About Logan Square Laundry
Logan Square Laundry sits on 3571 W Armitage Ave in Logan Square, one of the coin-operated laundromat / wash-and-fold / pickup and delivery options Chicago residents in this part of the city fall back on when there is no washer in the apartment. It is a neighborhood-scale operation rather than a chain flagship, and most of the people using it live within a ten-minute walk or a short bus ride of the door.
Atmosphere-wise, expect a bright, busy, unpretentious room. It is loud in the way every laundromat is loud — drum hum, coins, the occasional buzzer — and people generally keep to their own machines. Weekday mornings feel almost empty, which is when regulars who work from home get their entire week of washing done in one uninterrupted sitting.
On the machine side, visitors report a mix of standard drums plus a bank of larger front loaders, including roughly 4 mega-capacity 50lb washers. That matters more than it sounds: a king comforter, a sleeping bag or three weeks of towels all wash properly in an oversized drum and badly in a home-size one. Split-and-run works too — several washers going at once turns a four-hour job into ninety minutes.
Payment is reported as quarters-only, so plan for it — bring a roll of coins or use the change machine before you start loading, because feeding a busy floor with singles is how a simple errand turns into an hour of standing around.
Cleanliness reports are solid without being spotless: this is a working room, so expect the odd stray sock and a folding table that needs a wipe before you use it. Parking is easier here than at most Chicago laundromats because off-street or shared-lot parking is reported at the address, which is worth a lot when you are carrying two hampers.
