Moving house comes with a long list of things to organise. Between packing boxes, changing addresses and moving furniture, laundry can quickly become another job you do not have time for.
Having fresh clothes, bedding and towels ready to go means one less thing to think about when you arrive in your new home.
Here is a simple moving house laundry checklist to help you get organised, with a little help from Speed-e Laundromat.
Get Your Laundry Sorted Before Moving Day
Instead of taking baskets of washing with you, try to get your everyday laundry sorted before the move.
A few essentials worth washing and keeping easy to find include:
- Everyday clothes for the first few days
- Workwear and school uniforms
- Sheets and pillowcases
- Towels and tea towels
- Mattress and pillow protectors
- Doonas and blankets
Pack clean bedding and towels in a clearly labelled box so you can find them easily when you arrive. After a long moving day, having fresh sheets and towels ready is one less thing to worry about.
Get More Washing Done Before the Move
When you are packing an entire house, waiting for one home washing machine to finish cycle after cycle is probably not how you want to spend your day.
Come to Speed-e laundromat and get it sorted faster! You can use multiple washers and dryers at the same time, helping you get through clothes, towels and bedding in one visit.
Choose a machine that suits the amount of washing you have:
- Double Washers hold up to 10kg, around two full laundry baskets
- Maxi Washers hold up to 18kg, around four full baskets
- Extra Large Washers hold up to 25kg, around six full baskets, available at Kearneys Spring, Newtown and Brassall
Our extra-large commercial washing machines are particularly useful for bulky items such as doonas and blankets. Most wash cycles take around 30 minutes helping you get more sorted in less time. You can save even more time by using several machines at once for different colours or fabrics. Yes, it’s more washing sorted in one go!
No Detergent to Pack or Remember
When half your house is already packed into boxes, the last thing you need is another item to remember.
Free commercial grade laundry detergent and hypoallergenic fabric softener are automatically included in every wash at Speed-e. Simply bring your washing, choose your machine and cycle, then get started.
Speed-e is also card only with simple tap n’ pay, so there is no need to worry about having coins.
Fresh Bedding for Your First Night
Your bed is probably going to look very inviting after a full day of carrying boxes. There is nothing quite like that home sweet home feeling when you can finally settle in.
Washing your sheets, pillowcases and doona before moving means everything is fresh and ready when you arrive. Just remember to check the care label before washing or drying bulky or delicate items.
Speed-e’s commercial machines give larger bedding plenty of room, while our powerful dryers help get everything properly dry before packing it away.
Moving Day Did Not Go to Plan?
Moving rarely runs exactly to schedule. Maybe your washing machine is already disconnected, or you simply did not get to the washing before moving day.
Speed-e offers convenient 24 hr laundry, open 7 days a week, including public holidays. Visit whenever you find a spare moment.
If washing starts piling up while you unpack, Speed-e also makes it easy to catch up before your home laundry is set up. Our laundromats are cleaned and sanitised daily, with 24/7 security surveillance for added peace of mind.

With multiple machine sizes, free commercial grade detergent and hypoallergenic fabric softener, card only tap n’ pay and 24/7 access, Speed-e helps you get the washing sorted quickly and get back to settling into your new home.
