I realize this may come across as spoiling and you're welcome to judge- but can someone please recommend a laundry service that would pick up my son's laundry from camp, was it individually, and return it? This is the first year we won't be upstate for the summer and I always picked up my son's laundry to wash. Any recommendations would be extremely appreciated!

Your laundry service will not be any better than the camp's laundry service Laugh They'll still wash everything together and machine dry everything.

Find out what the camps laundry policy is.
They may not be ok with a private service doing your son's laundry.

Look into SudShare (it’s an app). They pick up, clean, and deliver laundry. You can specify hang dry or delicate load, etc. You Owned by a frum jew which is always a plus!

But I agree, check the camps policy.

Right, good point, I didn't think of that, it would mean letting someone into camp that's not a parent

No laundry service hang dries items. They either wash and dry. Or dry clean. You can sort clothes according to wash vs dry clean and send that way.

Is there a reason you can't send his clothing to the camp laundry? I really never had any issues. For white shirts, I wash them with bleach when the boys get home from camp and they are just fine. T-shirts, sports pants and underclothing are not a problem in regular loads and the dryer.

I also pick up my son’s laundry. But if I’m not able to do it for some reason, he sends to camp wash. Is there a reason that he can’t? Sensitivity to detergents or are you worried about the clothing getting ruined?

Do I need the app to use sudshare, or do they have a website to check it out?

Many camps actually send the laundry to a service. Why don't u find out how the camp deals with the laundry?

2 of the chassidish boys camps I sent had a laundry service wash once a week. The third one had a staff of ladies specifically for it. All 3 camps had an additional laundry charge but 8t was worth it
