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.
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.
New dark fabrics, especially indigo denim and red cotton, can bleed during steam contact. Reputable operators separate loads by colour and test suspect items with a damp cloth on a hidden seam. Ask how they handle new garments, and keep the first 2 washes of dark clothes separate yourself.
Steam ironing uses a hand-held iron on a flat board. Press ironing uses a heated metal plate or rotary press, often yielding flatter results on cotton and linen shirts. Cotton sheets benefit from rotary pressing. Delicate silks need lower temperature and steam only. Ask which method the provider uses for each fabric in your load.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Off-peak turnaround is 48 to 72 hours. During December, Easter, and wedding season, expect delays of 3 to 5 extra days. Book 2 weeks ahead for holidays, and ask about a guaranteed delivery slot rather than a vague morning or afternoon window. Late penalties should be written into the receipt.
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.
