Using laundry and dry-cleaning services in Egypt
Laundries are in every neighbourhood. One extra check before handing over valuable clothes saves trouble.
Before drop-off
- Count the items in front of the staff and write the number on the receipt.
- Empty pockets of documents, cash and devices.
- Point out valuable or special fabrics and ask whether dry cleaning suits them.
At pick-up
- Check for stains, damage and missing items before leaving.
- Photograph any damage and raise it with the shop quickly. Disputes with a company can go to the Consumer Protection Agency.
