Wash and Fold Drop-Off in Des Moines

Table of Contents
Wash-and-fold drop-off is not at every Laundry Place. It is at Merle Hay, Clive, and South Ankeny only. The other six stores are self-service: you stay with your laundry and run the machines yourself.
Stores that take drop-off#
- Merle Hay Road — 4347 Merle Hay Rd, Des Moines, IA 50310 — 515-505-3509 — Open 24/7
- Clive — 8585 Clark St, Clive, IA 50325 — 515-218-8020 — Open 24/7
- South Ankeny — 308 S Ankeny Blvd, Ankeny, IA 50023 — 515-528-4333 — Open 24/7
Attendant hours are the drop-off window. Merle Hay, Clive, and the Ankeny stores are open 24/7 for self-service, and that overnight access is not the drop-off desk. Call the store phone above, or open the location page, before you leave a bag.
Per-pound pricing is on the drop-off page. This article does not repeat a dollar amount, because the live rate belongs on that page. Bulky pickup (rugs, pillows, and similar) is also scheduled from these three stores. See pickup and delivery. That pickup catalog is not everyday clothing wash and fold.

If a guide, a map listing, or an old article says drop-off is available at most locations, that claim is wrong. Use this list.
Frequently asked questions#
Which Laundry Place stores take wash-and-fold drop-off?#
Only Merle Hay, Clive, and South Ankeny. Every other store is self-service.
Can I drop off laundry after midnight because the store is 24 hours?#
No. Drop-off follows attendant hours. A 24/7 self-service floor can be open when nobody is there to take a bag. Call the store or read today's attendant hours on the location page.
Is everyday wash and fold picked up at my house?#
Everyday per-pound wash and fold is in-store drop-off at Merle Hay, Clive, and South Ankeny. Pickup from those three stores is for bulky items such as rugs and pillows, not a weekly clothing route.
