A standard ironing service takes in household garments, household linens, and basic workwear. Most providers handle shirts, blouses, trousers, dresses, tablecloths, napkins, and bed sheets. Some skip heavy items like curtains or padded coats. Ask for the full item list before booking. Typical turnaround runs 24 to 72 hours, depending on volume and pickup schedule.
Check every label before pickup. Cotton tolerates 200 degrees, polyester needs 150, silk and wool stay below 110. A professional should sort by temperature setting before starting. If your wardrobe mixes rayon, linen, and denim, mention the mix upfront so the operator plans separate ironing passes.
Hand over items in a clean cloth bag, never plastic, which traps moisture and causes mildew. Sort shirts, trousers, and linen before pickup to speed counting and reduce mix-ups. Empty all pockets. Check pockets again at delivery, since pens, lighters, and lip balms melt easily under a hot press and ruin fabric permanently.
Monthly plans usually include 5 to 10 kilograms of ironing at 10 to 20 percent below the per-order rate. Most contracts require 30 days notice to cancel, and unused weight rarely carries over. Read the fine print on auto-renewal, and ask whether you can pause the plan during travel periods.
Steam ironing uses a handheld steamer that removes light wrinkles in 3 to 5 minutes per shirt. Press ironing uses a heated metal plate with pressure, delivering sharper creases on trousers and dress shirts. Ask which method the operator uses, because delicate fabrics like silk need steam, not direct press contact.
Regular turnaround is 48 hours for bags under 7 kilograms. Heavy weeks, holidays, and wedding seasons push delivery to 4 to 5 days. Some providers batch work by fabric type, which extends timing. Book 5 to 7 days ahead during November and December. Ask for a realistic date before confirming the order, not a best-case estimate.
Standard liability covers 10 times the ironing cost per item, often capped at 50 euros total. Higher-value garments like suits or silk dresses may need a separate declaration. Ask for written proof of insurance, and check whether the policy covers heat damage, shrinkage, and loss during transport.
Most providers quote per kilogram of dry weight, typically 4 to 8 euros, or per piece for shirts at 2 to 4 euros. Watch for minimum order fees, usually 15 to 20 euros, and surcharges for starch, pleats, or express turnaround. Always request a full written quote before handing over clothes.
Most services offer door pickup and delivery within a fixed area, often 5 to 10 kilometres from the base. Some charge per kilometre outside that zone. Pickup windows usually span 2 to 4 hours. Same-day return is rare and costs extra. Ask about missed-pickup policies and whether someone must be home to hand over the bag.
Group clothes by fabric and washing temperature before pickup. Use cotton bags, not plastic, which traps moisture and causes mildew. Provide a list with item counts, and keep one copy for yourself. Photograph any existing damage, loose buttons, or tears so the operator can record them on the receipt.
