Laundry Lounge

A new laundromat called Laundry Lounge will be opening later this year at 1030 Mount Vernon Road, just outside of Downtown Cedar Rapids. The Facebook page for the business calls it "Cedar Rapids’ cleanest & quirkiest laundromat!"

Laundry Lounge is owned by Cheyanne and Seth Carroll, and Cheyanne told me that the goal of the business is "to bring some comfort and fun to a normally mundane, tedious experience." Here are some of the more unique features of Laundry Lounge:

  • A Lux UV Sanitizing System
  • State-of-the-Art Touchscreen Equipment With Faster Wash/Dry Times
  • Eco-Friendly Soap Options
  • A Wash/Dry/Fold Service
  • Free Coffee on Weekends
  • Comfortable Seating
  • A Kids’ Corner
  • Video Games
  • An ATM
  • Vending Machines

Grand Opening

It's still too early to determine an official opening date for Laundry Lounge, but co-owner Cheyanne says that they are shooting for mid-October. They plan to run specials and promotions, and have a big grand opening celebration. For the latest updates from Laundry Lounge, you can follow the business' official Facebook page HERE.
