These two neighborhoods sit side by side along Roosevelt Avenue and Broadway, and between them they hold some of the most diverse blocks in New York. You can buy saris and sweets on 74th Street, eat Thai and Indonesian food on Whitney Avenue, and catch five subway lines at one station. What’s harder to find is time. Long work weeks, full apartments and crowded laundry rooms make laundry one of the first chores people here are happy to hand off.
Built for How People Live Here
Jackson Heights and Elmhurst have very different housing stock, and both come with their own laundry headaches.
Jackson Heights
The historic district is famous for its early 20th-century garden apartment co-ops, built around private interior gardens and often without laundry inside the units. Shared basement machines are common, and so are waiting lists for them. Beyond the garden blocks, many residents live in prewar walk-ups and apartment buildings on the numbered streets between 70th Street and Junction Boulevard, where hauling a cart to the laundromat is part of the weekly routine.
Elmhurst
Elmhurst is packed with mid-rise apartment buildings, attached houses and newer elevator buildings near Queens Boulevard. Many households are large, with several people working different shifts, which makes finding a free window for laundry tricky. A scheduled pickup removes the guesswork.
Why Neighbors Choose Fold NY
- Washed in our own laundromat. All wash and fold delivery orders are washed and folded at our store at 53-25 Metropolitan Ave in Ridgewood. Nothing is outsourced.
- Picked up by our own drivers. We don’t hand your bag to a stranger from a gig app. Our team handles it from pickup to drop-off.
- Ozone in every wash. Ozone is a natural sanitizer that helps remove bacteria, allergens and stubborn odors, including the cooking smells that can settle into clothes in a busy apartment. It also lets us use fewer harsh chemicals. Your laundry comes back clean, soft and fresh.
- Care options that stay on file. Pick hypoallergenic, fragrance-free detergent, cold wash or hang-dry, and we save your preferences for every order.
- A Black-owned, women-owned Queens business. Our walk-in laundromat with self-service washers and dryers is open daily from 6AM to 10PM.
