You won’t find any coins at this laundromat. WashSmart Laundry in North Arlington prides themselves not only on being coinless, but they also offer the latest high-powered, energy-efficient washers and dryers that not only clean faster but leave clothes “feeling softer.”

“Who doesn’t like good feeling clothes,” asked the owner, Shravan Kumar. “And they last longer as a bonus.”

WashSmart Laundry, located at 2160 N. Collins St. opened in September of 2025. The family-friendly location offers four different washer sizes. Starting from a washer that can handle two loads of laundry, all the way to a washer that can fit eight loads, or bigger things like comforters and bathroom rugs.

“Even people who have their own washing machines at home like coming here, just because of how much time they can save by only having to do one load,” said Kumar.

All the machines at WashSmart are touchscreen and you can pay using Applepay, Googlepay, credit or debit cards and cash. They also have a Kids Corner, Wi-Fi, and there is always an attendant there to help. They currently offer self-service, a Wash and Fold service, and a new Wash and Go service, where customers can leave after putting clothes in the wash, and an attendant will put them in the dryer and text the customer when they are ready.

WashSmart isn’t just for the normal residential loads of laundry. They also are looking to partner with more commercial customers.

“Whether it’s a hotel owner, a gym, a nursing home, or a salon, any place that you can think of that needs laundry services,  and they want to focus on their core skill instead of focusing on getting their laundry done. We can do it for them,” Kumar said. “We want to be known as the people who can get it done for them.”

Learn more about WashSmart Laundry in Arlington by visiting their Facebook or their website. You can also check them out in person at 2160 N. Collins St. Or you can visit the One Start Development Center, on the second floor at City Hall from January 29 – Feb. 5, during Small Business Promotion week. The City’s Planning and Development Service Department is also hosting Customer Appreciation Week during the same time and will be providing refreshments and bottled water for the customers visiting the Small Business Promotion table.

The City of Arlington is highlighting local small businesses throughout 2026. Canales Furniture, another Small Business of Arlington, who has grown substantially in the last few years, wants to give back to the community and is sponsoring this program with the Planning & Development Services Department for the year 2026. In their new headquarters at 102 E. I-20 Highway, they have dedicated a training room for their growing community, including free English-speaking classes, citizenship classes, and teaching small businesses on how to utilize social media as a marketing tool.
