pesukeskus

Pesukeskus is an Estonian term that translates to "laundry center" or "laundromat." It refers to a commercial establishment that offers self-service washing and drying facilities for the public. These centers are equipped with coin-operated or card-operated washing machines and dryers of various sizes. Customers bring their own laundry detergent and fabric softener, or these can often be purchased on-site.

Pesukeskused typically provide a clean and convenient environment for individuals who do not have laundry facilities in their homes, such as students living in dormitories, apartment dwellers without in-unit machines, or travelers. Many pesukeskused also offer additional services like ironing boards, sometimes even ironing services, and seating areas for customers to wait while their laundry is in progress. The operational model is designed for efficiency, allowing multiple loads of laundry to be processed simultaneously. Access to these facilities is usually straightforward, requiring payment for the use of the machines. They are a common sight in urban and suburban areas across Estonia, serving a practical need for accessible and affordable laundry solutions.
