Only Star Laundry Club Michigan is taking offers, as a pre-sale. Star Laundry Club Orem, Brighton and Nashua are filled by Star Laundry Club’s own machines; none were sold through AirLaundry. Cycles a day are each host’s figure for its store, not a forecast or a promise of what your machines will earn.
Small beginnings. Real ownership.
An everyday business.
A simpler way in.
You don’t need to buy the laundromat to own a piece of its best location. Build a portfolio of machines on a floor that already has the customers.
- 01
Pick the location.
Browse working laundromats. Judge the foot traffic and the neighborhood yourself, then choose the washers and dryers you want, each with its own serial number, floor position and price.
- 02
Make them yours.
Choose your terms and sign the agreements before anything is charged.
- 03
Follow every month.
See turns, revenue and itemized costs for every machine. The host remits the rest to your bank. Title passes to you when your machines are paid off.
You own the machines.
The host runs the store.
You judge the location and the foot traffic. Built for people who want an asset, not staff to hire and manage.
Your part.
Build your portfolio.
- Choose the location and the machines.
- Finance the balance or pay in full.
- Review your statement and receive the net remittance.
Title to your machines transfers to you when they are paid off — every machine in a package together. The machines are your asset, so their depreciation is yours to claim. Ask your tax advisor how it applies to you.
The host’s part.
Run the business.
- Hire and manage the staff.
- Keep the store open, clean and marketed.
- Arrange repairs and upkeep.
- Report turns and revenue, itemize costs, and remit the rest.
The host sets the daily spot rent for each type of machine on the floor.
Let’s run a load of numbers
Your machines.
One month.
Every dollar.
A hypothetical package of 8 machines: 2 × 40 lb washers, 2 × 60 lb washers, 4 × 75 lb dryers. Change the daily turns to see how usage changes the picture.
A turn is one paid cycle. This is an example, not a forecast.
What exactly am I buying?
Specific washers and dryers in a working laundromat, each with its own serial number, size, age, brand and price. You own the machines, and they run in your host’s store, bringing in revenue that is yours.
You are not buying a share of the store or the business. You also lease the floor spot each machine stands on, and the host runs the store where your machines operate.
How and how often do I get paid?
Monthly, by the host. The host collects what your machines earn, records each machine’s turns and revenue, closes the month, and pays what’s left after costs and AirLaundry’s fee into your bank account.
Are returns guaranteed?
No. Any figures we show are illustrations, not promises. What your machines earn depends on how busy the store is, the machines’ positions, pricing, the season and many other factors, such as the store’s wash & fold activity and the commercial and government contracts it serves. When machines run fewer cycles, costs can exceed revenue, just as in any business.
My machine breaks?
The machine is yours, so repairs and replacements are yours to pay for. The host will let you know when a machine needs attention and whether it should be repaired or replaced. The decision is yours, but make it promptly: a machine that’s out of service earns nothing, and downtime hurts the store’s reputation.
Can I cancel after paying?
While AirLaundry still holds your payment, the sale can be cancelled only if both you and the host agree. You are refunded your payment. AirLaundry’s fee, which you paid as your deposit, is not refunded. Once the payment has been passed to the host, the sale can’t be cancelled.
