Exciting Changes in LC's Laundry Program!

There is an exciting new laundry program at Lynchburg College that includes:

  • New energy-efficient front load washers
  • A new laundry card
  • Ability to add value to your card with cash, online and/or using your cell phone!

Caldwell Gregory LogoOur new laundry service provider, Caldwell & Gregory, has installed new high efficiency "front load" washers and dryers in all laundry rooms. These washers work differently than top load models.


** IMPORTANT INFORMATION **

The new washers require a lot less soap!
PLEASE USE ONLY LIQUID HE-TYPE DETERGENT.
Look for this symbol on the bottle when purchasing your detergent: Logo High Efficiency
Follow the manufacturer's directions for the correct amount of detergent to use. If your detergent is concentrated, you will need to use even less!

  • Soap and liquid fabric softener go into the dispenser - not directly on the clothing.
  • The door will lock approximately 30 seconds after the cycle starts and WILL NOT unlock until after the cycle completes. Do not try to open the door while the washer is running!
  • You will need a laundry card to use the machines.


About the New Cards

If you pre-purchased a card through Caldwell & Gregory prior to August 1st, your card will be distributed to you during check-in. If you did not pre-purchase, cards can be purchased on campus when you arrive.

The cost is $10 per card and includes $7 value. The cost per wash and dry is $1 each per load.

  • Pre-treat any stains you may have with a pre-treat product such as Shout.
  • Use only Liquid HE-type detergent.
  • Use the correct part of the soap dispenser for both the detergent and liquid fabric softener.
  • One wash load = One dryer load.
  • Be sure and empty the dryer's lint filter after each use.
