Laundry Rooms at All-Stars

[whatisgoofy?]

While nobody likes the idea of laundry on vacation...we were thinking about planning to do some, so we can minimize the clothes we need to pack. What do the machines at All-Stars cost, how much is the soap machine, and how late is the laundry room open? Thanks!

There are 6 Laundries at the All-Star Resort(Sports,Music,Movies).

Each resort has 2 Pools and a Laundry is adjacent to each of the 6 Pools.

The Laundries are open 24/7.

The last time I did laundry at WDW,both the washers and driers were $2.00.

I don't remember how much the soap was,but it seems like it was $1.50(not sure though-I brought my own).

Also,you may want to bring quarters with you,JUST IN CASE,the change machine at the Laundry is empty.That will save you a trip to the Front Desk in search of quarters.

We'll do 2 loads midtrip (light & dark) during our afternoon pool break. It's a combo pool, happy hour & laundry break. Those 2 hours pass quickly this way

I do same as other poster. I get a roll of qtrs b4 leaving home specifically for doing laundry. I'll measure out enough soap from home to do 2 loads, put it in a baggie and then put that inside a plastic storage container with 2 dryer sheets. Keeps the soap from leaking inside your suitcase & I like having our brands to use

While laundry not particularly fun to do on vacation, I'd rather do it at a WDW pool afternoon than home anyday

the dryers in the all stars are horrible!!! do not be tempted to overload them -- do small loads.

A lot of stores also sell the little travel packs of laundry detergents in their travel-sized product sections. you can also go over to your local laundromat and buy a couple of the single load products there!! We end up doing laundry at least once too. It's great having the laundry room by the pool, just throw your wash in, go out and relax for a bit, go back in to dry, repeat!! LOL

Here are some pictures from the All Star Movies laundry room (June 2012)

I didn't use the laundry room, so I don't have specific feedback about the cost or efficiency of the machines.
