Sunshine Laundry’s busiest days of the week are Sunday and Saturday, with the most business occurring between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. And what is the “best” time to come in? Weekday mornings between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. are the least crowded.
It depends on the actual size of your comforter. Selecting the right washer is as simple as trying it on for size. If you put the comforter into the washer and you find yourself using your shoulder in order to get the door shut, you probably ought to use a larger washer. On the other hand, our front load washers actually work better when they are more than half full. In fact, you can fill the washer nearly completely full, just don’t stuff it tight. Leave a little room for the water
Absolutely! Whether you’re short on time or would just rather have someone else take care of the laundry, we are your one-stop solution. We specialize in drop off laundry services and often wash larger items such as comforters, sleeping bags, and more.
We have several options available, but our “default” is Tide Pods., we also offer scent-free hypoallergenic detergent and softener. Just let us know what you’d prefer when dropping off your laundry! If you would like to provide your preferred detergent or softener for us to use for your order then that is fine, too
No, we do not offer these services. However, many items (including most comforters) that say “dry-clean only” on their tags can be washed without any issues. Feel free to check with any of our friendly attendants if you are not certain if your item can be washed or not. Dropping your comforter off with us to be washed can be significantly cheaper than having it drycleaned – it’s our specialty!
