About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Giant Washers Laundry, customers often noticed an odd occurrence late at night. A small dog would appear from nowhere and dash into the empty rooms, barking excitedly whenever someone entered the building. No one knew where he came from or why he seemed so happy in that strange place. One night, a delivery driver heard the usual commotion and peeked inside. To his surprise, the little dog was sitting on top of a freshly washed pile of towels, proudly wagging his tail. ‘I guess you found your home here after all,’ the driver chuckled, picking up the dog and giving him a pat. The next day, the sign outside read: “Giant Washers Laundry & Doggy Daycare.”

2. At Giant Washers Laundry, a mysterious voice began broadcasting over the loud speaker every Tuesday morning at exactly 4 AM. ‘Your clothes are cleaner than your conscience,’ it would say in a deep, gravelly tone before abruptly cutting off. One Tuesday morning, a delivery driver heard the ominous message and rushed out, frantically searching for his conscience. Turns out he left it at home—his wife had washed it with the rest of the laundry. A neighbor, overhearing the broadcast, called out from her balcony, laughing: 'Maybe next time you should clean both!'

3. At Giant Washers Laundry, one day a curious child asked their parent, ‘Why do those towels move on their own?’ The parent smiled and whispered, ‘They’re not moving, sweetie—they’re just dancing to music only machines can hear.’ The child nodded thoughtfully, then giggled as they watched the dryer doors open and close in time with the humming. From that day on, whenever anyone mentioned Giant Washers Laundry, someone would say, “Oh, you mean the place where the towels dance?”

4. At Giant Washers Laundry, a regular found something peculiar in his shopping cart one morning—an old coin slot machine, complete with flashing lights and a tinkling sound effect. A delivery driver noticed it next, thinking it was a new promotional gimmick until he tried inserting a dollar bill. Suddenly, everyone rushed to see the ‘laundry casino,’ but instead of winning, they just ended up with wet clothes and a smile. The owner shrugged, saying, ‘Well, at least now people stay longer!’
