You may arrange to have Items collected from, or re-delivered to, a third party, on condition that you do so at your own risk and the third party is prepared to sign an acknowledgement on your behalf. You may also by written instructions to us, request Us to leave an Item in an agreed location without providing Us with an acknowledgement. If you do so, it is at Our discretion and entirely at your own risk and we shall not be liable to you for any damage or loss of Items re-delivered on this basis.
Service Standards
We will provide the Services with reasonable care and skill in accordance with good industry standards. We will also not be liable for any delay or non-performance of our Services where you have failed to provide accurate information in your Order, for example if an address is incomplete or inaccurate; if you fail to accept redelivery of Items in accordance with an order; We will not be liable for any Items submitted to us that have an increased risk of damage, including, but not limited to, (Items: with special requirements or instructions for cleaning; with no label indicating cleaning instructions; which are damaged or stained; and bearing an extraneous or hazardous thing, e.g., pins, jewellery, coins, pens, etc.) and at our discretion and with your consent may agree to provide the Services at your risk in respect of those Items.
Wash and Fold Orders– Checking Items- Please ensure to thoroughly check all the garments for hazardous items e.g. coins, pens, keys, etc. as we hold no responsibility for any items lost or damaged as a result of the cleaning process.
Washing and Drying Process– The load is washed at a 30-degree cycle and tumble dried at a medium heat. As we process a high volume, we might not always be able to cater to personal requirements (e.g. temperature, washing powders, etc.). Please note that the items are not ironed.
Colour Separation– We will separate the clothes into lights and darks for you. Although we will take the utmost care in doing this, we will accept no responsibility if there is any bleeding or colour transfer during the cleaning process.
Size of Bag– We will measure the laundry by weight. The minimum weight is 7kg. We will update this after we have weighed it at the facility. Any orders below 7kg will be charged at the Wash, Tumble Dry & Fold price.
Damaged Items– We will not be liable for damage to items as we wash by the load and do not inspect the care labels of each garment. For garments that need to be specially treated i.e. leather, silk, cashmere, fur, velvet and other delicate garments, please ensure that these items can be machine washed and tumble dried.
Tagging– Laundry items are tagged by the load and not individually tagged. Therefore, we cannot accept any liability for missing items.
If there is a problem with the services
If there is any problem with the Services: please contact our Customer Support Team by email at info@laundrylite.com as detailed on the App and tell Us as soon as reasonably possible. You will not have to pay to deal with your complaint.
Complaints should be notified to Us within 24 hours of redelivery of any Item if you believe that We are in breach of our obligations under these Terms. As a consumer, you have statutory rights if our Services are not carried out with reasonable skill and care, or if the materials used are faulty or not as described. Advice about your legal rights is available from your local Citizens’ Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office. Nothing in these Terms will affect these legal rights.
Price and payment
The price of the Services will be set out in Our price list as set out in the App or at www.laundrylite.com/prices and will be the price in force at the time you place your Order. Our prices may change at any time, but price changes will not affect Orders that We have accepted. Our prices include VAT.
However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date we accept your Order and the date of payment, we will have to adjust the rate of VAT that you pay.
Upon placing an Order, we capture the payment but do not directly charge your card although some banks will show it as a recent transaction. We process payments when we have received your Order at the facility and after cleaning. If your final total is greater than your captured total (i.e. we need to update your Order accordingly) it may show on your recent transactions, but the captured amount will be released when we have taken the full payment.
We will take payment from the debit or credit card, details of which were supplied with your Order. If for any reason we are unable to take payment you will become liable to Us for the sum due plus interest at the rate 3% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank PLC from the time to time. Interest will accrue on a daily basis from due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay Us interest together with any overdue amount.
