When a customer drops off their clothes to you for cleaning it is often times a simple wash. Other times, you are taking care of something they cherish like a wedding dress. Regardless of what type of item you’re servicing for them, they trust your business to take care of their clothes. You can help protect them and yourself with an insurance policy that is custom tailored for laundromat and dry cleaning businesses.

Laundromats and Dry Cleaners coverage

Coverages available for laundromats and dry cleaners include:

General Liability provides coverage in the event of a customer’s injury, such as slip and falls from a puddle of water in your laundromat. Coverage would help pay for medical bills, attorney fees and more.
