Cost of Food Vs Laundry Service

5 Oclock dinner time cost savings

Time-Saving = Cost Saving

We all know the feeling: it’s dinnertime, the kids are hungry, the clock is ticking—and you just don’t feel like cooking. Ordering a pizza delivery seems like a lifesaver. But have you ever stopped to compare the cost and time of laundry to your favorite takeout? Let’s break it down.

Why Laundry Costs Less

A family of four ordering pizza delivery for one meal can easily spend $40 or more. That’s one dinner. Now, consider this: washing a week’s worth of laundry for the same family—about 50 pounds—costs just $1.79 per pound. In other words, around $90 for the entire week. At first glance, it seems like more money—but here’s the secret: you’re getting an entire week of laundry done versus one meal. That’s real value!

Time is Money

Cooking a meal at home might take 30 minutes, but laundry? Doing it yourself can easily take 4 hours a week—washing, drying, folding, and putting it all away. That’s 4 hours of your life spent wrestling with clothes, detergent, and the never-ending piles of laundry.

With our $1.79/lb laundry service, you can reclaim those 4 hours while we wash, dry, and fold your laundry for you. That’s 4 hours you could spend with your family, catching up on your favorite show, or even just relaxing. And the best part is, you’re freeing up time every single week, not just for dinner.

Experience Vs Cost

  • Pizza delivery: $40+, saves you 30-60 minutes of meal prep time. = $40/hr
  • Laundry service for a week: approx $71-90, saves you 4+ hours of work = $22/hr

Yes, the upfront cost is higher than a single pizza—but the value per hour saved and the stress-free convenience make our service an absolute win.

Think About It This Way:
Buying a dinner feeds your family for one meal. However, having us handle your laundry takes care of your family for the entire week—you get your time back, your home stays clean, and your family stays happy.

So next time you think about the cost of convenience, remember: $1.79/lb for your laundry isn’t just affordable—it’s priceless when you consider the time and energy you save.
