FAQ — Hostels & Guesthouses
1001What's your cheapest rate for hostel laundry?
Our next-day commercial bulk rate is the most affordable option in Labuan Bajo. Contact us on WhatsApp for a specific quote based on your hostel's bed count and weekly volume.
02Can you handle a 50-bed hostel?
Yes, easily. We process large hostel volumes daily. A 50-bed hostel's linen output is well within our standard capacity.
03How often should we schedule pickup?
Most hostels with daily turnover schedule pickup every day or every other day. We'll recommend the best frequency based on your bed count and occupancy patterns.
04Do you wash mattress protectors and pillow protectors?
Yes. Mattress protectors, pillow protectors, and duvet inners can all go through our commercial wash. These items are typically done on a weekly rotation rather than every turnover.
05Is outsourcing cheaper than buying a washing machine?
For most hostels, yes. When you add up equipment cost, maintenance, water bills, electricity, and staff time, outsourcing to Tidal Wash costs less per kg — with zero capital investment.
06What if we get a last-minute group booking?
Message us on WhatsApp. We offer priority same-day processing for urgent orders so you can handle surprise bookings without scrambling.
07Can you pick up from our guesthouse?
Yes, free pickup and delivery is included for all commercial hostel clients. We'll come to your front desk or storage area at the scheduled time.
08Do you wash guest personal laundry?
We can process guest laundry alongside your linens. Many hostels offer laundry service to guests as an add-on revenue stream — we handle the washing, you set the guest price.
09How do you keep our linens separate from other clients?
Every client's laundry is tagged, processed separately, and tracked through our system. Your hostel's linens are never mixed with other businesses.
10Can we adjust our schedule during low season?
Absolutely. Switch from daily to 3x per week, or weekly during quiet periods. Just let us know on WhatsApp and we'll adjust immediately. No long-term lock-in.
