🚨Final Update Before Opening 🚨
All of our brand new machines are officially installed and tested, and as of this morning the vending machines are in and the kiosks are installed!
That said, we want to be fully transparent with you all. We’ve encountered a few unexpected hurdles along the way—installation delays, programming issues, customer service back-and-forth, and a handful of behind‑the‑scenes challenges. Even so, we cannot stress enough how hard our entire team has been working to get the new Mel’s Laundry Lounge up and running for our community.
We know this process has taken longer than expected, and we are beyond grateful for your patience, support, and encouragement. A lot of care has gone into every decision for this space. Countless hours have been spent tracking down answers, getting the right people on the phone, fast‑tracking solutions, and making sure every detail we chose truly serves your laundry needs in the best possible way.
At this point, we are down to a few remaining backend items—mainly programming and permit approvals—but we are actively pushing to get everything wrapped up. We are confident that we will be reopening this week, even if a few cosmetic touches continue while we’re open.
👉 Wash & Fold Update:
Wash & Fold service may resume before full public self‑service access is available. Getting the machines fully operational for a manager first is a much simpler step, so if you’re in need of laundry service sooner, keep an eye on our page. We’ll post as soon as Wash & Fold is live again. Current Wash & Fold customers should also watch for direct communication from our team.
We’re almost there—and we truly can’t wait to welcome you back into the new Mel’s Laundry Lounge 🩷🧺🫧
🚧 Renovation Update 🚧
We hope you’re all enjoying the holiday season. We wanted to share an important update with all of our amazing customers — both full‑service and self‑service.
Mel’s Laundry Lounge is closed until further notice as we wrap up the major renovation of our facility. Today we’re removing all of our old machines, and we’ve officially started pouring the new concrete floor. It’s a big step toward creating a better, more efficient, and more enjoyable space for you!
👉 For full‑service customers:
If you currently have an active wash & fold order with us, don’t worry — it will be completed and delivered by Friday. However, we’re not accepting any new orders until renovations are finished.
Our brand‑new equipment is scheduled to be installed on Monday, but we still have a few additional updates to complete after that. While construction timelines can always shift, we’re hopeful to reopen by the end of next week.
Thank you all so much for your patience, understanding, and support while we give Mel’s Laundry Lounge the upgrade it deserves. We truly can’t wait to welcome everyone back to a fresh, modernized space! 🩷
