Suds Buds540 E 14th St, across from Stuy Town

Come in.

A laundromat, a counter, a tailor, a trike, and now Signature, at 540 E 14th St across from Stuy Town, or at your door. Scroll and the doors open.

Free pickup and delivery, downtown Manhattan. If we come to you, the door's already open.

The counter

The whole price, discounts included, on one receipt.

Drag the pounds, pick Classic or Signature, flip same day. That's the number; there isn't another one. Your first order is 20% off. Set up recurring pickups and every order after it is 10% off. Both are printed on the receipt, not hidden in a code.

Dry cleaning and tailoring are priced by the piece; the rack is two rooms down.

Your bag rides the trike.

Schedule in sixty seconds, no account needed. The yellow trike comes to your door, the bag goes to 14th Street, gets washed, folded by hand, and comes back with a photo of it at your door. Next day, or same day if it's in by noon. Doorman building? Leave the bag; we take it from there.

The rack

Dry cleaning and a tailor who actually fixes things.

Shirts, suits, dresses, coats. Alterations, hemming, repairs. Priced by the piece, listed on their pages. The rack turns as you scroll; the real one turns at the counter.

Our other website

Probiotic laundry, explained by a sock.

probioticlaundry.com is where the living formula gets explained: what it does in the wash (wakes up, slaps the stink, stays), a page for the skeptics, Tufo TV, and La Sockadora doing the talking. In English and Spanish.

In New York, it's called Signature.
