Laundry & Dry Cleaning Cost Calculator

How Much Does a Load of Laundry Cost?

At our real DFW pricing, wash & fold runs $2.99 per pound, so the cost of laundry per load comes down to how much a load actually weighs. A typical load of everyday clothes — shirts, jeans, a few towels — usually lands between 10 and 15 lb, putting most single loads in the $29.90 to $44.85 range. A heavier family load with bedding or comforters mixed in can run higher. Rather than guess, use the calculator above to enter exactly what you're washing.

If you're trying to estimate laundry cost per month rather than per load, most households doing a weekly wash-and-fold pickup land somewhere between $40 and $120 a month depending on household size — and the $50/month subscription plan knocks 30% off that, which is usually worth it once you're ordering regularly.

Is laundry priced per load, or per item?

Both, depending on what you're sending. Everyday wash & fold items (shirts, pants, towels, sheets) are priced by weight — the per-pound rate above. Dry cleaning, sarees, and other specialty garments are priced per item instead, since weight alone doesn't reflect the fabric care or handling they need. This calculator covers both at once.

Use the laundry weight calculator first to estimate pounds from item counts, then bring that number back here for a cost estimate.
