From online groceries to food delivery services and parcel delivery, Honestbee has been a Singaporean’s best bet when it came to seeking more convenient ways of doing everyday tasks. And in late 2016, they launched an online laundry and dry cleaning service that’s actually pretty good and affordable. They offer everything from a simple wash and iron to premium dry cleaning services.

There’s no minimum order required and users can enjoy on-demand pickup and delivery from 1pm to 10pm daily. You can even schedule it any day of the week and receive fresh and clean laundry in just two days. Bonus? Prices start as low as $2.90 (ironing only).

Squirreled away at Perak Street is the competitively priced Little India Laundromat. Apart from its round-the-clock service, its biggest selling point is how affordable yet fuss-free the service is. A 14kg wash with soap will cost you $8—a steal compared to other laundry services in the list. The only caveat is that it’s coin operated so you’d have to do most of the heavy lifting yourself, but once it’s in their European washing machines, all you have to do is sit back and relax. They also offer free wifi so you can keep yourself entertained on with your smart devices. And once your laundry is done, you can toss them into the dryer for a very low price of $1 per 5 minutes for a 14kg load. Bonus? The staff there are friendly and provide great customer service. What more could you ask for?

Little India Laundromat is located at 29 Perak Road, Singapore 208146.
