The drop center operates as a streamlined, low-overhead model, handling customer intake and pickup while outsourcing the actual cleaning to a trusted local plant. This structure reduces operational complexity and eliminates the need for expensive on-site dry-cleaning equipment, making it an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or investor seeking a simple, stable business with predictable cash flow.
Services offered include dry cleaning, laundry, alterations, and garment care for both individual and commercial clients. The business is fully turnkey with established vendor relationships, long-term customers, and clear procedures in place.

Property Features and Assets:

Market Competition and Expansion:

This dry cleaner drop center operates in a market with relatively low direct competition in its immediate area, giving it a distinct advantage in attracting and retaining customers. While larger full-service dry cleaners exist in the broader Houston region, few offer the same convenient drop-off and pickup model without requiring customers to wait or handle complex transactions on-site. This streamlined approach appeals to busy individuals and commercial clients who value quick, reliable service.

Additionally, the business benefits from its long-established presence and strong reputation, which new entrants or chains have yet to replicate locally. By outsourcing cleaning to a trusted local plant, the drop center maintains high-quality standards without the overhead and operational challenges faced by traditional dry cleaning businesses.

Competitors that do exist often focus on price-driven strategies or limited service offerings, whereas this business balances affordability with personalized customer care and dependable turnaround times. With minimal direct competition nearby and strong community ties, this drop center enjoys a defensible market position that new owners can build on to increase market share.

Reason for Selling:

Other Business Venture. Kindly ask the seller for more information.

High Volume Coin Laundromat

Not Disclosed, TX
Denton County

Laundry business for sale. High-volume coin laundry with 19 years of organic growth and an extremely well-maintained workforce in North Dallas, is available for acquisition. This business was established in 2002 by the previous owner, that has built the business from the ground up and has organically grown the operation by keeping all equipment in impeccable condition while providing top-of-the-line services. The business is located in a 3,063 SF freestanding building next to one of the city's busiest roads, with heavy traffic throughout all hours of the day. It is surrounded by numerous retail businesses and restaurants that attract many people to the local area. Outside the local area, the pick-up & delivery vans go around the DFW metroplex servicing many large corporate accounts and any residential area that requested service from their website. Most of the customers are corporate accounts from various locations around the DFW metroplex, with some customers that physically come to the facility for self-service wash & dry. There are several competitors within the immediate market area, but this is the only coin laundry that provides Pickup & Delivery service in this area. Also, this business has a relatively large facility and top-of-the-line equipment compared to other competitors. Sales steadily grew at $690K-$710K over the last several years, with a slight decrease in self-service and an increase in PUD in 2020. COVID-19 dropped self-service and PUD sales initially, but PUD (Pick up & Delivery) was recovered by the end of the year by establishing a large corporate account. As of 2021, the business is now on track to exceed 2020 sales by over 82%, with all three revenue streams fully recovered and growing rapidly. Currently, some online marketing is in place through its website and Google Ads. But more online marketing especially building a social media presence, would generate more revenue and reduce unnecessary marketing expenses. Hiring an additional salesperson or dedicated staff that handles Pickup & Delivery marketing to acquire more corporate accounts will generate more revenues for the business with some added labor. This is a great opportunity to acquire one of the highest volume coin laundries with a top-of-the-line facility for a potential buyer willing to be more hands-on in the day-to-day operation and marketing to reach out to untapped areas of the city.
