Get Paid To Wash Other People’s Dirty Laundry
MADRID, SPAIN - NOVEMBER 25: Interior of a self-service laundromat on November 24, 2022, in Madrid, Spain. Self-service laundries have become a booming business in the face of rising electricity prices. The washing machine represents almost 12% of total electricity consumption in Spanish households. Therefore, in order to save on the electricity bill, more and more people are deciding to do their laundry in these self-service laundries. The self-service washing machine kits cover practically any size of premises, from the so-called 'Mini self-service', which consists of 2 washing machines (11 and 15 kg) and two dryers (11 and 15 kg); to the 'Maxi', consisting of 4 washing machines and 4 dryers of 11 kg and 2 washing machines and 2 dryers of 16 kg.

If you are looking to work but do not want to leave your home, you may consider doing other people’s laundry. You could make up to $5,000 a month. I do not know how I would feel folding strangers’ underwear, but for $5,000 a month, I might consider a pair of rubber gloves and folding those unmentionables all day long!
KTLA says a startup company, called SudShare, is paying people to wash other people’s dirty laundry. The company bills itself as an ‘Uber for laundry’. Basically you are hired as an independent contractor to wash, dry, fold, and deliver laundry. There’s an app for everything, so we don’t have to do anything, and that is where SudShare comes in. SudShare operates through a mobile app of the same name. The company says they outsource chores so you can enjoy life. The service is available in over 400 American cities.
Washers agree to wash other people’s dirty laundry in their own home. They pick up, wash, fold and then deliver clean clothes within 24 hours. There are over 200,000 ‘Sudsters’ nationwide. The average washer makes $200 a week. Sudshare charges $1 a pound for cleaning. Washers keep 75% of every dollar. The company’s top 10 Sudsters earn over $5,000 a month. This is not a new service since SudShare was co-founded in 2018 by Mort and Nachshon Fertel in Baltimore, Maryland.
