Being a Clotheslyner
Washer and dryer, drying rack, clothesline, or something to hang dry clothes, laundry detergent, clear plastic bags, laundry baskets, and a car.
Being a Cotheslyner in an established market is very competitive. The more orders you complete, the higher ratings you get.
There are no limits to the number of orders. As long as you can handle the workload of the laundry you will not stop receiving an order unless you’re nonactive.
You must offer our required add ons, but the recommended ones you do not. Offering recommended add-ons will allow you to receive more orders and make more cash money!
Cold unless otherwise instructed by the customer in the order details.
Never set the dryer to high heat. It will ruin specific garments, and customers will file a claim against you. Instead, use medium heat. If your customer includes delicates, which will be indicated in your app, use low heat on them.
The deadline for pickup and delivery is 24-48 hours depending on your order. You can deliver the order back early at the scheduled time with the customer.
Only with the customer’s permission.
