History

Established in 1999.

We opened the Tacoma store in 1999 by remodeling a closed Laundromat at Westgate South Mall at Pearl and N. 26th. We put in big 4 load washers and dryers to accommodate large loads and comforters.

In 2005, we took over a Laundromat in Federal Way that has been in business since 1982 at 21st SW and Campus Drive SW. We completely updated the store removing all the old toploaders and dryers and putting in huge, 8,6 and 4 load hi-​speed extract washers and new fast drying 4 load dryers. Both stores have double loaders and toploaders available.

Our goal is to provide a clean, safe, comfortable environment with modern equipment for people to wash and dry their clothes.

Business Owner

I love to be «hands-​on» in my business at least a couple times a week doing the cleaning and chatting with customers and answering their questions. Although I am busy being a homemaker for my husband and twin boys, I really enjoy making sure the Laundry is clean. And my husband makes sure every machine is working!

Anything cleaned here will cost you double. Your first machine you choose will undoubtedly be broken and not give you your money back, so you’ll have to pay to use another machine. The actual facility is run down and in need of some basic up keep and the machines smell like balls

Went here today to wash a comforter and when the wash cycle is done… I pull it out to find 2 big black rub marks on it and these were not there before! But who can I talk to? No one! No attendant. While I was there… the washer ate somebodys change and guess what… no attendant! Wash at your own risk! Im NEVER going back there again! I really hope the marks come out.

Close to my work and there is usually open machines available. Change machines usually full if you need quarters.
No one on staff if there is a problem with machines, and I didn’t notice a sign saying who to call if there was a problem.

I strolled into this laundry mat on a sunny Wednesday afternoon. Upon entering my once sunny disposition turned quite glum. Only half of the machines were usable. The others sat there in silence with an ‘out of order’ sign hung on them. I sat and waited for a machine to become available. There was a lady emptying a washer near me. The look on her face of absolute disgust spoke well of her situation. The machine she used failed to run a spin cycle. She was stuck with the conundrum of wether to spend the money to run them again in a different machine, to hand ring all her clothes by hand and then put into dryer, or to just throw the sopping clothes into the dryer and pay more money for the extra dry time. As she pondered, her clothes drained on to the floor thus creating what I now call Lake Lighthouse Laundry! I departed soon after this event. Only to be asked by the obvious methamphetamine addict next to me I had a cigarette.

This place is great! I’ve been going here for the past few weeks while my washer has been out of commission. I love that the washers are super big — they get the job done and quickly.
It’s right near a great coffee shop as well as close to the post office, Fred Meyer, an ATM, and a couple fast food restaurants. It also has free WiFi — so it’s great if you like to maximize your time and tackle a few errands while your load is drying.
The only reason I didn’t give this place 5 stars is that on every occasion I visited, at least a handful of machines were broken and usually one out of the two coin machines is out of commission. On at least one visit, there was a fair amount of water on the floor in parts. Now I’m not a laundromat regular, so perhaps these things are typical and to be expected, so take that with a grain of salt.
Overall, I’m happy I found this place and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. The people seem friendly too.

I haven’t been to a laundromat in over 2 years — but my dryer is on it’s last leg, and I’m getting tired of the LOUD squeaking, anywho… found this laundromat using Google, I was impressed they had a video walkthru of the place. I’m not sure how many «loads» I had, but there were three large baskets overflowing. I threw them in the washer, dropped in $ 4.50 and away they went. One washer went 14 minutes, the other 18… not sure why. The only difference was one I picked cold (18min) the other warm (14min)
The dryers were large industrial things, as clean as could be expected — actually everything was quite clean! I was suprised since the last one I frequented was REALLY dirty… just thought that was normal. Back to the dryers… for $ 0.25 they gave me 4 minutes, and they dried my clothes and towels pretty quickly. There were a few broken ones and I didn’t realize it, so I got to move my clothes around after they were already in the dryer — yaaay.
I’ll keep going back until I get a replacement dryer!

Lighthouse Laundry is in a nicer part of Tacoma on the way to Point Defiance. They face the El Toro Restaurant on the north end of Westgate South. They are in the same shopping center as Albertsons, GNC and McDonalds. They have new and not-​so-​new machines, going up to the four-​loader size. The fast-​spin cycle on the front-​loaders save drying time. It looks small from the outside, but packs alot of machines into a small, cramped maze that stretches back from the front door. The place is more or less clean, and there are vending machines. but not much seating. I suppose you could go next door to Tacoma Del Mar and get a taco during the washing cycle, but NEVER leave your clothes unattended during the drying cycle. It is all self-​serve, so there is no drop-​off, dry-​cleaning or alterations, or attendant. They are open 8am-​9pm, seven days a week.
