Bubbleworks alternative

Yeah I took a comforter to Bubbleworks once and it came back smelling like piss & dirty jeans. NOT GOOD. I took it to a different laundrymat and washed it myself and never went back to that place.

When I did my laundry at clean rite, it never smelled fresh. There was something ineffectual about their machines. I don't know what was wrong with them! I tried all different kinds of detergent and nothing worked.

I use the place at Underhill & Sterling. Never had a problem, very friendly. $.70/pound I think? Closed Tuesdays.

ouch. laundry.bz, despite their purported prospect heights service, does not service my area. F**K you, laundry.bz - you're totally fucking retarded.

Ali keeps my biz.

That Laundry City (king?) on Grand and Prospect. Is pretty good for doing your laundry there. Even on weekends I can get a dryer, which is saying a lot for the amount of people in there.

But dropping off!!!!??? The few times I did it.. it was never ready when they said it would be and I had to forfiet my laundry for over 3 days.

I thought ALL places have same day pickup if you drop off in the AM... am I wrong? Where can I get this type of service... please??? ](*,)

Oh Thank you, thank you, thank you.

OH, but I live on Bergen/Washington... anyone know anything closer?

So, I am having a laundry EMERGENCY in that I've failed to do any for, oh, about a month, and can't possibly carry all I need for drop off. Needing a place that does free pickup/delivery, must accept credit cards (sadly laundry.bz is cash only, and I live, breath and eat the plastic), and does laundry by pound and drycleaning, it looked like Bubbleworks was my only alternative. First pickup was scheduled 12-4 today for return in a 12-4 window Sunday. It's 4:18 and they have not showed up and allegedly cannot locate the driver, nor can they be bothered to care that Mr. Bunnycup has sat home unable to leave for four hours and can't continue to do so endlessly in hopes a laundry guy can find room in his busy schedule to keep the appointment they offered. Needless to say, before entrusting $500 worth or more (like I said, it's got to be 50 pounds if it's an ounce) of my and Mr. Bunnycup's clothes to them, in light of the poor service and the complaints here I told them not to bother coming - not to be snooty about my time here, but I am left with a REALLY poor, unprofessional, untrustworthy feeling about Bubbleworks.

I am going to have to work out some new, Bubbleworks-free solution.

Subject: BUBBLE WORKS RUINED MY JACKET

Hello,

In Regards to the services that have been Provided to me by your company: Bubble Works at: 718 WASHINGTON AVENUE (BET) PROSPECT & PARK PL
BROOKLYN N.Y. 11238

My name is David Tucker, and I will be trying to get in Contact with the NCA and anyone I can that will help with this matter, of which I am VERY NOT HAPPY WITH!
I just received a delivery of Laundry that I sent in a week ago, and upon opening the bag, I have a Jacket that was faded and discolored to the extreme and wrinkled and it's just terrible.
I am looking at Compensation as this jacket cost me $60.00, and I would like to know what will be done about this matter? I think your services are unprofessional and DOWN RIGHT CLASSLESS.
No one even bothered to call me and tell me that they ruined my clothing. ONLY to put in in the bag , and try to fold it up, and make it seem like it was OK! WELL, IT IS NOT!

You have the nerve to charge me a 10% driver tip, that is mandatory, and I am not sure if it's even legal to do so.

I can be contacted at: ****** asap. I will be waiting to hear from someone, as this will not just slide with me! I'm not sure how many other people your company has done this to, but it stops now!

iS THERE ANY LEGAL GROUND THAT I MAY HAVE HERE, to take this place to small claims court?
CAN SOMEONE CONTACT ME @: [email protected]

I have tried to get in contact with a manager, but the girl says he stepped out. He always seems to step out when there is a complaint. He never calls back, but he's got the right Black Man this time! I will go up to 718 washington avenue myself! I will file a fraud charge on my card and I want my $60.00 for my Jacket!

Doesn't look like it. I am also in need of a pickup service.

I like Joe's also. I'm only just now seeing how their dry cleaning is but their laundry work is good and the delivery folks are prompt & professional.

(for the record, I don't know Joe and have no stake in his business)

i love laundry.bz
Sorry they dont service you alafairnada! (TSD)
but..im sort of anal (TdefinitelySD) about having my clothes folded nicely. I used the 2way for awhile but i broke my foot and they dont pick up and deliver so i started using laundry.bz they are amazing. always on time. stuff smells good. and folded beautifully.
i know Joe personally so i feel like it would be weird to have him washing my undies. Hes a LOVELY man though.

also I swear I got a flyer the other day for a new laundry place somewhere near the Old Jewish Hospital apartments... I think its in one of the buildings?

I know this is an old thread but i did not want to make a new one.

I will not be going back to this place. I live just a block away from them so I have lazily been dropping off my laundry there and coming by to pick it up. They always usually tell me come by at 6pm usually two days later but always at 6pm. So 6:15pm I swing by and at least half the time (most likely more) I am told its not ready and to come back at 7pm, so I come back at 7pm and at least half those times they tell me its still not ready. They just run a shitty company, it really pisses me when you pay money for a service and the company says one thing and consistently does another without any apology. I got things I would like to do and if I make it a point to be around at a certain time to pick up my laundry as I was told I expect to pick up my laundry. I mean a phone call saying its not ready would do fine but its the fact I make sure I am home on the day/time they tell me and than its not done, than I wait an hour, "oh still not done, sorry", come back tomorrow around 6pm. wtf!?!

Have you guys tried the new laundromate on St Marks and Classon? They have free delivery, new machines and free dryer.
