Laundromats in Newark, NJ

Newark is one of the most laundromat-accessible cities in New Jersey, with a dense network of coin laundries spread across neighborhoods like the Ironbound, the South Ward, the North Ward, and Downtown. The city's high proportion of renters — particularly in multi-family housing stock throughout the Ironbound and Vailsburg — means most residents depend on local laundromats for weekly washing. Springfield Avenue and Ferry Street are among the busiest laundromat corridors in the city. Hours run long across most Newark locations — many open as early as 6 AM and stay open until 10 or 11 PM — and wash prices typically range from $2.75–$4.00 per cycle. The Ironbound neighborhood's large Brazilian and Portuguese community has shaped a number of laundromats in that area into full-service operations with drop-off, alterations referrals, and extended hours. If you're commuting through Newark Penn Station or staying in the area short-term, several downtown locations are within a 10-minute walk. Find the full list of Newark laundromats below.
