Clive Laundromat on Clark Street

Table of Contents
The Clive store is on Clark Street, which is why regulars call it Clark Street and the map pin says Clive. The address is 8585 Clark St, Clive, IA 50325. The phone is 515-218-8020. It is a Clive address, not a Des Moines street, and it is the west-metro store for people coming from Clive, West Des Moines, and Urbandale who do not want to drive to Merle Hay or Fleur.
This floor is open 24/7 for self-service and it is one of the three drop-off wash-and-fold stores. The largest washer published here is 120 lb, which is the size to look for when a comforter or several towels will not fit a home washer. Payment is FasCard, the same card family as the other FasCard stores. It is not the Laundroworks system used at East 33rd.
The Google listing for Clive should match 8585 Clark St, Clive, IA 50325 and 515-218-8020, and the website on that listing should be the Clive location page.
Store facts for Clive#
The Laundry Place Clive is at 8585 Clark St, Clive, IA 50325. Phone 515-218-8020.
Self-service hours: Open 24/7. Open doors overnight do not mean an attendant is on site overnight.
The location page lists 36 washers and 45 dryers. Live availability on that page is the count to trust when you are deciding whether to drive over. The largest washer published for this store is 120 lb. Published washer sizes are 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 120 lb.
Payment uses a FasCard laundry card. You can load the card at the kiosk. The check-balance page explains kiosk reloads, the convenience fee, and the difference between a kiosk load and swiping a bank card on a machine reader. East 33rd does not use this FasCard.
In-store wash-and-fold drop-off is offered at this store, along with Merle Hay, Clive, and South Ankeny. Drop-off needs an attendant on site. Store hours and staffed drop-off hours are not the same thing. Call 515-218-8020 or check the location page for today's attendant hours. Bulky-item pickup (rugs, pillows, and similar pieces) can be scheduled from this store. Everyday wash and fold is in-store drop-off, not a house-to-house laundry route. See the pickup and delivery page and the drop-off page. This page does not quote a per-pound price. The drop-off page carries the live rate.
The canonical page for this store is the Clive location page. That is the URL the Google listing should use. This guide explains how to choose the store. The location page is where hours, the map, and the live floor stay current. All nine stores are on the locations page. Posted hours for the fleet are on the hours page.
How to plan the visit#
- Sort colors and bulky items before you leave. A comforter needs a large washer, and mixing it with jeans wastes the drum.
- Bring your laundry card, or plan to add value at the kiosk before you start a machine.
- Check the location page for live machine availability if the trip is time-sensitive.
- If you need drop-off, confirm you are at Merle Hay, Clive, or South Ankeny, and call ahead for attendant hours.
- If you need a machine after midnight, use a store whose hours say open 24/7. University, Fleur Drive, and SE 14th close at midnight.
