Laundromat Names

Name

How about Washateria? I heard that term used down south in South Carolina and thought was better than laundromat.

Laundromat Names

How about the Amtrak Laundromat Station. The train can stop by the laundromat and drop the dirty linen off from off the trains.

You want a distinctive name for your laundromat cafe?

A name that, when people see it, they KNOW it's YOUR PLACE and nobody else's?

If that's the case? Don't choose to name it "The Wash Tub".

It's a wonderful name, don't get me wrong. But it's far from unique: There are numerous "Wash Tub" laundromats all over the U.S. (do a Google search to see for yourself).

I can't come up with anything clever... but I like
Suds-cake
Laudroteria

But my absolute favorite, especially if you're going for a 50-60's theme is
"BAKE-0-MAT"... I can just picture the turquoise and pink.

"Rise n Shine" is familiar and catchy. Bread rises; laundry doesn't exactly "shine" so it's still a reach.

But it beats Sebum and Yeast which sounds like something you'd need penicillin for. Also beats Leavening and Surfactancy, which might work in Princeton but might not. Memorable for science types, but not catchy. Barely pronounceable.

Tub n Roll? Scrub n Grub?

Sinnamon Suds? Trademarkable, but evocative?

Here in Reno, there is a big locally owned laundromat operation called Duds and Suds. Multiple stores offering self serve, drop off and, since it's Nevada, slots and video poker to keep you busy while you wait.

Our laundromat is actually called The Wash Tub with a picture of a wood tub Maytag wringer next to the name.

yeah, Suds 'n Cake is good, but .... Bake-O-Mat is really nice and retro sounding...like it alot.

Maybe not so good, but I have to add: Rub-a-Dub Bakery with three (choose whichever)people adding laundry to the old tub and holding/eating bakery goods for the sign

[laundryboy]

wow

Thanks everyone,
These are some great names, I will take them to my business partner and when we decide a name I will let everyone know..

 

[jetcone]

If you're good at baking

how about "The fluff 'n flake"

or "Duds and Danish" - but you'd have to sell Danish - especially prune!!

 

[rp2813]

Yeah, the only problem I see with an otherwise great name like "Bake-O-Mat" is that the non-laundry side of the operation might be perceived as specializing in a certain type of brownie.  Not the worst concept in the world for killing time while you're doing laundry though, and you'd have the most profitable bakery in town.

"Drop your pant's & Jacket off" wishy washi, Amanda Dealwith, how may I help you?

 

[waterwitch]

How about

"Grub & Scrub"

 

[whirlcool]

All over the south people refer to laundromats as "Washaterias". I first heard the term about 36 years ago. Being from the Chicago area it threw me to the first time or two I heard it.

 

[ingliscanada]

How 'bout "Speed Dairy Queen"
