Frequently Asked Questions – Answers About Our Service, Costs & More.

What is Mr. Timesaver?

Mr. Timesaver is an on-demand laundry & dry cleaning pick-up and delivery service. You can set the date-and-time for your pick-up and your delivery, according to your schedule.

How does Mr. Timesaver work?

You simply go on our website, which is compatible with most devices, schedule pick up and delivery, choose desired services and preferences, and leave the rest to us. A timesaver will bring a laundry bag at pick-up so you can collect your clothing and we’ll be on our way. Our trusted partners will then take care of the washing & dry cleaning. Your order will be delivered to you in the time-slot you scheduled.

Who (dry) cleans, washes and repairs my clothes and shoes?

Our partners! We only work with the best and most trusted local dry cleaners, laundromats, cobblers and tailors, to ensure the best care for your clothes, other textiles, and shoes. We care about our customers and aim to deliver the best experience and quality in the industry. You can be assured that your items are treated with the utmost attention to detail.

How do I benefit from using this service?

We pick-up & deliver your dry cleaning & laundry at a time that fits your schedule best. Most dry cleaners are open on the usual business days and in the usual business hours. We are open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. 6 days a week! Your days of rushing to the dry cleaner before or after work are over.

 

You can save an average of 3.5 hours per week by outsourcing your dry cleaning & laundry duties to us. Free-time is limited nowadays and you shouldn’t have to spend it doing laundry. Finish that book, have some wine, spend time with your family, learn something new, you name it!

What are your operating hours?

Official operating times are 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. from Monday to Saturday. On Sunday we’re closed. Delivery is 24 hours after the pick-up time, or later if you prefer. Faster delivery may be optional upon request.

 

Pick-ups in the weekend have different delivery schedules than in the week. If your items are picked up between 11 a.m. on Saturday and 12 p.m. on Sunday they can be delivered on Monday after 12 p.m. If however your items are picked up before 11 a.m. on Saturday they can still be delivered to you in 24 hours.

Why should I use your service instead of my neighborhood dry cleaner/cobbler?

We work with local dry cleaners and cobblers with many years experience. They ensure your items are treated with the highest possible standard. We have tested many dry cleaners and cobblers before we chose our partners, so we can guarantee you get the quality you expect, every time.

 

With us, your time is valued. You can schedule your dry cleaning & shoe repairs at the time of day that works better for you. No need to stick to the typical 9 – 5 opening hours. You don’t need to pay cash, and you won’t ever lose your dry cleaning ticket! Our standard is 24 hour turnaround time. So, you won’t need to negotiate the duration of your dry cleaning with the dry cleaner. You tell us when you want it back!

If our repair specialist determines that the damage cannot be repaired and was a result of the delivery/cleaning process, then Mr. Timesaver will assume full responsibility and provide either a replacement for the item (if available), reimbursement of the item cost, or Mr. Timesaver credit for use on future orders. Please note that there are exceptions and the customer should be aware of this.
