Please read this section and entire application before asking questions answered here.

We at Duck River Laundry need one part-time cleaner/housekeeper/customer service/wash and fold/full-service employee for about 17 hours per week. This employee will be offered cover hours periodically as others need off, and there may be opportunity for expanded hours in the future.

At this stage we are simply meeting candidates and training. Training is paid, but hiring on is not guaranteed. Training pay is at $11, then $12 after probationary period, with opportunities for raise and discretionary bonuses over time with consistent dependability, exceptional effort, and team-oriented behaviors.

Housekeeping duties keeping the entire property clean, vacuuming lint out of commercial dryers, cleaning gunk out of washer seals, cleaning bathrooms, floors, changing trash bins, washers/dryers, windows, walls, etc. (there is a daily checklist) and completing wash/dry/fold duties as needed. The work is not "hard" but requires steady effort to keep up with messes, to learn the art of the wash/fold dropoff, and a good attitude with customers.

Employees will also be expected to smile, behave professionally, learn how the machines work, and be willing to help any customer who asks or looks like they may need help, without hassling them. Employees must know how to remain disciplined when alone and be able to function calmly with busy surroundings and difficult customers from time to time. Employees must also work well with their teammates, be respectful to their manager(s), and communicate well.

Raises are dependent on the employee’s value to the company. Valuable traits include: dependability/showing up, getting the duties done, good communication skills, people skills, attention to detail, willingness to accept continual constructive criticism, resisting the urge to waste time on devices or other nonproductive distractions, and wearing unoffensive/decent attire appropriate for housekeeping/cleaning jobs where employees are highly visible by customers. Employees are expected to keep sharing personal details to a minimum and contribute to a happy, enjoyable work environment for coworkers.

We are a small business that enjoys pleasing our customers and we enjoy working together as a team to have the best laundromat our customers have ever visited.
