Da Nang

Going to Da Nang for two weeks with only one suitcase: the laundry situation

Translated from Vietnamese

A small thing, but it directly affects how much clothing you need to pack. In Da Nang, laundry shops charge by weight, typically around 15,000–25,000 VND per kilogram, and there is usually a minimum of 2–3 kilograms. Same-day wash, dry, and fold service is completely normal — many shops accept your laundry in the morning and have it ready by the afternoon. Compared to hotel laundry service (usually charged per item and many times more expensive), the price difference is huge. A few things you should ask before dropping off your laundry: — Do they wash it separately in its own machine, or is it mixed together with other customers' clothes? If you want it washed separately, let them know in advance — there's usually an extra charge for that. — If it's items that fade easily, wool clothes, or functional sportswear, please say so clearly, or wash them by hand yourself. — How long will it take? During the rainy season, drying takes longer — some shops need a full day. Practical tip: count the items before delivery and take a photo. Not because you're afraid of losing something — that's rare — but because when items from many households are combined together, it's easy for one or two items to get mixed up. With the climate here, clothes dry very quickly, so two beach outfits are enough for the whole trip.
