Choose North Ankeny when you are already on the north end of Ankeny Blvd and you want to run big loads yourself overnight. Choose South Ankeny when you want an attendant to take a drop-off bag, or when you searched for an Ankeny laundromat without specifying north. Driving to the wrong Ankeny store is the usual miss, because the boulevard has one of our stores on each end.
The Google listing for North Ankeny should show 125 N Ankeny Blvd and 515-207-4500, and the website on that listing should be the North Ankeny location page. It should not use the South Ankeny address or phone.

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.
