A home ironing service brings a professional to your door, which suits people with limited time. A shop-based service usually means drop-off and collection, often cheaper per kilogram. Ask if the operator irons at home or takes garments away, because transit adds time and a small risk of lost items.
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.
Pre-treatment is usually included for water-based stains like coffee or sweat. Oil, ink, and set-in stains often need separate treatment at 5 to 10 euros extra. Point out stains when you hand over the garments, because once heat is applied, some marks become permanent and the provider will not be liable.
Standard pickup windows run every 2 to 3 days, with delivery 24 to 48 hours after ironing. Some providers offer same-day return if you drop off before 9 am. Confirm whether bags are provided, weigh them in your presence, and keep a copy of the weight ticket for your records.
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.
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.
Providers price by the kilogram or by the piece. Per-kilogram rates suit large weekly bags and lower-cost items. Per-piece pricing suits small loads with delicate garments. Confirm the minimum charge, usually 3 to 5 kilograms, and ask if bags and hangers are included. Mixed pricing structures are common, so request a written quote based on your last receipt.
Each garment carries a care label with temperature and method symbols. Cotton tolerates 200°C, polyester needs 150°C, silk stays below 140°C, and wool often requires steam without direct contact. Items missing labels are handled at lower temperatures, which may leave creases. Ask how the provider handles unlabeled or worn labels before dropping off the load.
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.
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.
