Posh Wash Laundry

Not satisfied with their fluff and fold service. Went twice just in case the lady simply had a busy or bad day. Yet, both times my clothes shrunk and a a lot of them given to me damp. My clothes don’t smell Gain clean either even after providing my Gain and softener sheets so they can use as much as they needed.
Will keep looking…

This facility is clean and well maintained. The staff is friendly and helpful. And the other patrons are courteous and polite! Affordable place do do laundry, conveniently located to my home. Parking is limited.

This place is decent and will get the job done.
Pros:
1. Money exchange for quarters
2. Large washer/​dryers. Everything from 1 load to 8 loads of laundry, same for dryers
3. Attendant available if something goes wrong
4. Laundry carts to move your clothes from one place to the other.
5. Next to a grocery store so potentially kill two birds with one stone
6. Organized signage regarding how many loads you can wash and the price.
Cons:
1. Not many places to sit inside. Couple seats outside.
2. Quarters only. Would be nice to be able to pay with credit card.
3. Limited parking
4. Attendant was a little prickly at first, but helpful in the end. Not a total con, but important to mention.
In all, if you need to wash laundry it can be done here efficiently.

I live just down the street and recently brought my comforter here to be washed. Peggy is such a sweet and accommodating woman, and cared for my bedding with love. It smells so clean and like home!

We were on vacation and we needed to do laundry. Found this place using Unilocal.I had a great experience. The woman working there was very nice and knew I was a rookie and helped me. I was there on Wednesday so it was «Free Soap» day! How cool is that? During the laundry cycle, I went next door to the market and bought a couple ice teas … one for me and one for my new friend. She was taken back by the gesture! When it was time to dry, she gave me Bounce sheets at no charge. When I was done, I went to her to thank her for her hospitality. It’s rare these days to find people who are good inside. She is one of those people and it was privilege meeting her. BTW, she told me I caught her on a good day! LOL

Many Unilocalers have commented on how Posh Wash is not so «posh». I agree, but perhaps the owner had a sense of humor and therefore the name of the business is an oxymoron? :)
I stopped by last week and had no issues getting my clothes cleaned. The ladies that were working their were very friendly and allowed me to sit in the back patio while I ate my lunch. On a subjective note, the dryers required less quarters to dry my clothes than any other previous landromats I have visited.

Dropped off my stuff and one employee was nice and inviting, then handed my laundry off to another employee who dropped my clothes all over the floor. Said it would be ready next day same time. Next day I called in and asked if it was done. Girl said no. I asked when it would be done and she said idk… Maybe tonight maybe tomorrow… Depends on if the person who comes in after her wants to wash it. So I said, well I need it for tomorrow so if it’s not going to be cleaned tonight I have to come get it and I’ll just clean it myself… Then she hung up on me. This happened at 3:30pm Thursday nov 6^th. I picked up my stuff and went somewhere else for cheaper with better customer service.

I had my laundry done here, via their wash and fold service. I was attended to by peggy, she was nice, easy to talk to and gave me good customer service. I had my clothes, towels, hand towels and my comforter blanket returned the next day in the afternoon neatly folded, coordinated by clothing type and color and tightly wrapped in plastic bags. Im borderline OCD so I truly appreciated that detail. I gotta say I was very satisfied with the service!

My advice:
Don’t use this fluff and fold service. Service personnel made me so uncomfortable that I won’t come back. Clothes smell terrible and just put my «clean» sheets on the bed and I feel itchy all over. I’m praying it isn’t fleas or something.
The drop off–
I arrived midday midweek and the only person working there was standing around cursing and swearing. She did apologize for this. She then did the normal weighing and gave me a laundry ticket for $ 15.60. I asked when my laundry would be ready. She said they would call me. She then complained about the person who dropped off before me, saying she doesn’t like him at all and doesn’t want to do his laundry. It was very unprofessional and uncomfortable.
The pick up–
The shop person of the evening had a very standoffish and unfriendly way about her. At first, she couldn’t find my clothes. Then she gave me someone else’s clothes. Then when I went to pay, she said they don’t take credit cards. Luckily, I had a twenty on me. I handed it to the woman who suggested that I should «round up when paying them.» This was bizarre to me. And then she proceeded to say she didn’t have any change for my $ 20 and could they just keep the change. Are you kidding? When I said that this was not okay, she proceeded to wander around looking for change, saying couldn’t I just take a credit… NO. She then opened a soda machine and gave me quarters. She still rounded up though.
In the end, I paid $ 16, was made to feel very uncomfortable multiple times, almost didn’t get my own clothes, and they smell bad now and I feel itchy all over. This place is beyond awful. Unilocalers, beware. Go anywhere else.

I have only ever dropped of comforters and quilts, but the turn around is very fast, the quality is great, and the staff is very friendly. The drop off service is a wonderful option.

I really love going here. I usually go Fridays or Saturdays after 5 pm. Never had a problem here. The staff is very friendly. I once forgot a load and they took care of it for me. Nothing was missing at all. Prices are good & the place is always clean.

I love this place free WiFi for customers free coffee and free soap on Wednesdays I woke up at laundry heaven! No one like to do laundry but time files by at posh wash there laundry attendees are always so friendly and helpful. Place is always clean and there machines are always working! I love how much micheal owner has done to this place since he took over. Thanks to posh I dont mind doing laundry! Keep up the good work posh

Found this place in Southpark, has great prices, and most of all it’s super clean. The staff is very friendly and it shows in the service they provide.

You can tell this place was once way nicer than it is now. I noticed they have new management, who are probably the reason it’s a little less ‘posh’.
We don’t mind it; we come once a week. It’s in a fairly better neighborhood than any of the other ones downtown and it does provide limited parking. We usually go early afternoon and have front door parking. They provide free wifi but you’ll have to pay a quarter to use the restroom, so come prepared if you are staying a while! I usually bring my laptop and work while we wait. There is no seating inside which kind of sucks but you can make do.
The worst thing about this experience is the KIDS. I don’t know if its the workers or what, but there are always a gaggle of kids running circles in the place. They will literally crawl all over you, knock your stuff over, etc. Just be prepared to chastise them because no one else is watching them.

In the process of moving, I decided to wash every piece of clothing that was not hanging in the closet or folded in the dresser. Wanting to get this daunting task of washing a ridiculous amount of clothes done as quickly as possible, I decided to bypass my apartment’s washing machine and try a local laundromat.
After scouring Unilocal for a place close by, I thought I would give Posh Wash a try after reading some of the great reviews.
Walking in, I was pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness of the place, lots of machines and only saw one broken down washer.
Some of the other cool amenities included: free wifi, free coffee (didn’t try it but thought it was a nice touch), seating outside while you wait, TVs with DirecTV (watched some football while washing my clothes!!!), plenty of rolling baskets and large load washers and dryers.
I had about four trash bags full of clothes, saw the 8 load washers at the front of the laundromat; emptied all four trash bags of clothes into the washer; popped in my $ 6.75 worth of quarters; added soap and watched football while the washing machine did its thing.
After the washer was finished, I decided to throw the whole giant load into one of the high-​capacity dryers located to the right of the 8 load washers. Threw a few quarters in and let the dryer roll.
About 8’ish minutes into drying, I checked on my clothes. To my absolute astonishment they were on the drier side of damp, even from just being in the dryer for a short time – freakin’ awesome. Let the drying cycle run out, grabbed my clothes, folded them (on one of the many large folding tables [high-​five]) and got out of there in maybe a little more than an hour.
The [cheap] price of a large load washer and dryer is the true gem at Posh Wash, which will definitely bring me back if I get behind on my laundry again. Made laundry easy, fast and kind of fun.
Do beware that you may have to deal with children running around, though. It sucks, but it’s not Posh Wash’s fault. Until people realize that bringing children to Ikea, Home Depot and laundromats is a bad idea, this is something we all just have to deal with.
If you have an overwhelming pile of clothes to wash, and are in the Golden Hill or South Park, give Posh Wash a try!

Sooooooooooo I love this place.
Lets admit it, laundry is one of the worst chores, ever. I hate doing laundry.
I hate washing it, I hate folding it, I hate putting it away.
But this place makes the tasks sooooo much easier.
They have an 8 LOAD WASHING MACHINE. Yes, you heard that correctly. 8 LOADS! This place is very clean, and they have places to sit (with free wifi too!)
The dryers are very efficient and you don’t have to pay to dry your clothes for very long.
Tip: they have free soap Wednesdays!

The place is clean, the washers and dryers are clean, and the staff is always friendly and love to help you with anything you need!
The parking is great, on a relatively quiet street, except for rush hours (3−6pm).
I would recommend it. My laundry always comes out looking great.

Pros: Free WiFi, easy to get to, store next door for snacks while you wait, back patio with chairs and tables, fluff and fold service.
Cons: Lots of kids running around 80% of the time I visit here.
1 row of large washers when you first walk in.
Parking sometimes sucks.
Overall:
One of the better places to wash your items in the 92 102 zip code.

I started coming to Posh Wash about a year and a half ago when the unit I moved into had a washer that had limited capacity and charged more than it should. Posh Wash happened to be the closest and I have yet to go anywhere else. I hope my landlords are not reading because they will now know why the money they are making is about $ 25.00 less than it once was.
Posh Wash offers Fluff and fold and Do it yourself. This is my take on both.
Fluff and fold service: Good service at a really affordable price. There is a 10 pound minimum and then it is a buck a pound. I use this quite a bit just because I hate taking the time out of my day to do laundry especially when I let it pile up like a mini Mount Everest. You don’t have to buy your own soap, softener or dryer sheets but then again you are putting the fate of your clothes in the hands of a complete stranger. I don’t mind doing so and David has always taken really good care of me and my clothes here. Sometimes I come to drop off my clothes before anyone gets there but I just give them a call and someone comes in to receive and weigh it. Here is a good tip for you… If you are going on vacation bring all of your clothes to the fluff and fold before you pack. They fold everything so tightly and shrink wrap it so it makes packing pretty darn easy. Usually they can complete everything within a 10 hour time frame. Great service, nice peeps.
Do it yourself: Man, I hate doing laundry but sometimes you have no choice. Most of my clothes, sheets etc are dark in color so I jump on one of the 8 load machines and throw it all in there. I believe it is $ 6.00 a load but it all fits and it is super fast. I will throw all my whites in a single load machine that is $ 1.25 and they both finish at about the same time. The dryers are nice and once again they have small ones and ginormous ones like the washers. Spread it all out and it dries a bit quicker.
The place is clean and it is usually pretty busy. Try to avoid Fridays as those seem to be busy nights to compete for space in here. They have some TV’s but I never know what is on because it is usually set on a Spanish station so I just watch my clothes go around and around and around and around and around and around and around… Then my phone will ring and I will talk for 5 minutes. Then I watch them go around and around and around… You get the idea.
I will do this about every 3 weeks and usually I am in and out the door with about 7 loads of laundry done, on hangers in an 1 hour and 30 minutes. Total cost, about $ 12.00.
Works for me.

This review is for the FOLD N’ FLUFF SERVICE ONLY: (which only accepts cash or check — FYI)
I’m a snob. Yes. I’ve never not had a washer/​dryer in my home, until now. It is SUCH an adjustment. I never used to understand why laundry was a hated chore — it was so much fun, so easy, and — true confession: I even enjoyed the ambient noise of the dryer going while I did the rest of my chores or went about my day. *sigh* Not anymore. Now, I don’t have that luxury.
Correction: I have a laundry facility on-​site, but. .. then that means many negative things — such as waiting, mingling with neighbors, seeing their underclothes drying (weird) and potentially even being forced to talk to them. Small talk at the laundromat has got to be the worst. «I LOVE those socks, where did you get them?». .. . BARF.
All these factors that make me anxious, because for the most part, I hate people, wasting time, and wasting time in public with people.(kidding. Kinda) I just hate it when they give me weird looks when I do my «Dryer Dance». (kidding. Kinda) I especially hate laundromats. (Not kidding, at all.)
SO — if you fall in my category (a self-​admitted snob/​weirdo with a pinch of frugalista) Posh Wash will make you feel better about your options. JUST AS LONG YOU DO THE FOLD N’ FLUFF.
Chris, the kid/​man that works there was extremely helpful, polite, and even gave me a call 1 hour before my 18 lbs of laundry (@ $ 1.00/lb) were supposed to be washed, fluffed, folded with good news — they were done! That was such a nice treat! my 18lbs were done in 2 hours, which would have taken me much longer at the laundry facility on site. He asked me if there were any special instructions, and prompted me through options: (fragranced detergent or no? Are you OK with fabric softener? Do we need to hand wash any delicates? Do you want your whites bleached?). .. I have a feeling that Chris could cover all corners for even the MOST discriminating and posh snob — after all, I’m up there.
OH — and there is free parking, which factors into the pinch of frugalista satisfaction rating.
