Getting Started & Campus Pickup
How do I sign up for laundry service at Fairfield University?
Sign up online with Get Fresh Start Laundry and select your preferred pickup day. When entering your campus information, be sure to include your residence hall in the apartment/unit field so our team knows where to pick up and return your laundry.
Where do I leave my laundry for pickup?
Laundry is picked up from designated locations inside Fairfield University residence halls. Leave your properly labeled laundry at your building's designated location before your scheduled pickup.
Do I need to meet the driver?
No. You don't need to wait around for your driver. Because Get Fresh Start Laundry is Fairfield University's official campus laundry service, our team has access to the designated residence hall pickup areas. Simply leave your laundry at the correct location before pickup and go about your day.

No problem. For your first pickup, you can use your own laundry bag, hamper, or securely closed bag. Clearly label it with your name, residence hall, and “Get Fresh Start Laundry.” We'll return your first order with your Fresh Start laundry kit to use for future pickups.

Laundry Care & What You Can Send
What detergent options are available?
We offer scented, unscented, and Free & Clear hypoallergenic detergent options. You can select your laundry preferences when setting up your account.
Is my laundry washed separately from other customers?
Yes. Residential wash & fold orders are processed separately, so your clothing is not combined into a communal wash with other customers' laundry.
We also sort your laundry as part of our professional cleaning process and use our ozone sanitation system for an additional level of freshness and sanitation.
Do you treat stains?
Yes. Our team keeps an eye out for everyday stains during processing and pre-treats them when appropriate. If you know an item has a significant or unusual stain, we recommend letting us know so our team can give it the appropriate attention.
Can I send sheets, towels, and bedding?
Yes. Everyday machine-washable items such as sheets, pillowcases, towels, blankets, and other dorm linens can be sent with your laundry.
Can you clean my comforter?
Yes. We professionally clean washable comforters and other bulky bedding. Comforters require additional machine space and drying time, so they are priced separately from regular wash & fold laundry.
Do you offer dry cleaning for Fairfield University students?
Yes. Dry cleaning pickup and delivery is available for items such as suits, dresses, dress shirts, formalwear, and other garments requiring professional cleaning.
Dry cleaning should be kept separate from your regular wash & fold laundry and has a longer turnaround time than everyday wash & fold service.
What should I do with delicate or special-care clothing?
Keep garments requiring special care separate from your regular wash & fold laundry. Items labeled Dry Clean Only, Hand Wash Only, Do Not Tumble Dry, or with other special care instructions should be placed in your Dry Cleaning & Special Care bag.
Our regular wash & fold service is designed for everyday machine-washable clothing, while the Special Care process allows our team to give individual garments more detailed attention.
Pricing, Discounts & Your Account
Is there a minimum order?
Yes. Our regular service has a $42 minimum order, which includes pickup and delivery. You don't need to send a certain number of bags—the minimum simply applies to the total order.
Do Fairfield University students receive a discount?
Yes. Fairfield University students receive 15% off with promo code STAGS.
Can a parent set up and pay for the service?
Yes. Parents can set up the account and manage payment for their student’s laundry service. We recommend using the parent’s email address so you can easily receive and review payments, while using the student’s phone number so they receive pickup and delivery text updates and can be contacted if needed.
Just be sure to include the student’s name and correct Fairfield University residence hall information on the account so we know exactly where to pick up and return their laundry.
How will I know when my laundry is being picked up or delivered?
Students can receive text updates about their service, including a reminder the night before and pickup and delivery notifications so they know when to expect our team.
