I take my comforters to a laundromat on Newton Road in North Raleigh. Off Six Forks Road. About 10 min. from Brier Creek. Laundry Express
You can do it yourself or there is a lady there that will do it for you, at an extra charge.
Very clean place.
Thanks, I'd seen this on the map but hadn't realized it wasn't that far away.
Their advertising doesn't say if it has a spinner. Do you remember?
Thank you for policing the forums for repeat questions.
It's comforting that you think my situation or the locations and availability of this service hasn't changed in the last 4+ years.
Actually, in the 11 years since I've moved to Brier Creek, I've asked this every few years because I'm currently driving about 20 minutes to a Laundromat that has all I want, but it's really far away. I was hoping I'd missed one opening up (or cleaning up) that was closer.
Policing? No, just a good memory.
Don't expect a laundromat to open in the Brief Creek area anytime soon. It's a dying business.
Since you have asked the same question several times, I guess its something that you are dissatisfied with. After 11 years, maybe its time for you to look at other living arrangements.
I would be dissatisfied, too. The hassle of lugging laundry, hoarding coins, wasting time sitting around a laundymat, the sanitation issues - No thanks. The fact that there are so few laundrymats in the area shows that I'm not alone.

This post right here had me literally laughing out loud. You remember a post from 4 years ago about a laundry mat?????????? WOW!!! I cant even remember what I ate for my last meal sometimes! LOL
Ive been to a couple of laundrymats in the past couple of years when my washer and/or dryer broke and I dont think they are a dying breed at all! Just what I saw...very very busy!

I'm in Brier Creek area too. When my washer died, the laundry mat off Newton was my go to. It is clean and reasonably priced. There are several varieties of washers and dryers.
Am I the only one who doesn't know what a spinner is?
It's a laundry centrifuge, a bit smaller than a 55-gallon drum, used for laundry items that withhold a lot of water after the washer's spin cycle. It has massive springs so an imbalanced load doesn't cause it to fly away.
They're very helpful for towels, blankets, comforters, and pillows that come out of the washer still quite damp. Run then through the spinner first, and you cut down the dryer time by a huge amount.
I lived in Charlotte before here, and had a laundromat just down the road with one. I'd do a full commercial sized washer with all my towels (beach and otherwise), and spin them, and then 25 min on the dryer. When the spinner broke, I'd have to split the towels into 2 dryers and still took extra time.
