About Blue Kangaroo

Founded in 1990 by Steven and Jessica MacDonald, Blue Kangaroo began as a single, family-owned laundromat with a simple mission: to provide a better laundry experience. Built on core values of quality, integrity, and community, the business has always prioritized creating exceptionally clean, safe, and welcoming environments for every customer. This commitment has helped Blue Kangaroo grow from its humble beginnings to a trusted name in laundry services. Choosing Blue Kangaroo means opting for a business that values personalized customer service and a team-driven approach, ensuring every visit is a positive one. It's a neighborhood laundromat that genuinely cares about its community and the people it serves.

Blue Kangaroo offers a comprehensive range of services designed for convenience and efficiency. For those short on time, the professional Wash and Fold service provides expert care for your clothes, using your preferred detergents, with a ten-pound minimum per order. The self-service area is equipped with an impressive array of oversized washers and dryers, with capacities from 20 to 90 pounds, perfect for bulky items or large family loads. The facility is designed for comfort, featuring extra-large folding tables, a mini-mart for laundry essentials, and even a Kids Korner in most locations. Modern payment options, including mobile and credit card payments at select machines, add to the ease of use. Customers consistently note the reasonable prices, and the value is enhanced further through the Kangaroo Clean Club, a loyalty program that rewards repeat customers with free laundry services.
