canyoncam Posted June 11, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I have seen different info on this but the latest I can find is from 2014. Does it exist and how much are my questions. I don't sail for another ten months but already thinking of what to pack!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted June 11, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 11, 2016 There are 3 or 4 self service laundries on each ship. The each have 3-4 washers and dryers. Each costs $3.25 to wash and $3.25 to dry. Detergent is sold for $1.50 per box. I usually bring purell 3n1 sheets, but I like Bounce dryer sheets so I bring them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You pay using your S&S card. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowman1 Posted June 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Was on the Sunshine in March - there are point of sale machines in the laundry rooms to charge directly to your sign and sail card, so no need to bring quarters. We brought tide laundry pods and they worked great! Each laundry room also has an iron and small board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canyoncam Posted June 11, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thanks all. Wow....$3.25!!! Just off Disney last month and it was only $1 each to wash or dry. But I guess I am saving a ton on the cruise itself so that's ok. I am picky over my soap so planned on bringing that already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drolltroll Posted June 11, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 11, 2016 If you are picky, this may not work for you but that valet bag was only $15 the last time I cruised. If you roll your items really really tight, you will be amazed how much you can get in that bag. You get it back the next day or so very clean and neatly folded. I guess if you are wearing 3-4 outfits a day you better stick with doing your own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the valet bag and of course stuff it with as much as possible. My clothes were returned folded but so wrinkled they were barely wearable. I was glad I had some anti-wrinkle spray with me.
