4. What is HassleFree laundry?
HassleFree is our promise. We provide three HassleFree bags: standard (about two loads), luxe (about four loads), mini (a perfect add-on for whites or baby clothes) and our HassleFree garment (for those clothes that need to be hung). These are all priced per bag. That means no weighing or guessing!
5. What is a typical day like for you and your team?
From top to bottom, our days revolve around family. Much like many other families, we get up and wrangle the kids to get the day started. We pick up, deliver, wash, fold and hang. Everyone has a role in the company, from our amazing laundry experts who handle our clients’ laundry to our executive team strategizing for growth. Once the day ends, we make sure to spend quality family time with those that mean the most.
6. What sets Get It Washed apart?
We provide simplified, no-weigh pricing, taking out all the guesswork. There are no memberships or long-term contracts. We focus on family first.

We work to be eco-friendly, from our durable and multipurpose bags to our detergents. We are also a woman- and Black-owned business focused on not only providing a HassleFree experience, but mentoring others looking to start their own business and launch their dreams.
