In a place as stunning as Wollongong, looking after the environment isn’t just a nice idea—it’s part of the lifestyle. From sunrise swims to coastal walks, we’re lucky to live surrounded by natural beauty. That’s why at North Gong Laundry Lounge, we’ve designed our space to be as eco-conscious as it is efficient.

If you’ve ever wondered how laundry fits into the sustainability picture, the answer is simple: it’s a low-effort, high-impact way to make a difference—and we’ve made it easy for you.

🌊 1. High-Efficiency Commercial Machines

Our washers and dryers are built to use less water, less energy, and less detergent than standard home machines. That means fewer resources used per load and a whole lot of efficiency packed into every wash cycle.

👉 Less waste, better clean, faster turnaround.
Great for you. Even better for the planet.

🌱 2. Eco-Friendly Detergent Options

We keep it clean—literally. Our recommended detergents are biodegradable, phosphate-free, and skin-safe, which helps reduce chemical runoff that could eventually reach our oceans and waterways.

You’re welcome to bring your own sustainable detergent too—just make sure it’s friendly to both fabric and fish.

💧 3. Cold Water Washing? Totally Supported

Hot water washing is energy-intensive, but with our machines, cold water cleans just as effectively—especially when paired with eco-conscious detergent.

So not only do you save energy, but your clothes last longer.
(Shoutout to everyone who’s ever shrunk a favourite tee—this one’s for you.)

🧺 4. Full Loads, Smarter Loads

Our machines are large enough that you can consolidate your washing into fewer, fuller loads—which saves water, electricity, and time. No more multiple small loads at home, no more overloading a tiny washer.

It’s a better way to wash. And if you’re living with roommates or mates, group washing is a vibe and an eco move.

🌿 5. Air-Dry When You Can, Use Efficient Dryers When You Can’t

We’re big fans of the sunshine-dried towel, but when time or weather isn’t on your side, our dryers get the job done quickly and efficiently—with heat settings that avoid over-drying (aka clothes damage + energy waste).

Need to dash? You’ll be in and out faster than a North Gong surf session.

♻️ Small Footprint, Big Impact

We believe sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated. It can look like choosing to wash here instead of at home, using a better detergent, or simply switching to cold water.

At North Gong Laundry Lounge, we’ve taken care of the eco side so you can just show up and wash—no extra guilt, no extra guesswork.

🌞 Do It for Your Clothes. Do It for the Gong.
