I really need to know how many loads of laundry get washed & dryed in a laundry mat in a week. That has aprox. 20 12lb. Top loaders & 7 35 lb front end loaders and 20 dryers and it is a 24 hour laundry mat. Any help would be GREATLY APPRECITED!
Thank-You,
Tracy

I think you had better 'camp out' at one and do the research yourself if this is for a business plan. It will only make you more aware and knowledgeable of the workings of a laundry mat if you intend to go into business this way Is this why you want this information ? If it were me, and wanting to be more successful in a business venture, then I would be doing my homework.

"Ditto" to Tickle's good advice... it's hard to beat good ol' homegrown market research. Be sure to get observations at different times--weekend, mornings, late night, etc.--i.e. don't extrapolate the whole week based on what you see at, say, Wednesday afternoon.

To supplement that, the Coin Laundry Assoc might have some useful stats for you. Check 'em out at http : // coinlaundry DOT org (with a period in place of the DOT, of course, and without the spacing).

Best of luck with your new venture!

Hi, tracy067!

You've already been given some excellent advice here! I'm wondering why, specifically you're asking the question, please?

Thanks!
