The post Your Personal Timesaver At Your Request: How Mr. Timesaver Works appeared first on Mr. Timesaver©.

There are many benefits to using a dry cleaning delivery service as you have read in one of our previous blogs, but why should you use Mr. Timesaver instead of other delivery services? Well, there’s no other like us. Check out the next points to find out more about why we’re the better choice for you.

1. You order with Mr. Timesaver, so we’re responsible for your clothes

There are some other companies out there that provide similar services to ours. But the difference is that they only handle the order and pass it through to dry cleaning & laundry facilities. In those cases, the dry cleaners are the ones responsible for picking up, cleaning and delivering your items back to you. You have no idea who they are and if they’ll handle your clothes with the care needed. In other cases, your items are picked up and delivered by couriers employed by a completely different company. Who is liable for your items if they are damaged or lost?

 

When you order from Mr. Timesaver, a timesaver picks up your items, inspects them, takes them to the appropriate partners, picks them back up from the partners and delivers them back to you.

No middle man. Less chance of something going wrong, like items going missing, or being damaged. After cleaning or repairs, we store your items in our facilities until they go out for delivery. We’re also the ones taking on the responsibility of your items when they leave your hands. You can rest assured that in those rare cases something does go wrong, you’ll be covered.

2. We’re constantly improving

We’re almost 3 years in now, and we can’t even remember how our service, website and quality was when we first started. So much improvement has happened over this short time. We listen to you and we adapt. We’re constantly working on ways to improve your experience with us. Changes happen often. In a year you might not even remember the process as it is now!

3. Our delivery service is super flexible

No other company can provide the flexibility and convenience we do. 1 hour time-slots from 7 a.m. until midnight, 7 days a week. We have standard next day delivery (with the exception of certain items: curtains, rugs, wedding gowns). We’re even open on Sunday. Need to reschedule, have your items delivered at a different address? No problem! Just call us. Your time is important to us. You tell us when, and we’ll be there! You don’t have to worry about our closing times, and rushing after work.

4. We test our partners to ensure quality

When you order from a different provider, you never know if your items will be treated by tested dry cleaners or cobblers. We test our partners before working with them, thus ensuring high, consistent quality, each and every time. Our partners are experienced and known in The Hague area. They are not the standard “around the corner” stores. They are professionals with names for themselves.

5. We know exactly where your clothes are at all times

Since we pick-up, deliver and handle everything in between, we know exactly where your items are at all times. Your items are marked, cleaned, repaired, and stored for delivery. Your items are also handled seperate from other “walk-in” customers at our partners’ facilities.

6. Familiar faces

The chances are, if a timesaver picks-up your items, the same person will probably be the one delivering them back to you. Our timesavers have their own areas to serve. This also means that you see a familiar face everytime you use Mr. Timesaver. A person you can build a rapport with. It’s not uncommon for our timesaver to be hugged by our users’ kids and to be called by name.

7. Competitive prices – More benefits

Our prices don’t differ much from your local dry cleaner. The only big difference is that we offer more benefits for that price. Our prices include pick-up and delivery fees and next day service. Even our weekend and night prices are the same. We also offer loyalty cards. With this loyalty card, you can collect stamps on each order. Loyalty card benefits include: a free bed sheet package service, shoe polish service, and ultimately, 20% off an entire order. You wont get that deal at your local dry cleaner.

8. Bonus: Your time is important to us

At the end of the day, our main focus is making your life easier in every way we can. Yes, we care about proper cleaning and repairing of your items, but with Mr. Timesaver, you get more than just clean clothes and polished shoes. You get peace of mind. You get more time to breathe. We work day and night to make your life easier. Here’s a little more about how our service works.

The post Dry Cleaning Delivery Service: 5 Benefits you need to know now! appeared first on Mr. Timesaver©.

What is stress?

Stress is your body’s way of responding to any kind of demand and/or threat. When you feel threatened your nervous system responds by releasing a flood of stress hormones, which include adrenaline and cortisol, which awaken the body for emergency action. Your heart pounds faster, your muscles tighten, your blood pressure rises, your breath quickens, and your senses are sharpened. The physical changes increase your strength, stamina, speeds up your reaction time, and enhances your focus. 

By applying the following 6 tips, you will be able to manage your stress more easily and prevent damage to your mind and body.

1. Better sleep = better stress management

Sleep is often taken for granted and seen as a sign of weakness among busy “hard working” individuals. But sleep has important effects on health and well-being. Lack of sleep influences stress. Sleep deprived individuals experience higher levels of stress and psychological strain than individuals who get a proper night’s rest. Sleep is one of the most important parts of health and performance. Get a better night’s sleep and improve your quality of life today!

2. Find a hobby

Hobbies are not reserved for people who lead quiet and relaxed lives. Busy people, with full lives may need hobbies more than the average person. It allows you to take a break, without real responsibilities, and brings meaning and fun to your life. Those who feel overwhelmed at a job can benefit from hobbies because they provide an outlet for stress and something to look forward to after a hard day/week at a stress filled job.

3. Daily planning

Your workload is probably high, and you have many other (urgent) tasks on your to-do list. Because of this, you’re anxious, you can’t concentrate, and everything seems to distract you. End every night with a plan for the next day, including a morning routine. By creating a good morning routine for yourself, you can focus on the important things throughout your day.  Plan your days according to Eisenhower’s Urgent/Important Principle as seen in the chart below. This principle helps you think about your priorities, and determine which of your activities are important and which are, essentially, distractions. Start your days goal oriented, efficient, and conscious while maintaining control over the rest of the day.

4. Engage socially

Social engagement is the fastest, and most efficient way to manage stress and avoid overreacting to events that you perceive as threatening. Communicating with a person who makes you feel safe and understood calms your nervous system. Have lunch or coffee with a friend, accompany someone to the movies, schedule a weekly dinner date, or simply go for a walk with a workout buddy. Opening up to someone is not a sign of weakness, and most friends will even be flattered that you trust them enough to confide in them.

5. Outsource your chores

Running errands, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, and buying groceries takes up a lot of time. They seem like easy, simple tasks but they actually give you unnecessary stress. They do not add much value to your personal growth but do add weight to your shoulders. On-demand services are growing rapidly and looking at our current lifestyle it’s not hard to understand why. We want more convenience, more simplicity, and to be completely honest, we just need a hand sometimes. Have your groceries delivered, order some take-out (many healthy options available!), and have your laundry, dry cleaning, and more picked up and delivered in just a few clicks. This leaves you with more time to focus on the important (see #3) and have some peace of mind.

6. Exercise & Meditation

Exercise is good for your body. You know that. Everyone knows that, but you’re too busy and stressed to fit it into your daily routine. Even a little exercise however, goes a long way in managing stress. It pumps up your endorphins (your brain’s feel-good neurotransmitters). It’s meditation in motion, making you forget the day’s irritations while only focusing only on your body’s movements. It also improves your mood, your self-confidence, and relaxes you.

Spending even a few minutes in meditation a day can restore your calm and inner peace. Anyone can practice meditation, as it’s simple, inexpensive, and doesn’t require special equipment. Check out Headspace for guided meditations that you can easily fit into your day.

First, let’s talk about the millennials

Also called generation Y, born between 1980 and 2000. Maybe you are one. If so, this may all seem familiar. Unlike their parents, millennials don’t want to spend most of their time at the office, working from 09.00 to 17.00 while making a lot of money. What makes them happiest is doing fun things, spending time with friends and family, and traveling. They need to have enough time for it. Generation Y thus either work less or work smarter. Because they grew up with computers and technology the latter is probably true. Automation processes can take over some of the manual labor, and more time is left for personal endeavors. Because that is also important for millennials. They want to do work that adds value. Value for the company, the process or people. Millennials want to contribute to a better world.

In the period millennials were growing up, a person’s value was in his possessions.

A big house, a BMW in the driveway, brandname clothes. If you had those things, you made it. Slowly however, we care less about “stuff”. That is because more and more people realize that in order to make these things, valuable raw materials need to be used that are not abundantly available. Furthermore, the workers making these “stuff” in the factories in developing countries are not treated all too well. That doesn’t fit the better world blueprint most millennials follow. Therefor, they make more conscious purchasing decisions. Second hand and vintage stores are more popular than ever. For new items, quality comes first to make sure the products are more durable. On the other side, free-time has become a valuable good because of the longer work hours. Spending time on sports, hobbies, friends and family is more important to millennials than possessions.

Why are on-demand delivery services becoming so popular?

You only buy what you absolutely need. A car? Why, if you have Uber to take you anywhere in the tap of a button? You don’t need to pay for gas, no taxes, no car insurance, no maintenance costs, no carwash. That saves a lot of money. A washing machine? Why would you spend your time and money on laundry if Mr. Timesaver can do it all for you, with the same effort it takes to order a pizza. With on-demand services you can forget about expensive purchases and possessions.

On-demand delivery services help with:

•  Waste / pollution management
•  Money management
•  Time management by outsourcing meals, chores, & more.

If you look at what millennials value the most, you can see why on-demand services are growing, right?

How will our lives look in 10 years?

Most people still have cars and washing machines. It gives a feeling of certainty. “I can drive off or wash clothes whenever I feel like it”. But this of course is also possible with on-demand services. These services wouldn’t exist without the flexibility and excellent customer experiences they offer. Will parking-lots be much emptier in 10 years? Will domestic washing machines and dryers be a thing of the past? What is your fantasy about this? How do you see the on-demand industry affecting how we live now?

The post On-Demand Services: I want it and I want it NOW! appeared first on Mr. Timesaver©.

Busy, busy, busy. Because of this lack of free-time we don’t spend enough quality time with our kids, partners, or ourselves anymore. That makes us feel guilty. Research shows that 37% of all working parents would like to spend more time with their kids, and 30% would like to spend more time with each other. But, more astoundingly, half of all working parents long for more alone time. Time to see their friends, practice their hobbies, or exercise.

Time consuming chores take up all your time!

Of course work swallows up most of our time, but what about chores? Take laundry for instance. It costs 26 minutes to separate clothing, load the washing machine, put them in the dryer, fold them, and then put them away. A family does laundry on average 6 times per week. Do the math! On top of that approximately 55 additional minutes are spent on *whoop!* ironing. That’s 3,5 hours of your week, gone!

That time is enough to do something fun with your kids, have dinner with your partner, or go for a jog around the neighborhood. In the meantime, Mr. Timesaver will take care of your laundry & dry cleaning. Just plan your pick-up & delivery at a time that suits you best, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Mr. Timesaver is open 7 days a week, from 7 a.m. until midnight.
