Does anyone know how much one load costs to wash and dry at Bellenden Road laundromat, and if one load is significantly larger than a domestic washer?


My washing machine has packed in and, whilst I wait for my landlord to send an engineer, I am looking at using a local laundromat to save me from piles of dirty laundry!

From my own perspective many affordable and useful shops in "Bellenden Village" were lost a long while ago. What there is now represents want the new residents want and willing to pay for goods.


This is true of many ordinary local areas


Sad if true the laundromat might be going.

Laundrettes have been under a lot of pressure between the cheapness of domestic washing machines, COVID, rising energy prices and rising land prices. Apparently the number in the UK fell by ⅓ between 2017 and 2022.

I believe it is the laundromat on lordship lane that is closing due to owner passing away.


Still interested in the comparison between a service wash (wash and dry)- £10-12 and what is costs at home


Yes I know I should be able to work it out but I am a dunce!!

 

Is it (the Lordship Lane one) definitely closing down as I saw somewhere that it wasn’t.

    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.

    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
    • Hi message me if you have any bits whatever they may be thanks
