Every laundry app in Singapore advertises a per-kg rate, and on a normal load almost none of them let you pay it, because nearly every one sets a floor at about $40. Piing! charges $5/kg, the lowest number on this list, but a 6kg load is $30 plus a $9.99 delivery fee below its $40 free-delivery bar: $39.99. Laundryheap's $34.90 6kg bag looks cheaper until its own terms apply the $40 minimum charged on every Singapore order, so the same load costs $40. The Laundry Store's booking system takes load washes from 8kg at $5/kg, which is $40 before GST. Tumble's pay-as-you-go $7/kg cannot be booked below $50, and Eazihome charges its $70 minimum even when your order is smaller ($50 for members). The cheapest kilo anyone here publishes is in none of the headlines: The Care's Extra Large plan is $220 a month for four 15kg bags, which is 60kg at $3.67/kg. Every price, minimum and outlet list below was re-checked against each company's own site, terms or ordering system on 27 September 2026.
Laundry pickup in Singapore runs from a $40 floor at most services to a $70 bill before anyone will collect, and the gate matters far more than the per-kilo rate.
> Quick view: cheapest single 6kg load is Piing! at $39.99 ($30 plus a $9.99 delivery fee), a cent under Laundryheap's $40 minimum. Cheapest kilo is The Care's $220-a-month Extra Large plan, $3.67/kg. Watch the floors: Tumble $50, Eazihome $70.
Prices wash-and-fold by the bag rather than the kilo, which keeps a big mixed load simple even though its effective rate isn't the lowest here: $34.90 for 6kg washed all together, $69.80 for 12kg split into separate lights and darks loads, and $6.45 for each additional kilo. Collection and delivery are free, but its Singapore terms and FAQ set a $40 minimum order value and charge any smaller order $40, so the 6kg bag really costs $40 and a handful of shirts does too. Standard turnaround is 24 to 48 hours, the fastest default on this list. Dry cleaning is per garment and cheap for shirts: $6.50 on a hanger, $8.50 folded, $9.50 for a delicate shirt, $7.00 for a T-shirt, $9.00 for trousers or jeans, $13.45 for a jacket or blazer, $20.95 for a two-piece suit and $26.95 for three. Ironing-only is a separate menu at $5.90 a shirt, $4.80 a blouse and $8.00 a bedsheet. Bed sheets are a flat $10 in any size and duvet covers $16 in any size, which is unusually simple. Curtains are a 7-day service at $9 a piece for day curtains and $9/kg for blackout; duvets and bulky items run 3 days. One change since we first published: Laundryheap has taken the item-by-item list off its Singapore pricing page, which now shows only the service tiles and quotes exact prices inside the booking flow. The per-item figures above were read off that list while it was still published; the $34.90 for 6kg headline is still on its Singapore homepage, alongside dry cleaning from $2.90 and ironing from $3.50. Worth knowing: Laundryheap does not own the plant, and says orders are cleaned by vetted local partner facilities, which is the trade-off for the speed and the island-wide coverage. Items are washed at 30C and tumble-dried, with 60C available on request, and no ironing is included in wash-and-fold. Best for: a load big enough to clear the $40 minimum, and anyone who wants it back tomorrow without paying a rush surcharge.
Free collection and delivery on every order and a student discount scheme listed on its own site; orders under $40 are charged $40
Sells wash-and-fold as three fixed bags, and the largest one is the quiet bargain of this entire comparison: Regular 5kg $30, Large 10kg $54, and Extra Large 15kg $73.50, which works out to $4.90 a kilo, below Tumble's best subscription rate of $5.00 and with no subscription required to get it. Free delivery starts above $60, so the 10kg and 15kg bags clear it and the 5kg one doesn't. Per-piece laundry is $7 for a shirt, blouse or T-shirt ($10 branded), $11 for a jacket or blazer, $5.50 for ironing a single item and $49 for a leather jacket. Bedsheets are $12 to launder a queen and $15 to dry clean it; sneakers $21. If you'd rather commit monthly, the plans are where the real floor sits: LITE at $150 for four 5kg bags, MAX at $170 for four 10kg bags, IRON at $140 for 24 ironed items, IRON & WASH at $150 for 24 washed-and-ironed items, and, easiest to miss because it appears only in the subscription table rather than the marketing, an Extra Large Wash & Fold plan at $220 a month for four 15kg bags. That last one is 60kg of laundry a month with collection and delivery included, or $3.67 a kilo, the lowest published number in this guide by a clear margin, and it undercuts the MAX plan's $4.25. The company's own ordering app is currently advertising 10% off for three months on a subscription. It is also the only service here that cleans baby gear, strollers and car seats, dropped off or collected, and it sends a team to your home for sofas, mattresses, carpets and in-place curtain steam cleaning. Counters at Tampines Mall B2-K1, FairPrice JEM and FairPrice NEX; its Choa Chu Kang counter at Lot One B2-K1 is still listed as temporarily closed. Best for: big households, and anyone whose laundry pile is genuinely 10kg-plus a week.
10% off for 3 months on the laundry subscription, plus free delivery on any order above $60 (live on its ordering app, 14 Sep 2026)
The cheapest per-kilo number in Singapore that we could verify on a company's own site, and its own live pricing feed still returns it: $5.00/kg for wash-and-fold with a 5kg minimum, returned in 2 days on Regular, or $7.00/kg on Express for next-day return. The catch is the gate rather than the rate. Free delivery needs an order value of $40, and anything below that carries a $9.99 delivery charge, so a 5kg minimum order costs $25 of washing plus $9.99, and a 6kg load lands at $39.99 rather than $30. That is still the cheapest 6kg bill on this list, a cent under Laundryheap's $40 minimum, and from roughly 8kg the $5 rate is really $5. One thing to check in the app: Piing!'s redesigned homepage now advertises wash-and-fold at $6.95/kg and 20% off a first order, while its wash-and-fold page and live pricing feed still returned $5.00 Regular and $7.00 Express on 14 Sep 2026. Dry cleaning and wash-and-iron are per piece and mid-market: T-shirt $7, polo tee and shirt on a hanger $7.50, shirt folded $8.50, blouse $7.90, jeans, shorts and trousers $8.50, skirt $9.50, jacket suit $13.50, two-piece suit $21, three-piece $27, dress $16.90, cheongsam $20, baju kurung $19, saree $21, and a wedding dress at $228. What you're really buying is the tracking: every garment gets a QR code, the app logs brand and colour, and you can follow an order through pickup, processing, washing, ironing, packing and delivery, with a photo inventory taken at collection. Pickup and delivery run six days a week in two-hour slots from 1pm, until 10pm on its wash-and-fold page (its FAQ and homepage now say 11pm), or you can pick the cheaper Anytime Slot and let them come any time from 3pm to 10pm. Its FAQ confirms a $10 newsletter credit for new signups and a referral scheme paying $15 to both sides, redeemable above $25. One thing to know before you shortlist: KnocKnocK is the same company, with the same phone number, the same email and the same Woodlands address. Best for: expensive or sentimental garments you want photographed and tracked, and anyone sending 8kg or more.
20% off a first order (per its homepage), $10 free credit for newsletter signups, and $15 each for you and a friend on referral (friend's first order, min spend $25)
Fifteen years old, 15,000-plus customers, and the only operator here that says plainly it does not outsource: your laundry is washed at Tumble's own facility, in its own machine, separately from everyone else's, in cold water, with the socks paired. Pricing splits hard between casual and committed. Pay-as-you-go is $7.00/kg with a 5-working-day turnaround, limited to garments and towels (household items like carpets, bedsheets and blankets get separated out and charged by the piece), and since a pricing change on 11 May 2026 the pickup-and-delivery minimum order is $50, which means a small load simply cannot be booked. Subscribers get a different service: the Standard plan is priced from $45 a bag or about $5.75/kg (a saving Tumble puts at over 10%), the X-Large plan from $62.50 a bag or about $5.00/kg (over 20%), both with a 2-day turnaround and free collection and delivery. Bags hold up to 15kg, and if it fits in the bag they'll clean it, but overfilling is charged as excess, so pack to the seam and not past it. Curtain takedown starts at $100. The part most comparisons miss is that Tumble also runs two 24/7 self-service laundromats, which makes it the only brand here where you can price the do-it-yourself option against the doorstep one: at Blk 150 Towner Road #01-03 and 139 Simei Street 1 #01-16, a 16kg washer is from $9 and a 24kg washer from $12, with dryers from $1. Towner adds dry cleaning on weekdays and on-site pet laundry; Simei prices a pet wash from $7 and a pet dry from $6. Collection runs Monday to Saturday; the office at 53 Ubi Avenue 1 #03-43 answers 8.30am to 5.30pm on weekdays and 8.30am to 12.30pm on Saturdays. Tumble also flags that turnaround stretches in peak season, giving Christmas and Chinese New Year as its examples. Best for: households that send laundry every single week and will actually use a plan; a poor fit for the occasional load, where the $50 floor and 5-day wait both bite.
Subscription plans save over 10% (Standard) and over 20% (X-Large) versus pay-as-you-go, with free collection & delivery and a 2-day turnaround
The shopfront option on this list, and the one to use when you want to hand a garment to a person rather than a driver. Founded in 1992, it prices by the piece across three published tiers: garment care from $7.30, home and bedding from $15.30, and alterations from $15.30. The garment list is long and specific: T-shirt from $8.30, shirt or blouse $9.30, silk or linen blouse $15.80, cardigan $12.30, suit jacket $13.80, fashion jacket $21.80, trousers $10.30, short skirt $10.80, long skirt $17.30, short dress $21.80, long dress $31.80, saree $41.80, evening dress $78.30, leather jacket $98.80 and a wedding gown at $178.30. Home and bedding covers curtains at $15.30/kg without dismantling and $16.80/kg with, carpets and rugs from $4.30 per square foot, Roman blinds from $3.80 psf, a single bedsheet at $11.80 and queen or king at $16.30, a queen or king blanket, comforter or duvet at $37.80, and towels at $5.80. Alterations are the part nobody else here offers: fixing a button is $6.30, mending $15.30, and changing a zipper, changing an elastic band or shortening are $25.30 each. The two outlet caveats we flagged in August have both cleared. Suntec City finished the renovation it started on 1 August and is trading normally again, and VivoCity is now open at 1 HarbourFront Walk #B2-22B rather than sitting on a Coming Soon banner, which takes Presto to 13 counters, open 7 days a week and, it says, 363 days a year. Four of them now carry an on-site tailor rather than the one we listed before: Leisure Park Kallang, Parkway Parade, Great World and Suntec City. Its own pickup service runs to a 5 to 6 working-day turnaround with a weekly regular option, free above a $50 minimum spend, taking Visa, Mastercard, Amex, PayNow or cash. Best for: dry cleaning by the piece, curtains where you want the takedown priced separately and honestly, and anything needing alteration rather than washing.
Presto Eco Bag $5.90 at any outlet, free pickup and delivery above a $50 spend, and the VivoCity counter is now open (13 outlets as at 14 Sep 2026)
The most heartland-oriented operator here, with 13 outlets sitting in HDB blocks and wet markets rather than malls: Buangkok, Hougang/Kovan (a drop-off point), Ang Mo Kio, Tampines, Bedok, Tiong Bahru, Balestier/Whampoa Market, Holland, West Coast Market, Toh Tuck, Bukit Batok, Jurong East and Yishun/Chong Pang, plus a Lakeside branch. It has run since 2012, is bizSAFE Level 3 certified, and its whole site is published in English and Chinese, which is genuinely useful if you're arranging cleaning for an older relative. Prices are per piece and among the friendliest on this list: T-shirt $6, shirt $7, trousers, slacks or jeans $7, dress or long skirt $11, jacket $11, suit top or blazer $11, a two-piece suit $18, three-piece $20, a medium winter coat $24 to $30, a leather or suede jacket $55, sneakers $25, and curtains at $9/kg without removal and installation, or $5/kg more with, on jobs of $200 and up. Delivery is free island-wide and it claims 100% on-time, with a 3 to 5 day turnaround. The reason it sits sixth rather than higher is the gate, and it is harsher than a refusal: Eazihome's minimum is $70, the highest floor in this comparison, and its own FAQ says an order below that is charged the minimum anyway. Its worked example is a $12 order billed at $70, which is $30 more than Laundryheap's $40 minimum for a fraction of the laundry. Members get it lowered to $50, the membership working as a one-time top-up per tier that earns bonus credits which never expire, plus priority turnaround in peak season and a tote bag as a welcome gift, though the tier amounts aren't published on the page. One small saving worth taking: choosing the eco-friendly doorstep collection instead of a fixed slot takes $2 off. Best for: bulk dry cleaning trips, families clearing out a season's worth of winter wear at once, and anyone who'd rather walk to a neighbourhood counter than wait for a driver.
Free island-wide delivery, $2 off eco-friendly doorstep collection, and membership drops the pickup minimum from $70 to $50 with top-up credits that never expire
Twenty-plus years of specialist experience behind it, and on paper the flattest, simplest price list in this guide: load wash from $6.00/kg, dry cleaning from $6.00 a piece, wash-and-iron from $6.00, iron-only from $4.00, bed sheets from $6.00 a piece, curtain cleaning from $10.00/kg and soft toys from $12.00 per square foot. Its own booking system is not identical: there, load washing is $5.00/kg with an 8kg minimum, so the smallest load it takes is $40 before GST, and some garments price above the website list (a jacket or hoodie $14, a dress $12). The garment list holds that shape: a shirt or blouse is $6 to launder or dry clean and $4 to press, a long blouse $7, a thick sweater or cardigan $8 ($10 if it falls below the waist), a business jacket $10 ($6 to press only), a vest $8, trousers, bermudas or jeans $6, a kebaya top $10, a winter coat $20 ($25 below the waist), an overcoat $30 and a leather jacket $50 hand-washed. Curtains are the one place it is more transparent than the comparison usually gives it credit for: day, organza and linen curtains are $10 a panel and $13 with dismantling and installation, so the takedown is a flat $3, while night and skirting curtains are $10/kg ($13/kg with takedown). Its booking system sets a $100 minimum on any curtain job that includes dismantling. Delivery is free above $40 and standard turnaround is 4 to 5 working days. Two caveats decide whether it's actually the bargain it looks. First, its own price list states that all prices are exclusive of GST, so the $6 shirt is really $6.54 and even the booking system's $5.00/kg load wash is $5.45, which quietly moves it behind Piing! per kilo and behind Laundryheap on shirts. Second, speed is expensive here rather than merely surcharged: a 1 to 2 day turnaround costs 100% more and a 3 to 4 day turnaround 50% more, so a rush job is double price. Best for: a big per-piece dry-cleaning batch where you're comparing on unit price and can wait the full week.
Free pickup and delivery on orders above $40, but note every listed price is quoted before 9% GST, and its booking system starts load washes at 8kg
| Service | Wash & fold from | Minimum before they collect | Real cost of one 6kg load | Turnaround |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laundryheap | $34.90 / 6kg (~$5.82/kg) | $40 minimum charge on every order | $40, the $34.90 bag topped up to the minimum | 24-48 hrs |
| Piing! | $5.00 / kg (min 5kg) | $40 for free delivery, else $9.99 | $39.99 ($30 + $9.99) | 2 days, or next-day Express at $7/kg |
| The Care | $30 / 5kg bag; $73.50 / 15kg bag ($4.90/kg) | Free delivery above $60 | $54 (6kg needs the 10kg bag) | Weekly collection on plans |
| Tumble | $7.00/kg pay-as-you-go; from $5.00/kg on the X-Large plan | $50 per order (raised 11 May 2026) | $50, the floor rather than 6kg x $7 | 5 working days; 2 days on a plan |
| The Laundry Store | $6.00 / kg on its site; $5.00 / kg (min 8kg) in its booking system, before 9% GST | $40 for free delivery | $43.60 incl. GST, billed as the 8kg minimum load | 4-5 working days |
| Eazihome | Priced per piece, not per kg | $70, or $50 for members | $70, the minimum is billed anyway | 3-5 days |
| Presto Drycleaners | Priced per piece from $7.30 | None at the counter; $50 spend for free pickup | n/a, priced per piece | 5-6 working days on pickup |
Singapore has more laundry pickup services than it has laundromats worth walking to, and every one of them leads with a per-kilogram number. Those numbers are close enough to look interchangeable ($5, $6, $7) and far enough apart in practice that the cheapest-looking service can be the most expensive one for the load you actually have in the basket.
The reason is that none of these companies sells laundry by the kilo alone. Each one sets a gate somewhere: a minimum order value, a minimum weight, a fixed bag size, a delivery fee below a threshold, or a price list quoted before GST. Move the size of your load and the gate you hit changes, and so does the ranking.
We priced the same job, one ordinary 6kg household load of everyday clothes collected and returned, across seven services, using each company's own published rates and its own ordering system rather than any aggregator, and re-checked every figure on 14 September 2026. Here is what that load actually costs:
So on a normal load the per-kilo rates barely matter: the three cheapest land within $3.61 of each other because each one's floor sits at about $40, and the lowest advertised rate wins by a single cent.
Flip the question, assume you can fill a big bag, and the answer moves again, to a service that doesn't market itself on price at all. The Care sells a 15kg Extra Large wash-and-fold bag for $73.50. That is $4.90 a kilo, the lowest one-off published rate we found anywhere in this comparison. It undercuts Tumble's best subscription tier ($5.00/kg on the X-Large plan) and needs no subscription to access, so you can order a single bag.
Go one step further into subscriptions and the floor drops twice. The Care's MAX plan is $170 a month for four 10kg bags, which is 40kg with collection and delivery for $4.25 a kilo. Below that sits a plan the company does not advertise anywhere except in its own subscription table: Extra Large Wash & Fold, $220 a month for four 15kg bags, or 60kg for $3.67 a kilo. That is the floor of this market as at September 2026.
The practical rule that falls out of all this: below about 8kg, you pay a floor of roughly $40 wherever you book, so ignore per-kilo rates entirely. Above 10kg a week, every dollar is in the bag size or the plan.
GST. The Laundry Store states on its own price list that all prices are exclusive of GST. Its $6 shirt is therefore $6.54, and even the $5.00/kg load wash in its booking system is $5.45. Everyone else on this list publishes what you pay. It's a small gap on one shirt and a real one on a $180 wedding gown, where 9% is $16.20.
Speed surcharges. Laundryheap's 24 to 48 hours is standard, not express, and you don't pay extra for it. Piing! offers next-day Express, priced at $7.00/kg against $5.00/kg on Regular. At the other end, The Laundry Store charges 100% more for a 1 to 2 day turnaround and 50% more for 3 to 4 days, so a rush job there is literally double. Tumble's pay-as-you-go is 5 working days and its subscription is 2, the widest single gap between a company's own two tiers on this list.
Who actually washes it. Laundryheap says openly that orders are cleaned by vetted local partner facilities rather than its own plant, which is how it covers the island in 24 hours. Tumble says the opposite just as plainly: it doesn't outsource, and each customer's load goes through its own machine separately. Neither is wrong, but if you care about your clothes not sharing a drum with a stranger's, only one of those sentences is the one you want.
Curtain cleaning is priced by weight nearly everywhere, and the takedown is nearly always separate, which is where quotes that look similar stop being similar.
| Service | Curtain rate | Takedown |
|---|---|---|
| Eazihome | $9 / kg | Plus $5 / kg, minimum $200 |
| Laundryheap | $9 per day-curtain panel; $9 / kg blackout | 7-day service |
| The Laundry Store | Day $10 per panel; night $10 / kg | Plus $3 per day-curtain panel ($3/kg night), $100 minimum |
| The Care | Day $11 launder / $14 dry clean per panel; night $11 / $14 per kg | In-home steam cleaning available |
| Presto | $15.30 / kg | $16.80 / kg with dismantling |
Two of them price the labour openly. Presto's $1.50/kg gap between its two lines *is* the takedown and rehang, and The Laundry Store's day curtain goes from $10 to $13 a panel once dismantling and installation are included, though its booking system will not take a dismantling job under $100. Eazihome will do it as well, at $5/kg on top of the $9/kg cleaning, but only on jobs of $200 or more. Weigh one dry panel before you call, because heavy blackout curtains from a single bay window run 6 to 8kg, so the difference between $9/kg and $16.80/kg on a three-window flat is not a rounding error.
You send one load a week and want it back fast. Laundryheap. $34.90 for 6kg (billed at its $40 minimum), 24 to 48 hours, free collection and delivery, and the simplest bulky-item pricing here ($10 for a bedsheet in any size, $16 for a duvet cover in any size).
You have a big household and a real weekly pile. The Care's 15kg bag at $73.50 ($4.90/kg) if you want to stay flexible, its MAX plan at $170 a month for 40kg ($4.25/kg) if you don't, or its Extra Large plan at $220 a month for 60kg ($3.67/kg) if the pile is genuinely that size. It's currently running 10% off for three months on subscriptions.
You send expensive or sentimental clothes. Piing!, for the photo inventory at collection and the QR code on every garment, so you can see where a specific item is in the process. Send 8kg or more so the $40 threshold isn't working against you, and use the 20% first-order discount on the first one.
You want your clothes washed alone, not batched. Tumble, on a subscription. Its whole proposition is an in-house plant and a dedicated machine per customer. Just don't sign up expecting to send the occasional small bag: the $50 minimum makes that impossible.
You'd rather do it yourself and keep the money. Tumble again, but at its counters instead. Its two 24/7 laundromats charge from $9 for a 16kg wash and from $1 for a dryer, so a large self-service load costs roughly a quarter of the cheapest doorstep option here.
You need a suit, a gown, curtains or a zip replaced. Presto. Per-piece pricing across 13 open counters, the only alterations service on this list, and the clearest curtain quote in Singapore.
You're clearing a season of winter wear or dry cleaning in bulk. Eazihome. $6 T-shirts, $7 shirts, $18 two-piece suits and $55 leather jackets, with 13 neighbourhood outlets. The $70 minimum stops being a problem the moment the job is big, and it is a genuine problem when the job is small, because that figure is billed either way.
You're comparing purely on unit price and can wait a week. The Laundry Store, with the caveats you now know: add 9% to everything on the page before you compare it to anyone else, and expect load washes to start at 8kg.
Neither made the ranking, but both are operating and both publish something concrete.
If you've been shortlisting both, stop: they're one company. KnocKnocK's own site publishes the phone number +65 3105 3105, the email piingus@piing.com.sg, the entity name KnocKnocK Piing (Pte.) Ltd and an address at 2 Woodlands Sector 1, Woodlands Spectrum, all identical to Piing!'s. The two brands differ in menu (KnocKnocK adds aircon cleaning, pest control, handyman and home cleaning) but not in the plant your clothes go to. A second quote should come from a second company.
For everyday wash-and-fold, expect roughly $5 to $7 a kilo before any delivery fee, but the fee structure matters more than the rate at normal basket sizes. As at 14 September 2026: Piing! charges $5.00/kg with a 5kg minimum on Regular and $7.00/kg on next-day Express; Tumble charges $7.00/kg pay-as-you-go or from $5.00/kg on its X-Large subscription; The Laundry Store lists $6.00/kg on its site and $5.00/kg with an 8kg minimum in its booking system, both before 9% GST; The Care sells fixed bags at $30 for 5kg, $54 for 10kg and $73.50 for 15kg (that last one is $4.90/kg, the cheapest one-off rate on this list, and its $220 Extra Large plan takes that to $3.67/kg); and Laundryheap prices by the bag from $34.90 for 6kg mixed. Dry cleaning is priced per garment instead: a plain shirt runs $7 at Eazihome and The Care, $7.50 at Piing! and $9.30 at Presto. The number that actually decides your bill on a small order is the minimum: Laundryheap charges $40 on any smaller order, Piing! and The Laundry Store waive delivery at $40, Presto asks $50 for free pickup, The Care $60, Tumble refuses orders under $50 outright, and Eazihome charges its $70 minimum whatever your order comes to, falling to $50 for members.
Piing!, by a single cent, and the per-kilo rates barely decide it because nearly every service puts a floor near $40. A 6kg load at Piing!'s $5.00/kg is $30 of washing, but that sits below its $40 free-delivery bar, so a $9.99 delivery charge lands on top: $39.99. Laundryheap prices 6kg mixed wash-and-fold at a flat $34.90 with collection and delivery included, but its Singapore terms charge any order under $40 at $40, so the real bill is $40. The Laundry Store's booking system takes load washes from 8kg at $5.00/kg, so a 6kg basket is billed as $40 before GST, about $43.60 once 9% is added. Tumble's pay-as-you-go rate of $7.00/kg would make 6kg $42, except that no Tumble order under $50 can be placed at all since its 11 May 2026 pricing change. The Care's smallest fixed bag holds 5kg for $30, so 6kg pushes you into the 10kg Large bag at $54. And Eazihome bills its $70 minimum whether or not your order reaches it, which its own FAQ illustrates with a $12 order charged at $70. If you only ever send one load at a time, the ranking is Piing!, then Laundryheap, then The Laundry Store; new Piing! customers also get 20% off a first order.
Much cheaper per load, if you will do the work and the travelling. Tumble is the one operator on this list that runs both, so its own published rates make the comparison clean. At its two 24/7 laundromats, Blk 150 Towner Road #01-03 and 139 Simei Street 1 #01-16, a 16kg washer starts at $9 and a 24kg washer at $12, with dryers from $1 a cycle. So a big 16kg self-service wash and dry starts around $10, against the $40 minimum on a pickup order at Laundryheap, or $50 before Tumble's own pickup arm will accept an order at all. That is roughly a quarter of the cost for nearly three times the weight. What you give up is the collection, the folding, the sock-pairing and about two hours of your evening. The rule of thumb: a laundromat wins on price by a wide margin at every basket size, and a pickup service is buying back time rather than laundry. Two extras worth knowing at Tumble's counters: the Towner branch offers on-site pet laundry alongside dry cleaning on weekdays, and Simei prices a pet wash from $7 and a pet dry from $6.
Yes, and it's worth knowing before you compare quotes between the two. KnocKnocK's own website lists its phone number as +65 3105 3105, its email as piingus@piing.com.sg, its registered entity as KnocKnocK Piing (Pte.) Ltd and its address at 2 Woodlands Sector 1, Woodlands Spectrum, every one of which is identical to Piing!'s published contact details. They are two consumer brands run by one operator out of one Woodlands facility, so putting them side by side isn't a real comparison; you're pricing the same plant twice. The brands aren't identical in scope, though: KnocKnocK sells a wider home-services menu including aircon cleaning, pest control, handyman and deep cleaning alongside the laundry, while Piing! is the laundry-and-dry-cleaning app with the QR-code garment tracking. If you want a genuine second quote, get it from a different company.
Between one day and six working days, and the spread is much wider than most people expect. Laundryheap is the fastest as standard, quoting 24 to 48 hours on ordinary laundry and dry cleaning. Piing! returns wash-and-fold in 2 days on its Regular service and next day on Express, which costs $7.00/kg against $5.00/kg. Tumble is the sharpest split on this list: 2 days if you're on a subscription plan, but 5 working days on pay-as-you-go, which it warns can stretch further at Christmas and Chinese New Year. Eazihome quotes 3 to 5 days, The Laundry Store 4 to 5 working days, and Presto 5 to 6 working days on its pickup service. Two things stretch those numbers: curtains, which Laundryheap runs as a 7-day service, with duvets and bulky items on 3 days; and paying for speed, which at The Laundry Store means a 100% surcharge for a 1 to 2 day turnaround or 50% for 3 to 4 days, effectively double price for a rush job.
It's priced by weight almost everywhere, and taking the curtains down is nearly always a separate charge, which is the part people get caught by. Presto publishes the clearest split: $15.30 per kg without dismantling and $16.80 per kg with, so the takedown-and-rehang labour is $1.50 a kilo. Eazihome charges $9/kg without removal and installation, and $5/kg on top if you want it done, on jobs of $200 or more. Laundryheap charges $9 per piece for day curtains and $9 per kg for night and blackout curtains, and runs it as a 7-day service rather than its usual 24 to 48 hours. The Laundry Store prices day curtains at $10 a panel, rising to $13 with dismantling and installation, and night or skirting curtains at $10/kg ($13/kg with takedown); its booking system sets a $100 minimum on any curtain job that includes dismantling. The Care prices day curtains per piece, $11 to launder and $14 to dry clean, rising to $15 and $18 with embroidery, and night curtains per kilo at the same $11 and $14, and it also sends a team to steam-clean curtains in place if you'd rather not take them down at all. Tumble's takedown service starts at $100. Weigh a dry panel at home before you call: heavy blackout curtains from one bay window can easily run 6 to 8kg.
Not always, and one service on this list is explicitly quoted without it. The Laundry Store states on its own price list that all prices are exclusive of GST, so its $6 shirt is really $6.54 and even the $5.00/kg load wash in its booking system is $5.45, enough to move it behind Piing! on a per-kilo basis once you compare like with like. New Sparklean, another pickup service, also frames its first-order discount as 10% off orders over $40 before GST. The others on this list publish rates that read as the amount charged. The safe habit is the same one that applies to any Singapore service quote: ask whether the figure is nett before you compare two numbers that look a dollar apart, because 9% on a $70 curtain job is $6.30 and on a $180 wedding gown it's $16.20.
All thirteen on its own outlet directory, re-checked on 14 September 2026. Both of the August exceptions have cleared: Suntec City (3 Temasek Boulevard #B1-160) has finished the renovation it began on 1 August and is listed with normal hours again, and VivoCity (1 HarbourFront Walk #B2-22B, 6269 9892) has opened rather than sitting on a Coming Soon banner. The full list: Bedok Mall (311 Upper Changi Road #B2-49), Leisure Park Kallang (5 Stadium Walk #B1-11), Parkway Parade (80 Marine Parade Road #03-13), Bukit Timah Plaza (1 Jalan Anak Bukit #B1-31, 9am to 8pm), Holland Village (1 Lorong Mambong #01-03, 8.30am to 7pm), Westgate (3 Gateway Drive #B2-K20), Great World (1 Kim Seng Promenade B1-127), Suntec City (9am to 8pm), Paragon (290 Orchard Road #B1-19B), Takashimaya (391A Orchard Road #04-00), ION Orchard (2 Orchard Turn #04-17A), VivoCity and Bishan Junction 8 (9 Bishan Place #B1-06A). Most run 10am to 9pm daily, every branch closes for lunch from 3pm to 4pm, and Presto says the counters open 363 days a year. Four now carry an on-site tailor rather than one: Leisure Park Kallang, Parkway Parade, Great World and Suntec City.
