Pine Street Laundry — Local services in San Francisco

I live nearby without my own washer/dryer so I kind of have to use this place. If you charge $8-$10 dollars per washing load how on EARTH do you expect people to tote around pounds of quarters in this day and age? I’ve lost money putting a $20 bill in your coin machine, only for it to run out and only give me $15 in quarters. A.) Quarters are a rarity these days and B.) This screams possibility of money laundering/tax evasion (whether that’s the case or not). I understand water prices have increased, but if you are running a “quarters only” business you need to understand that you can’t charge your prices. If you truly need to charge these prices to cover utility bills and your personal cost of living, then you need to realize that requiring 3 lbs of quarters per load is simply unacceptable. Sorry, but this needs to be said. Install some credit/debit card machines. It is nearly 2022, and there is a...

I'm here now and there are 12 dryers, but 5 are out of order (including one large load dryer).

There are 10 affordable washers ($3.50 or less) and 4 of those are out of order. There are 6 $6 washers, and one is out of order. There is one large load $8 washer.

On the plus side, they've been better about keeping the place looking clean, but I'd rather live near a laundromat that had enough machines for more than 2 or 3 people to get their laundry done.

Adding a star...

This place is nothing short than a rip off. Continuing to raise its prices making laundry a very expensive chore in this day and age. Not only is it beyond pricy (about $10) but you need to carry around quarters with you. Oh and the coin machine they have doesn’t work 6 out of 7 days. Along with this, The machines tend to eat your quarters.

This place is a scam to our neighborhood, writing this review because you raised your prices 3 times since I’ve been here in the last six months. We know this place is your “side hustle” but your wrong from profiting off...
