Mr. Clean is a laundry services operation with outlets throughout the Klang Valley. There is one in Taman Danau Desa, and after a thorough evaluation of the mound of dirty laundry I have accumulated since I arrived in KL, I decided that a visit to the launderette (or Kedai Dobi as we Malaysians call it) was in order.
The operation of Mr. Clean surprised me - it wasn't the run down kedai dobi that most laundry and dry cleaning service operations are. This one is fully air conditioned, clean and professional. I had a laundry bag containing about 3-5 kgs of unwashed attire (we don't have a washing machine here) and the Mr. Clean receptionist only quoted me RM 10.50. That's a very cheap price for KL.
The basic laundry services which I opted for is a same day service so I went to collect my laundry just now after dropping it off this morning. The night lighting affords a better view of the operations inside and the industry is palpable - there is a man ironing a shirt, another one hanging it on hangers and one woman standing there scratching her head.
The laundry I dropped off this morning was already waiting for me and everything was neatly folded and put into one of their mr.clean bags. Amazing! I don't even fold my own clothes! ;)
There even have complimentary mints on the counter to boot! mr.clean comes highly recommended from me. It's a great place, nice and clean.
