About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Spincycle laundromat, customers often wondered why one particular delivery driver always seemed to arrive just as their clothes were finishing drying. Was it mere coincidence or something more? One day, a regular asked the owner if they could speed up the dryer for him. The owner smiled and said, ‘No worries, I’ll just ask our friendly delivery guy to come early.’ Turns out, he was pressing pause on the timer every night before heading home.

2. At dawn, when most laundromats are empty, an old man began arriving at Spincycle with a mysterious bundle. He’d fold and unfold it in front of the dryers, muttering something about ‘the perfect spin.’ One day, a delivery driver noticed the old man whispering into his shirt after loading it into the washer. Curious, he peeked inside—only to see rows of tiny spinning tops! The old man smiled, saying, 'They help clothes sleep better.' Since then, everyone brings their socks here for that extra special spin.

3. At Spincycle laundromat, one day a customer noticed something peculiar in the coin return slot—a tiny, perfectly folded American flag. Curious, she picked it up and realized it was brand new, still crisp from the factory. Turns out, an enthusiastic delivery driver had accidentally dropped off a fresh batch of flags meant for the local VFW hall. From then on, every time someone needed their clothes cleaned, they also got a little patriotic surprise—until the owner finally posted a sign: ‘Flags not included with your wash.’

4. At Spincycle laundromat, a regular once exclaimed, ‘Why does that same bike keep appearing outside every time I come here?’ It turned out that the same bike was owned by a friendly delivery driver who lived above the laundromat and used it to run errands around town. Every time he saw someone doing their laundry, he’d leave his trusty steed outside for them to admire—kind of like leaving a little gift for customers.
