DCG LAUNDRY GUIDE
Laundry prices in Nairobi are easier to compare once you know what is being measured. A low per-kilogram figure may cover only basic washing, while another quote includes drying, folding, ironing or collection. This guide explains the main pricing methods and the details that change the final total.

Use the sections below as a working checklist. Fabric labels and garment condition always take priority over general advice.
Everyday laundry is commonly weighed because one mixed bag can contain many low-value items. Ask whether the rate covers washing, drying and folding, and whether there is a minimum order. Keep dry-clean-only garments outside the bag because they are not part of the same process or price.
A shirt, suit jacket, dress and long coat do not require the same work. Construction, lining, fabric and stain treatment all affect handling. Compare the price for the exact garment, not a general dry-cleaning headline. Mention embellishments, delicate trims or heavy staining before accepting the quote.
Some providers list a rate for each shirt, trouser or dress. Others quote a batch after seeing the load. Ask whether items are returned folded or on hangers and whether collection is included. If you washed the clothes at home, make sure they are clean and fully dry.
A single synthetic duvet and a large feather-filled comforter cannot be treated as the same job. Size, filling, care label and drying time matter. Confirm whether the quote includes washing, full drying and packing. Ask how active promotions apply to different duvet sizes.
Pickup may be included, charged separately or limited to certain areas and minimum orders. Do not assume the word delivery means both journeys are free. Give the exact address and ask for the collection terms in writing before comparing the full cost.
A bag plan can cost less than separate weekly orders when your household consistently fills the allowance. Check the weight limit, eligible items, collection frequency and unused capacity rules. A cheaper plan is not better if specialist garments are excluded or you rarely fill the bag.
Airbnbs, salons and restaurants should compare quotes using one representative order. List sheets, towels, covers and other items, then state the usual weekly volume. Include finishing, packaging and turnaround requirements. That gives providers the same brief and makes the comparison much more useful.
NEED HELP WITH A LOAD?
Send a photo or item list on WhatsApp. We will point you to the suitable service.
Always read the care label before washing or treating an item. Test unfamiliar products on a hidden area and stop if colour transfers, fabric changes or the label calls for professional cleaning.
When you are unsure, take a clear photo of the item, stain and care label. A professional cleaner can give more useful guidance with that context than with a garment description alone.
Home care is useful for routine laundry, but some jobs need more space, controlled drying or specialist handling. Structured garments, delicate fabrics, old stains, bulky bedding and time-sensitive business linen are good reasons to ask a professional before experimenting.

It depends on the load and service. Compare the full cost for washing, drying, finishing and collection rather than choosing only the lowest headline rate.
