softener.
AVERAGE SAVINGS OF OVER 30%

In our experience we recommend premises of 40 to 50 square metres, with at least 3 washing machines and 2 tumble dryer. As with any business, if it is located in a medium or large town, it is best if it is easy to get to or even has parking nearby.Añadir imagen

In addition to detergent, our washing machines use ACTIVE OXYGEN, which means they are disinfected after each wash.

For us, the best washing and drying machinery is undoubtedly that manufactured by Primus Laundry, which requires little maintenance, suffers few breakdowns, and is so reliable that it delivers the best results when washing clothes.

Is it possible to run a successful business without any experience? The advantages of self-service laundrettes Lacolada

Since 2013, we have been helping entrepreneurs and investors to set up profitable self-service laundrettes across Europe. We do not charge a franchise fee. You don’t need any staff. You provide the premises and we provide everything else: the best machinery on the market, advice on finding the right location, the fit-out, the technology to manage your business from your mobile, and technical support whenever you need it.

THE RESULT: a business that generates income every day, with low fixed costs and without relying on your presence.

What is the business model of self-service laundrettes Lacolada?

Self-service laundrettes are not just a fad. They are an essential service for which demand is constantly growing: busy families, students, older people, displaced workers and immigrants. A wide range of people who want to wash three times as much laundry as they would at home, in under 30 minutes and at a better price.

It is a business that is resilient to economic crises. People always need to wash their clothes.

Many of our members run their launderettes alongside their current jobs or other businesses. Others, such as Mario, opened their first launderette after being made redundant and now run three outlets in La Rioja.
