About Ironing Service
Pricing Models and Hidden Fees
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.
Choosing Between In-House and Shop Ironing
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.
Common complaints and how to avoid them
Frequent complaints include missing items, scorched fabric, shiny marks on dark cotton, and returned creases. To prevent these, count items together at pickup, point out delicate fabrics, request lower temperatures for darks, and inspect the load on receipt before signing the delivery note. Unreported issues are almost impossible to claim later, so check on the spot.
Subscription versus one-off orders
Subscriptions cut per-kilogram rates by 10 to 20 percent on fixed weekly or bi-weekly pickups. Cancellation terms usually require 7 to 14 days' notice. One-off orders suit occasional needs but rarely include free pickup. Choose subscription only if the household generates at least 4 kilograms of ironing per week for several months.
Eco and hypoallergenic options
Some providers use distilled water in steam irons to reduce mineral residue. Others offer fragrance-free finishing for sensitive skin, useful for baby clothes and bedding. Eco-friendly starch alternatives exist for those avoiding aerosol sprays. Confirm these options are standard or cost extra. Most providers do not list hypoallergenic treatment on the regular invoice.
Damage, loss, and liability limits
Reputable services carry insurance covering loss or damage, usually capped at a multiple of the service cost per garment. Photographic proof of condition is recommended at handover for valuable items, including silk shirts and wool suits. Ask for a written liability note. Pre-existing wear, such as thinning fabric, is not covered.
How garments should be handed over
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.
Turnaround times and seasonal delays
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.
Pickup and delivery logistics
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.
Stain pre-treatment and colour bleeding
Standard ironing does not include stain removal. Visible marks require pre-treatment, usually as an extra paid step. Dark and light items must be separated to prevent dye transfer during steam exposure. New dark fabrics often bleed, especially reds and navies. Point out stains at drop-off and request confirmation that they were treated before ironing.
