Y&Y, the North London-based residential property managers, has teamed up with announcing a partnership with LaundryRepublic to offer laundry collection services from within their properties. LaundryRepublic is the 24-hour locker-based laundry and drycleaning service founded in 2008 by two ex-city workers.

The LaundryRepublic concept is simple: secure lockers, placed in apartment buildings and workplaces. Customers lock their clothes in them and place an order by text message or online.

Laundry Republic took the title for Best Logistics Drycleaner at the LCN Awards in 2018, having previously won both the Best Online Service for Drycleaning and the Best Online Service for Laundry at the LCN Awards in 2017.

Joseph Gurvits, CEO of Y&Y Management said, “Convenience and quality of service are essential to our residents. They have chosen our blocks because of the quality of the properties and the additional services available. Modern technology is rapidly offering solutions to ease the time pressures of modern life and this partnership with LaundryRepublic is a perfect example of this innovation. To successfully manage high end properties, we focus not just on the quality of the building but also additional services for tenants.”

Ian Walker, co-founder at LaundryRepublic said: “The purpose of our business is to deliver a convenient dry-cleaning service to our customers, the pivotal factor is the ability for users to use a reliable and good quality dry cleaning and laundry service from the convenience of their own buildings. Partnerships like these enable us to deliver our service to more customers with greater accessibility, we’re sure our customers will be very happy. Our eco-friendly garment cleaning technology, charity partnership with Scope, sustainable packaging and recycling schemes offer a valuable joint CSR effort.”
