Dry cleaning vending machines will soon pop up across the UK

The tiresome chore of taking your clothes to the dry-cleaners could soon be a thing of the past, thanks to new dry-cleaning vending machines.

VClean is ‘on the cusp’ of launching a range of vending machines, dubbed VDrop machines, across London and the UK, where you can conveniently drop off and pick up your laundry as and when it suits.

On its website, VClean said: “Gone are the days of begrudgingly driving to the dry cleaners on a Saturday.

“Say goodbye to the battle of parking half a mile from the shop as you drag your clothes to a packed dry cleaners.

“Trying not to breathe any of the nasty chemicals as you stand bored in the queue waiting to drop off your items. Only to repeat the process the very next week to collect.”

To use the VDrop machines, users simply flash a QR code on their smartphone, and drop off their laundry.

The machine then uses ‘green cleaning’ to clean your laundry.

The website explained: “While “green cleaning” may be a new concept to many, it isn’t to us.

“We’ve been offering our environmentally friendly cleaning service for a while now.

“We have worked relentlessly to uncover the ultimate harmony between products and technology to deliver you unparalleled results.”

One of the best features is the user-friendly system which allow you to drop off laundry at one machine, and pick it up from another.

The website said: “If you want to drop off your suit at the Underground but collect it at work the next day – no problem at all.

“Or maybe you want to leave your workout gear at the gym machine, and find a fresh shirt and suit waiting for you, which you’d dropped at your office machine – again, no problem!”

And while you might think that such a service would come with a hefty price tag, it’s quite the opposite – shirts cost just £2.50, while other items cost £3.

It is unclear when and where VClean expects to open the vending machines.
