I searched the tags and didn't quite find the answer I'm looking for. 

I live between Davis and Teele and I'm looking for a wash and fold service that is cheap to middle of the road priced that has ample parking available. I can drive to neighboring towns so it doesn't have to be in Davis Square. I'm looking for a stress free experience which means not having to look for street parking or to double park or to fight difficult traffic to get there and back.

I know about North Cambridge Laundry and I might give them a try but getting out of their parking lot to go left up cameron may push the  stress level over the top.

Another option might be pickup and delivery service but if it costs more, I'll probably just drive it there myself.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

A Wash & Fold with parking that I have used is Circle Laundry in Medford, because I was driving that way for a while anyhow. It is behind the CVS in Wellington Circle. They were pleasant and affordable.

There are a few places in Teele Square on Broadway. They even say they'll pick it up for free if you want. I live in the area and never have trouble finding parking.
Try Teele Square Laundomat or Kirkland Cleaners.

No idea what their pricing is like compared to over places but there is a place at Elm and Somerville Ave that does both. They have parking.

It's Showcase Laundry, and it's 99c a pound the last time I used them (got my own W/D back in Sept.). They have plenty of parking, except the lot does get pretty crowded on weekend afternoons. I don't think they do pickup/delivery.

I used Showcase for years, but recently had to stop after one too many screw-ups (got my bags of laundry mixed up with someone else's, didn't have laundry done when they said they would, didn't give me all my bags of laundry- which we didn't notice until the next day when we realized we had no clean pants!, frequently lack correct change to give you). I recommend staying away from them until they get their act together.

pickup/delivery

Anyone know of any pickup/delivery laundry services in the area? I live on Highland near the Somerville hospital, and I'm sick right now and don't feel like going out into the crappy weather to do laundry. I did a quick google and couldn't find anything.

I'm a long-time and very happy customer of North Cambridge Laundry, but their parking lot is seriously annoying. I recently tried Royal White, on Cedar St in Somerville, which has plenty of parking. About half my t-shirts camb back nicely folded — but inside-out. Which makes it kind of hard to pick out a t-shirt in the morning.

Kirkland Cleaners, formerly Clarendon Laundromat, is on Broadway between Teele and Route 16 and has drop-off/pick-up. There's street parking that varies depending on the time, but if you're just dropping off you should be able to find a spot. I think it's 85 cents a pound.

Highland Laundromat, on Highland just east of Davis? I don't use wash & fold myself but in the past I've overheard the super-friendly owners telling people it's $1/lb (not sure if that's still the rate or not, that was a year ago or so). They have an 8-car mini-lot right in front.

i second the recommendation for highland laundromat. the owners are very sweet and wash and fold is $1/lb and they fold everything so nicely. i've been there at all conceivable times and it's never really busy. they have parking out front. it's a small lot but there are always available spots. and it's conveniently located near kick ass cupcakes and when pigs fly bakery, so you could do laundry *and* have yourself a little treat.
