Columbus Laundrette

This is like the only laundromat in town so you just have to deal with it when you don’t have a washing machine at home.

Pros: spacious, plenty of machines, very nice owner, never too crowded and very cheap. The regular top load machine is only $1 a wash!!! I have been to many laundromat in different part of the country and never have I seen $1 a load. The front load is $2.75 and its the kind of size where it would cost $3.5-$4.75 else where.
The dryers are 7min/quarter and they are huge.

Cons: machines are really old. Those top load machines look like they are retired from my grandma’s house and they are not the cleanest ones.

If you can look past the dirt and lint and look away from those out of order machines (they are filthy) then you will do just fine ~

Lowered from 4 to 3 stars, lots of out of order machines and no number to call to get your money back

WASH AT YOUR OWN RISK!  Ten years in and still no service number to call here.  Washer today drained all the water out on the floor.  Different washer today stole $3.50, (brings my running tab to $32.50 I've lost here).  Big washer quit mid cycle and locked all my clothes in one night.  Dryers are VERY weak.  Inoperable machines ARE NOT MARKED WELL.  Like most businesses in this town, they want your dollars and aren't concerned if you are happy with the product.

Maybe the machines work,
Then maybe they don't...
No one likes losing $10-$20.
When the machines don't work.
I mean just look at the place,
How do you get refunds?
Maybe you DON'T...
NOT my kind of place and numerous people were arguing about how to get refunds.
NOT FOR ME...

The facility itself is good. A good time to go is between 2-4 pm. There was a guy smoking cigarettes in there the last time which I did not think was legal but other than that it is a good place.

Custom Fine DryCleaning

I moved from another state two years ago to Ashville. After taking my clothes to a nearby dry cleaner who damaged my clothes and did not even apologize, I decided to drive 40 minutes to Custom Fine DryCleaning . I am so glad I did.

The workmanship and quality of this dry cleaner is phenomenal. The customer service is outstanding!!! Excellent tailoring as well.

The staff at Custom Fine Dry cleaning are so kind and courageous. They do a fantastic job job at a reasonable price. Their seamstress is spot on and recently help me with my Mother of the Bride dress a few days before my daughter’s  wedding, with a last minute alteration and the results were perfect!

SO happy I found this place! I brought my wedding dress here to be altered and they did an exceptional job! It was altered to perfection and fit like a glove! It was also done in a timely manner and I was able to try it on before final pick up.

Wonderful, kind staff. My family urgently needed a pair of suit pants tailored for a funeral. They understood the urgency of the situation and had them ready for us extremely quickly. Expert quality tailoring.

Had such a wonderful experience with the team at Custom Frine Dry Cleaning. Kind humans, great process, great outcome! Very happy with the tailored pants and jacket as well as dry cleaned items.

We have been going here for over 20 years...but the new help is horrible, especially the afternoon grump.
It’s like I’m an inconvenience to her..so we’re finally going to look for another cleaners.
The old help was so amazing, friendly, kind and helpful So sad she left!

Service is horrible.  I will not use Inman Dry Cleaners again.  Had the same lady with drop off and pick up.   She was rude both times and it felt like she was mad at me for being there.

Great, friendly service.  I love to support local small businesses!!

One Price Dry Cleaning & Coin

One Price Dry Cleaners is a big disappointment. Brought shirts that I asked to clean collars. They came back exactly like I brought them. A raincoat with a small coffee stain fared no better. My $52 bill netted me nothing but dirty clothes back. See photos. What really disappointed me was the "I don't care attitude". The lady basically said we did what we could and then walked away. Conversation over.

I have been coming here for YEARS. I took four jackets to be cleaned. It’s not the best place, but it’s close to home, so I kept giving them my business. Big mistake.

When I got home, one jacket was covered in HAIR — and not mine. I called, went back, and instead of treating a long-time customer with basic respect, they told me I would have to PAY for them to run it again.

The owner wasn’t even there, yet left word that they needed to charge me. The attendant didn’t bother to look at the jacket, didn’t check the hair, didn’t try to help, and honestly never smiles or welcomes anyone anyway.

This place clearly does NOT care about customers. Zero customer service. Zero accountability. And now I’m left wondering what exactly I paid for.

I will NEVER return. DO NOT GO HERE. If you do, be prepared to be disappointed too.

Good price if you don't add extra quarters to get the machine to start.  The Indian lady was rude and blamed me for the machine not working.  I followed her instructions to wait until the light goes off.  And, low and behold, I paid 2.75 for soaking wet clothes.  I dried my other load and went to another Laundromat to rewash and dry the load from the broken machine.  She did not offer a refund nor the overage from trying to start the machine.  I will wash in the river first before reentering that business.

Quarter machine took my $20 and didn't give me any quarters. The dry cleaning business next door was closed and I was leaving to go out of town the next day for 15 days...so I left a note under the door of the dry cleaning business, explaining what happened, when it happened and left every kind of contact information I could think of. No attempt was ever made to make right what happened.
This laundromat is also very dirty, dingy and there was an assortment of questionable characters "hanging out" (idk if they were actually customers or not) and they made me nervous.  I would not recommend using this laundromat but if you do, be prepared, bring your own quarters and sit in your locked car while you wait for your clothes to finish up.

The washer I used did not spin/extract. (This meant my clothes were completely soaked,...it would have taken hours for them to dry in a dryer.)
The owner-wife tried to invent reasons it was MY fault, until I ADAMANTLY INSISTED SHE stop talking at a hundred miles an hour...AND "LISTEN TO ME."  I told her I had NOT done anything she suggested were "possible" reasons it was my doing.
The whole time, she held in her hand the quarters I would need to RE-DO the entire load thru another full wash cycle in another machine. She finally gave them to me when the door to the machine my clothes were locked in finally opened. SHE KNEW THE WHOLE TIME HER MACHINE WAS BAD, (which is why she bought the quarters with her ahead of my explaining the problem!)
Above that, the indicator light did not work...And iIt took fifteen minutes for the door to finally unlock.
SO, I waited for a whole new wash & extract to happen, wasting my valuable time.

THEN the dryer took my quarter and would not turn on.
The owner-husband came over this time and ALSO tried to act like I did something wrong. THIS I refused to take and told him to his face how unethical this pretending it is the customer's fault WHEN THEY ALREADY WERE WELL FAMILIAR WITH THE PROBLEMS WITH EACH MACHINE FROM LOTS OF COMPLAINTS.
I told him that I would now "go miles" to a real laundromat: not because his machines were broken, but rather because HE IS DISHONEST. He could have had a patient customer. Not now.

Other patrons not only agreed with me out loud, they literally CHEERED at my telling this jerk the truth about his lack-of-Honor. "No, he is NOT honest...AT ALL!," one man exclaimed. One lady clapped at my admonishing the owners.

Also,...
Soap machine DOES NOT work.
Snack machine DOES NOT work.
Drink machine DOES NOT work.

SAVE YOURSELF A LOT OF AGGREVATION, GO ANYWHERE ELSE!

Pocket Change Laundry

Pocket Change Laundromat in Laurel Park has become my favorite chore-day destination, so much so that my bestie and I gladly make an hour roundtrip drive to do our laundry together.

While there are other options closer to home, NONE compare to the experience, atmosphere, and genuine care that Pocket Change offers.

The assortment of washers feels like a love letter to thoughtful planning, whether I’m washing a tiny load of intimates or tackling a mountain of king size bedding and towels, there’s always a machine perfectly sized for the task!

Cleanliness is clearly a priority at Pocket Change, because the entire space feels fresh, orderly, and tended to with pride, transforming our previously-dreaded laundry day into something surprisingly pleasant!

… But what truly sets Pocket Change apart is the employees. Every person we’ve encountered has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient with newbies in a way that feels rare these days. There’s a warmth in being greeted with familiarity, too. A warm smile or friendly greeting somehow makes it feel less like a chore.

I am genuinely grateful for this business. Pocket Change Laundromat is more than a place to wash clothes: it’s a reminder that even everyday tasks can be elevated with a little bit of care, intention, and kindness. A true gem tucked in Laurel Park, and absolutely worth the drive!

Impressive laundromat! Whats the big deal about this place????
We went in today 01/06/26 and couldn’t believe how clean,efficient,and professional the place is. Kudos to this place for having someone so caring and humble as Amanda,who took care of our needs and helped us with any questions we had.
The place is spotless,new machines, and friendly staff!
They are on the pricey side of things,but you’re getting efficient equipment for what you’re paying.
Totally recommend!

You never know with laundromats, even highly rated ones especially ones offering prizes for reviews, but this one lived up to it! could it be any cleaner?! and bathrooms for the public?! and wifi?! we drive fr another town because this one is worth the drive! the card system is fantastic no more quarters 🔥 the machines got our clothes super clean and the dryer was surprisingly quick!

I discovered Pocket Change Laundry just this week. I am relatively new to the area and had seen a flyer for coat donations there.
I took a couple comforters to be washed and the service was great! They returned my items quickly and the laundry itself was clean. Service was friendly too. Prices were reasonable.
I would certainly recommend Pocket Change!

Friendly staff and the place is very clean and the machines are great and the membership is a nice bonus for every 20 dollars you load on the card they give you 2 dollars credit for free

Folks Drycleaners has consistently delivered excellent results. Clothes come back perfectly cleaned, fresh, and ready to wear. The staff is always courteous and professional. Turnaround time is quick, and special requests are handled with care. Highly recommend Folks Drycleaners for anyone in Forest City!

If I could award 0 stars, I would.   I have learned that you MUST check behind any service like this before paying.  My husband's shirt, that really only needed pressing, was returned to me with what appears to be grease spots on the pocket, shoulder, front, and back. We needed this shirt for a wedding this weekend and now are in an awkward situation.  These spots could not have been missed if anyone had looked it over once before putting it the mostly opaque bag. CHECK EVERY GARMENT BEFORE LEAVING!

Very sweet staff. And both were very helpful & answered all my questions! Havent had anything cleaned yet, so will update this review once I do!

I love folks cleaners. Been going there for over 20 years and I’ve never had nothing but great service. I miss seeing Mr Folk there. Hope all is well.

I have always loved going to folks cleaners the people who work there are wonderful there very accommodating the service I give is excellent and I've never had any problems sending clothes to be dry cleaned over there and their prices are quite reasonable and the turnaround is absolutely incredible
