| Service | Typical price | Notes |

| Wash and fold (full service) | S$3.90–S$7 per kg | Cheapest rates usually need a pickup minimum |
| Minimum order for pickup and delivery | S$11.70–S$35 per order | Typically 3–5 kg minimum |
| Self-service laundromat wash | S$5–S$10 per load | Drying charged separately, often by time |

## How to choose
- Work out the real price per kg: a $3.90/kg headline with a 3 kg minimum suits small households, while a $5/kg rate with a $35 minimum only pays off for big weekly loads.
- Check whether 'wash and fold' mixes your load with others or washes it separately; ask for separate washing if you have baby clothes or allergies.
- For items labelled dry-clean only, pay per item rather than sending them in a per-kg bag, where they may be machine-washed.
- Confirm turnaround (standard is often 2–3 days) and the express surcharge before booking.
- Read the damage and loss policy: many laundries cap compensation at a multiple of the cleaning fee, not the garment's value.

## Red flags
- No written price list or terms on liability for lost or damaged items.
- Prices quoted without saying whether GST and delivery are included.
- Refusal to note visible stains or damage when collecting the items.

## FAQs
### How much does laundry service cost per kg in Singapore?
In 2026 full-service wash-and-fold usually costs about $4 to $7 per kg, with some operators advertising from $3.90/kg. Most pickup services set a minimum of 3–5 kg ($11.70 to $35). GST-registered operators add 9% GST, so check whether a quote is before or after GST and whether delivery is free above a spend threshold.

### Is a laundromat cheaper than a laundry service?
Usually, yes, if you have the time. A self-service coin laundromat costs roughly $5 to $10 per wash load plus drying, and one large load can hold several kilograms. A per-kg service saves time and folding but costs more for big loads. For bulky items like duvets, laundromats with large machines are often the best value.

### Should I dry clean or wash my clothes?
Follow the care label. Items marked dry-clean only, such as structured suits, silk and some wool, should be priced per item for dry cleaning and not sent in a per-kg wash bag. Dry cleaning a simple shirt starts at about $5.50 to $6 at many Singapore outlets. Point out stains when you drop items off so they can be pre-treated.

### What can I do if a laundry damages my clothes?
Raise it with the shop in writing straight away, with photos and your receipt. Many laundries limit compensation in their terms, so read these before using them. If you cannot agree on a settlement, CASE can mediate consumer disputes, and the Small Claims Tribunals handle claims of up to $20,000 (up to $30,000 if both sides agree in writing).
