Depending on these variables --especially size-- a commercial laundry can gross from $2,500 to $10,000 a week, or more. Each store is different, as is each owner, but these are certainly achievable returns. A C Power Company can assist you in analyzing the potential of specific locations.

What makes a good location for my Commercial Laundry?

Your business should be located in a high-traffic, densely populated, middle income area with parking. Coin laundries can also do well in middle-to-high income areas with condominiums, apartments and townhouses because many two income families find it more convenient to use the local commercial laundry with it's wash, dry and fold service. Furthermore, many young couples do not have the desire or capital to buy a washer or dryer, so they use commercial laundries.

Can A C POWER COMPANY help me find a good location?

Yes! Among the many services we provide is pre-qualified locations, store design, and equipment recommendations. We can also provide assistance in negotiating a good lease. We usually have locations that are in negotiation and/or in construction.

Does it take any special skills to own and operate a self-service coin laundry?

No. A coin laundry is a service business. No special skills are required. The most important factor in your success is you! The keys to a successful and profitable laundry are to create a friendly atmosphere which makes customers loyal patrons of your laundry; keep the store clean and brightly lit; and advertise and promote your store to your customers. A C Power Company will assist you in making your store successful, including assistance with marketing and promotion concepts. However, the most important skill is common sense, hard work, and business professionalism.

How much does it cost to build a commercial coin/debit laundry?

The cost depends on the location, size, equipment mix, and amount of leasehold improvements required for your store. Today's professional coin laundries range in average size from 2,000 to 5,000 square feet. A properly equipped and built coin laundry can cost in total from $180,000 to $450,000. An average cost is approximately $250,000.

What investment is required?

You'll need to invest a minimum of $70,000 cash to get into the commercial laundry business.
