Hygiene
Is a Laundromat Hygienic?
Yes, as long as the machines are looked after and everyone follows the rules. At Laundromat Stuttgart-Mitte all machines have been new since the renovation, and you can wash at 60 degrees at no extra cost.
Temperature is what counts
How clean your laundry gets depends mainly on the wash temperature and the detergent. For towels, bedding and underwear, 60 degrees is recommended. At Wash&Go that costs the same as 30 degrees: €5.00 in the 8 kg machine.
Why there are house rules
In a laundromat somebody else washes after you. That's why certain things stay outside:
- Dog and horse blankets, because hair in the drum harms allergy sufferers
- Workwear with oil or petrol, because it sticks in the drum
- Dyeing, because dye residue ends up in the next load
How to wash especially clean
- Glance into the drum before you put your laundry in.
- Wash towels and bedding at 60 degrees.
- Use enough detergent. Powder with bleach works better on white laundry than liquid detergent.
- Don't leave the laundry in the drum for long after washing, dry it straight away.
