The Washhouse Laundromat

The word around Denton is simple: The Washhouse Laundromat is one of the best-kept spots in town to get your laundry done. Ask anyone who washes here and the first thing they mention is how clean the place stays and how well the machines run. People who've switched over say the washers and dryers all feel new, right down to the plumbing and electrical, and folks who live nearby have given up their own laundry rooms just to come do their loads here. That's about as strong an endorsement as a laundromat gets. There's an attendant on duty during open hours, and regulars have nothing but good words for the owner and crew.

One person's machine didn't rinse a bleach load properly, and the man in charge simply let them run it again on a different machine at no cost. That kind of hands-on help is why people keep coming back. If you need something, they'll sort it out. For big jobs, this is a solid pick. They've got machines in a range of sizes, including the really large ones that swallow comforters, blankets, and bulky family loads without a fight.

The place is known for fair prices too, and more than a few locals will tell you it's the cheapest wash in Denton. It doesn't eat your quarters, and the change machine works as it should. The soap vending machine did give one person trouble, so bringing your own detergent is never a bad idea. The wash-and-fold drop-off service earns real loyalty. One family without hookups at their apartment comes in every Sunday for it and swears by the value and the staff, and there's pickup and delivery on offer too.

Inside you'll find TVs, comfortable seating, and afternoon sun coming through the windows, though the aisles run a little narrow and the seating is limited when it gets busy. It does get busy, so plan around the crowds if you can. Open early and late every day, this family-owned laundromat has earned its reputation as a Denton favorite the honest way.
