How to set up your laundry and dry cleaning on LinkDuka

Follow the steps for this business type, then review each request or order before confirming the work.

  1. Describe each laundry service

    State how pricing works, what garments you handle, and the expected turnaround.

  2. Explain collection and delivery

    List the areas you serve and whether customers drop off or request collection.

  3. Receive and confirm requests

    Review the customer's location, preferred date, and notes before agreeing on the job.

Explain the laundry process and pricing

Laundry prices can depend on garment type, fabric, stain treatment, or weight. Explain how you calculate the charge and whether ironing, folding, dry cleaning, or special care is included. If you inspect items before confirming the price, make that clear so customers know what to expect.

List separate services for everyday washing, delicate garments, bedding, ironing, and dry cleaning when the handling differs. Include realistic turnaround times and tell customers how you handle items that need special care.

Set a clear collection area

If you collect laundry, name the estates or neighbourhoods you serve and explain any minimum order or collection fee. Request listings can capture a preferred date and location; you still need to confirm that the route and timing work for your team.

When the clothes arrive, confirm the item count, any visible damage, and the final price with the customer. A shared record of what was agreed helps avoid disputes at collection.

Set laundry expectations before collection

Use your listing to reduce uncertainty about garment care, price, collection, and return time.

  • Garments - Name the item types and care methods you accept.
  • Pricing - Explain per-item, per-kilogram, or inspection-based pricing.
  • Collection area - List neighbourhoods, fees, and any minimum order.
  • Turnaround - Give a realistic typical timeline and explain express-service limits.
