Frequently Asked Questions

We believe in keeping things simple, our machines are calibrated on Kg basis and we derive our costing on Kg. basis, therefore to keep complex equations out of the way we charge for our services on Kg. basis. We also know that charging piece-wise could give us more margins but, DhobiLite as a company believes in keeping our charges fair and that's why laundry services are charged on Kg. basis.

Although number of clothes in a Kg may vary depending upon the weight of the cloth but, usually if we are talking of daily wear cloths (excluding Jeans) generally 3-4 Gents cloths / 5-6 ladies cloths make a Kg.

Dry-cleaning is a "wet" process wherein we use detergents as well. The only difference is that instead of water hydro-carbons are used (generally called as petrol wash).

DhobiLite offers a plethora of services for laundry and all these services have different rates. As most of our customers avail our Premium laundry services they naturally want the same level of quality in their undergarments as well. However, undergarments are taken as wash only and are not ironed, therefore to remove any confusion as to what service is required for undergarments we take undergarments on piece basis.

We are very sensitive towards hygiene, all cloths are treated with an antiseptic to make sure that cloths are disinfected.

In case any issue is found in the article at the time of inspection before processing, we will send an SMS. We request you to respond quickly.

Minimum order size is the minimum value of the order in Rupees which is required by us. The value depends upon the location and is subject to change without any prior notice. To keep communication, clear we send a system generated SMS to the user upon successful placing of order so that there is no confusion later. We also know that you may want to try our services first before trusting us with your valuable cloths therefore, *first order has lesser minimum order size*.

Undergarments are billed on piece basis.

Close to 7-9 undergarments (vest / underwear) makes a Kg. So if wash only charges are 74/Kg and on top of that undergarments are to handled seperately whose charges will be extra, than clearly per pc charge for an undergarment would be 10+.

Internet Handling Charge is a small percentage of amount we charge on every payment done using ?Online Payment? methods.

You can avoid paying this charge if you use our ?Prepaid Plans?. Our plans offer exiting discounts on Laundry & Dry-cleaning and they have ?No Expiry Date?. So buy DhobiLite Prepaid Plans and get rid of Internet Haandling Charge and hassle of finding "change" amount while paying for our services.

No, a general feedback from our customer is that the dry-cleaning cost of shoes is very high, and to keep the costs low we have kept margins low on Shoe Dry-cleaning therefore there are no discounts on Shoe Dry-cleaning.

Well!!! this generally does not happen, but to give confidence to our customers we assure them that in case of any such incident, we will reimburse up to a maximum of 3 times the processing cost of the garment to the customer only in DhobiLite Prepaid account.

Usually, we take care that such incidents don't happen but due to high humidity in the atmosphere sometimes the clothes retain moisture, as a result, they start to smell after being kept packed for some time. Therefore, to mitigte this we suggest you to unpack your clothes soon after they are delivered back to you during monsoon season or extreme winters.
