City of London laundry, up close

Every neighbourhood washes differently. Here is City of London, as our drivers see it.

Weekday shirts and suits

The Square Mile empties at the weekend, so City laundry runs Monday to Friday: office workers’ shirts and suits collected from reception in the morning and back on hangers within the working week.

Hotels around Liverpool Street

Hotels near Liverpool Street, Aldgate and Blackfriars turn rooms on weeknights for business travellers, so linen moves on a fixed weekday round that matches their busiest nights.

Barbican and Golden Lane flats

Most City residents live in the Barbican and Golden Lane estates, in flats with little room to dry washing. Bags can be left with the estate’s porters for collection.

Loading bays and security desks

Narrow lanes and strict loading rules mean City pickups are booked around building security: tell us the entrance and the hours and we work to them.

Local knowledge

About City of London

The City of London is barely a square mile, yet it is packed with offices, hotels and places to eat that run flat out on weekdays and fall quiet at the weekend.

Few people actually live here, mostly in the Barbican and Golden Lane estates, so most of the washing is hotel linen, uniforms and kitchen whites rather than family loads. Narrow lanes and strict loading rules mean every pickup has to be planned around the working day.
