What to Know About Laundry in East Boston Apartments
Most East Boston apartments do not include in-unit washer and dryer hookups. Some buildings have shared laundry rooms, but these often have limited capacity, inconsistent maintenance, and peak-hour availability issues. Newcomers who are used to doing laundry at home often find the adjustment to shared or public laundry options one of the more friction-heavy parts of settling into East Boston.
New East Boston residents should expect that most apartments in the neighborhood do not include in-unit laundry. If your building has shared laundry, check whether the machines are card or coin-operated and how many machines are available relative to the number of units. For buildings without any shared laundry, Neptune Laundry at 489 Saratoga St is the closest full-service laundry option — with self-service, wash and fold, and pickup and delivery all available. We are open from 5:30 AM to midnight every day, making it easy to fit laundry into your new East Boston routine.
