Commercial Laundry Training

Cutting-edge washers, dryers, and finishing equipment only make up part of the puzzle of running an on-premise laundry facility. We understand that the best commercial laundry equipment is only as effective as the attendants, technicians, and staff who run it. We strongly recommend on-site commercial laundry training to our clients, teaching their staff how to operate and maintain equipment safely and efficiently. 

Training courses for operating commercial laundry equipment can range from on-site sessions to brand-specific seminars at suppliers’ facilities to online courses. We find that few options are as effective as hands-on training completed at your facility. Our on-premise laundry experts will visit your shop floor to ensure that your operators, technicians, and attendants receive the knowledge necessary to work confidently and professionally.
