Laundry is the no. 1 amenity students complain about, thanks to long waits, broken machines and confusing payments, which all add friction to campus life. Caldwell & Gregory helps turn those complaints into compliments with modern, reliable campus laundry solutions designed for how students live today and how administrators operate.
We partner with colleges and universities to design, manage and support on-campus laundry programs that work better for everyone involved. From first-year residence halls to upper-class housing, our approach blends technology, service and operational clarity to improve the student experience while reducing the burden on campus teams.
Students spend a lot of time learning, so the laundry process shouldn’t be one extra thing to learn. Laundry for students should be mobile, fast and intuitive. Our student laundry app brings transparency and control to the laundry room — right from a smartphone.
Students can view machine availability before they walk in, receive push notifications when cycles are complete and pay without coins or cards. Refunds, confirmations and alerts happen digitally, reducing frustration and support requests.
This is cashless campus laundry designed for Gen Z expectations. When laundry fits seamlessly into student life, satisfaction rises and complaints fall.
Laundry issues should not compete with student life priorities. With Caldwell & Gregory, campus teams gain a partner that handles the operational heavy lifting. Our model is rooted in service, accountability and responsiveness.
We provide 24/7 customer support and proactive maintenance to minimize downtime. When an issue arises, it is addressed quickly by teams who understand campus environments. Administrators gain clear visibility into performance while avoiding day-to-day involvement in repairs or troubleshooting.
You focus on student life. We focus on the spin cycle.
Our consultative approach ensures each program supports your housing mix, usage patterns and long-term campus plans. Because that’s how university laundry services should work — quietly, reliably and without unnecessary complexity.

Many campuses have ambitious sustainability goals, and laundry plays a meaningful role in those initiatives. Our equipment selections and system designs prioritize water and energy efficiency, supporting campus-wide green efforts without sacrificing performance.
Efficient machines, optimized cycles and reduced downtime help limit unnecessary resource use. These improvements align with institutional commitments to responsible and sustainable operations while delivering dependable dorm laundry management across residence halls.
Supporting sustainable operations doesn’t have to be intrusive to your usual calendar. That’s why we ensure our program is integrated into daily operations so that it stays practical and measurable.
We work closely with administrators, housing teams and student representatives to design laundry rooms that reflect how each community lives and studies.
From room layouts and equipment mix to technology configuration and service plans, our university laundry services are specific and never templated. The result is a consistent experience students can trust and staff can rely on.
Laundry may be a small part of campus life, but it leaves a lasting impression when it works well.
