Holiday Laundry Hacks: From BBQ Stains to Beach Towels

Christmas feasts, backyard BBQs and sunny beach days are what Aussie summers are all about. The holidays bring joy, celebration and a little extra washing too. Gravy spills on the good tablecloth and sandy towels after a family trip to the coast are all part of the season. Laundry should not get in the way of your festive fun. Speed-e Laundromat is here to help make cleaning it all quick, easy and completely hassle-free. 

Here’s how to stay on top of your holiday laundry with a little help from Speed-e Laundromat. 

Sticky Situations: How to Handle the Most Common Holiday Stains 

The festive season can be messy. Quick action and the right settings will save your fabrics. 

BBQ sauce on clothes? 
Scrape off any excess, blot gently and rinse with cold water before washing. 

Red wine on a linen tablecloth? 
Sprinkle salt or bicarb to absorb the stain, then rinse with cold water. 

Sunscreen and sand in beach towels? 
Shake them out thoroughly, then run a pre-rinse before washing. 

Creamy desserts on napkins or runners? 
Use cold water first and let Speed-e’s built-in detergent do the rest. 

Our self-service laundromats in Queensland make it easy to treat and clean your holiday mess without fuss. We even automatically inject hospital grade laundry detergent and fabric softener in every wash. Find your nearest Speed-e Laundromat to get it all sorted with ease. 

Family-Sized Celebrations Mean Family-Sized Laundry 

When guests come to stay or the kids are home from school, the washing piles up quickly. Speed-e’s commercial-grade washers can handle it all in fewer loads. 

  • Our Double Washers hold up to 10kg and are great for everyday clothes and towels. 
  • Maxi Washers hold 18kg and are ideal for larger loads like table linen and guest bedding. 
  • For the biggest jobs, Extra-Large Washers hold 25kg and are perfect for doonas, picnic rugs and beach towels. 

Every machine includes hospital-grade detergent and softener, so you do not need to bring anything extra. If it is your first time visiting, our First Timer’s Guide will walk you through every step. 

We Are Open When Others Are Closed Even on Christmas Day

Public holidays should not delay your laundry. Speed-e Laundromats are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Turn Laundry into a Quick Family Outing  

Turn a boring chore into something peaceful and productive! While the machines run, you can let the kids help sort and fold, catch up on emails or scroll through socials, or simply relax with a book in a clean and quiet space.

Every location is cleaned daily and includes 24-hour security for your safety. 

Our powerful commercial dryers can handle bulky items like towels and doonas, drying them in around 30 minutes. That means no waiting for the Queensland weather to cooperate.
