Yes. We require a minimum 2kg order for laundry, a minimum order value of Rs.500 for dry cleaning and a minimum order value of Rs.200 for only ironing. We need to adhere to this minimum value simply to optimize our operations and keep our business viable.
We do our best to return your laundry within 48hrs. However, it could also take up to 72hrs on days where we may be servicing excessive deliveries. A delivery time will be committed when you call to order or inquire, or when we call you to confirm your online order. If there’s any delay due to unforeseen circumstances, we will inform you of the same.
Dry cleaning usually takes 4-5 days from the time it’s picked up. If you need your clothes returned sooner you can check with us and we’ll give you the earliest date and time possible. Additional charges may be applicable for express orders.
Clothes for ironing will be picked up, ironed and delivered within 48 hrs. In case you need them earlier, do check with us and we’ll do our best.
We currently offer ironing services only in Andheri. But if you have clothes for ironing along with a laundry / dry cleaning order we can get those done too. All you need to do is separate the clothes for ironing and laundry and instruct our delivery executive to tag them separately.
Yes. We accept clothes for dry cleaning if the total order value is worth Rs.500 or more.
We take utmost care to ensure this does not happen by recounting your clothes at every stage and processing your order separately. However, in the rare case that you do find any garment missing (or you find an item that does not belong to you) please notify us immediately so we can track and return them at the earliest. If we are unable to find your garment we will compensate for the loss after ascertaining responsibility. Kindly see our Terms & Conditions section for details on reimbursement in case of loss or damage.
If we ascertain that a garment was damaged during the washing or dry cleaning process we will have it repaired at no extra cost. If we are unable to repair the garment we will compensate for the damage. The Washing Bay does not take any responsibility for any pre-existing wear and tear or discolouration or any such deterioration that may occur naturally during the process of washing or dry cleaning. The Washing Bay also does not take any responsibility for staining that may occur as a result of your clothes bleeding / running colour. Kindly see our Terms & Conditions section for more details on reimbursement in case of loss and damage.
