Laundromat Clyde North – Orana

We love our furry friends, but Blue Hippo stores don’t offer pet blanket washing facilities. To keep our laundromats fresh, clean and comfortable for everyone — especially customers with allergies and sensitivities—we ask that pet items aren’t washed in our standard machines.

An exception to this is our Norlane store, which has a dedicated pet blanket washer that has been part of the store offering for many years. While it’s still available there, pet washing facilities aren’t included in new Blue Hippo locations.

Thanks for helping us keep tails wagging and customers smiling! 🐾

Yes. Our large-capacity machines are ideal for doonas, comforters, sleeping bags and blankets that won’t fit in a home washer. We recommend the biggest washer available for the best clean and rinse.

Our laundromats are fitted with a range of machine sizes — from standard front-loaders right up to large-capacity washers that can handle doonas, blankets and bulky bedding. Look for the capacity label on the front of each machine, or ask our team if you need a hand choosing.

Absolutely. Each machine has simple on-screen or panel instructions — just load your laundry, add detergent, select your cycle and pay. If it’s your first visit, our signage walks you through every step.

You’re welcome to wait in-store — our laundromats are clean, bright and comfortable — or pop out and run an errand and come back. We do recommend returning promptly once your cycle finishes so others can use the machines.
