I’m one of those people who genuinely likes doing laundry. It’s therapeutic plus I like putting everything away in it’s correct place afterward. Type A alert. That enthusiasm quickly disappears when you live in a city where it’s rare to have a washer/dryer in your apartment. Last minute runs for quarters, awkward moments when you catch your neighbor moving your colorful array of undergarments out of the washer, and LOTS of waiting. The struggle is real when it comes to clean clothes! BUT there is hope. I just discovered Rinse – a full service company that does laundry, hang dry, and dry cleaning!
For anyone who works full time, you need this service. You can sign up here and get $10 of credit off your first order! It’s one of the best decisions I’ve made this year. Right next to pestering Matt about a maid to the point where he finally let me hire one. Chores seem to build up in our household. Between 2 careers, a blog, and traveling, we’re lucky to have a few moments to ourselves. We don’t necessarily want to spend those moments folding towels either.
Here’s how it works. You can sign up on their website for free. It’s pay per item (no monthly or annual fees). Pricing varies depending on what type of care your garment requires. My FAVORITE part is scheduling a pick up. It’s so easy and they are available to pick up and deliver between 8pm to 10pm every day of the week. Everything can be done on your iPhone from start to finish. They will also text you when they’re in your area to ask if you need anything cleaned (you can opt out if). It’s perfect for anyone with a full time job! I can’t tell you how many times I rushed to the dry cleaner after work only to arrive a few minutes after it closed. Ultimately, I just gave up.
Luckily, most of my clothes are low maintenance so I’ve been able to manage with the occasional laundry day. Matt is a different story. Almost every item needs it (button down central over there!). I never realized it until we moved in together! I wouldn’t exactly say he’s managed. I think he’s done what every male would do and wear things multiple times. That was totally fine until I noticed a slight odor when I’d walk by his closet. Thank goodness for Rinse! We’ve had 2 pickups already and I’m noticing a definite improvement in the “situation” plus he looks so good now that his shirts are wrinkle free!
I highly recommend trying Rinse if you’re short on time or even need something cleaned in a pinch! It doesn’t matter if it’s one item or 50, they’ll pick it up and have it ready for you when you need it!
