Can I use regular laundry bags for Liox services?
Definitely! You will also get one free Liox bag after the first order. However we encourage customers to only use bags with the shoulder strap, we care about our drivers and want them to get your bag safely through those tough stairs.
Note that we will not pick up any bags that can't be sealed completely or broken. We care about your belongings and do not want you to be missing anything due to a broken bag.
If you give us laundry inside a plastic bag, we will need to place it inside a Liox laundry bag and charge you $6 for the bag.

Yes, in most areas you are eligible for the same day delivery, if the order is set for pickup in the morning.
What if I'm not able to be home during the scheduled pick up and drop off windows?
If you have a change in your schedule, contact us immediately with new pickup and drop off times.

Yes. You will get a full refund if you cancel the appointment within an hour of a pickup time. For those who fail to notify us in time, we will keep a $3.50 reservation fee.
Delivery
I have waited for 2 hours and my delivery person is still not here!
Oops! That doesn't sound like us. Please double check that this is indeed the day and time your order was scheduled for by looking up your confirmation email we sent to you.
It's possible our driver is simply trying to park the car downstairs, however if we are running more than 15 mins late, please reach out to us at 855-550-4545 to confirm the status of delivery.
It's been a few days and my dry cleaning order is still not here!
That is a common issue with doorman buildings, sometimes those paper tickets fall off or get placed somewhere in the back of the storage room, but your apartment number is still written on the laundry bag, please tell your doorman to look for white Liox bag attached to a nicely packaged garments on hangers.
What are the latest and earliest you can pickup/deliver?

What is the Liox delivery area?
We deliver anywhere below 125th street Manhattan or Downtown Brooklyn.
What if i want my laundry delivered to my work or to my new address?
No problem, if you moved to a different address and it is within our service area, after we pick it up from you, simply change your account address and we will see the update in our system with the new address.
Washing and Drying
Can you hang dry my delicates?
Yes, hang dry items must be separated by a plastic bag within a Liox bag, so that we know which items should be hang dried. It is subject to an additional charge of $3.50 per piece. So if you order includes 15 pieces for hang dry, you will be charged additional $3.50 x 15
What temperatures do you use for washing and drying?
We handle your clothes as our own, first we determine their fabrics and colors and set such temperature for washing, that it doesn't fade during the washing cycle.
If there are heavy items like towels or sheets, we set drying on hot. If there are only light clothes like shirts, dresses etc. we set drying on medium.
Can i ask you to dry half of my clothes on low and half on hot
Since we don't charge for color separation we can only do it if your order is over 25 lbs. We can't dedicate 2 or more dryers for small orders. However, you may want us to hang dry some of your clothing. Note hand dry is $3.50 per piece.
I want my clothes to be washed with my own detergent, how do i do that?
You should put your detergent (not bleach) into our laundry bag, make sure you seal it tight, and leave additional instructions when making an order. Even when providing your own detergent, you will pay the same amount of money.
Please note that we can’t return detergent bottles back, so make sure you only give us enough for one order.
Can you hand wash my clothing?
When it comes to washing of delicate fabrics, we always recommend dry cleaning, we do not offer hand washing at this time.
Dry Cleaning / Wash & Press
Do you offer wash & press shirts or launder shirts service?
Absolutely, it's $3.79 per shirt to be washed and pressed.
It is part of the dry cleaning order, either list the number of shirts yourself (it's first on the list) or we can count them ourselves.
Will i be charged exactly the same price as listed here?
Prices listed on the order page are for a common description of an item. However we can not list all possible types of garment.
For items that are: extra heavy, long, extra-large or extra-small, bulky items, fancy buttons, special fabric, leather or fur, there may be an extra charge since it requires extra attention or is different from the standard item of that kind.
Like the difference between a suit jacket and outer jacket could be minimal, however treatment and price varies greatly.
In 95% of cases we try to not charge anything extra and keep the cost as low as possible.

Unfortunately we can not provide the same day dry cleaning service at this time.
