Laundry Service in Ahmedabad
27th Jun 2026
South Ahmedabad has changed quietly but completely over the last decade. What used to be the outer edge of the city is now one of its most active residential belts. Gated societies line the roads between Shela and Bopal. Families from across Gujarat have settled here. Working professionals commuting to SG Highway, SP Ring Road, and beyond have made this corridor their home.
And with that growth has come a very simple, everyday problem. Who takes care of the laundry?
Not just the everyday cotton and linen, but the silk pieces from the last wedding, the woollen blazer that only comes out for presentations, the embroidered lehenga sitting in the wardrobe since Navratri. The kind of clothing that Indian families invest in but often do not know how to care for at home.
The Laundry Post is a premium laundry and dry cleaning service that started right here, in Shela, Ahmedabad. This is home territory. The demand seen across Shela and Bopal is exactly why The Laundry Post is now expanding across Ahmedabad. This article is for residents across Shela, Bopal, South Bopal, Ambli, Ghuma, and the wider South Ahmedabad belt who are looking for professional garment care they can actually rely on.
This part of the city has a unique combination of lifestyle demands. Dual-income households where both partners work full time. Joint families with large volumes of mixed clothing. Students in PG accommodations near Bopal and South Bopal who brought good clothes from home and have no reliable way to care for them.
Add to that the typical Gujarati wardrobe. It is rarely just everyday casual wear. Most families here own silk sarees, festive chaniya cholis, embroidered kurtas for occasions, formal suits for business meetings, and school uniforms and sports kits for children on top of everything else. During Navratri, wedding season, and Diwali, pickup volumes in this corridor jump significantly and those are exactly the pieces that need professional care most.
Managing all of that at home, carefully, every week, without damage, is genuinely difficult. A professional laundry and dry cleaning service is not a luxury here. For most households, it is simply the practical choice.
The Laundry Post provides a full range of garment care services with doorstep pickup and delivery across this area:
Dry Cleaning: For silk sarees, woollen suits, blazers, velvet pieces, heavily embroidered outfits, and anything that says "dry clean only." A solvent-based process that cleans without water, preserving the shape, colour, and finish of delicate garments.
Wash and Fold: Professionally handled washing for everyday garments, using the right water temperature, fabric-appropriate detergents, and a finishing process that home machines cannot replicate.
Steam Ironing: Crisp, properly finished clothes returned on hangers where needed. Especially useful for office formals and formal wear that need a professional press.
Shoe Cleaning: Professional shoe cleaning service for leather shoes, canvas shoes, sneakers, and formal footwear. Extends the life of good-quality shoes significantly.
Bag Cleaning: For leather bags, handbags, fabric bags, and accessories that need professional attention rather than a damp cloth at home.
Household Laundry: Curtains, bedsheets, pillow covers, blankets, and other household textiles handled with the right process for each material.
The Laundry Post's doorstep pickup and delivery currently covers:

The range of people who use The Laundry Post in South Ahmedabad is wider than most people expect.
Working professionals use it for office formals, blazers, and dress shirts that need consistent professional finishing. A suit that comes back pressed and ready to wear is one less thing to think about before an early meeting.
Families use it for everything from daily laundry to festive occasion pieces. Festival seasons in Gujarat bring out silk, embroidery, and mirror work that cannot safely go into a home washing machine. Sending those pieces to a professional service before and after wearing them protects the investment.
Students living in PG accommodations around Bopal often bring formal clothes from home for internships, placements, and college functions. Without access to the right equipment or experience, home washing a blazer or formal kurta can cause irreversible damage. A pickup and delivery service removes that risk entirely.
Businesses in the area, including restaurants, salons, clinics, and hospitality establishments, need regular professional cleaning for staff uniforms and linen. A scheduled service keeps that consistent without requiring the time or infrastructure to manage it in-house.
Shela was the starting point. The plan has always been to grow across Ahmedabad and beyond.
Right now, large parts of Ahmedabad do not yet have access to The Laundry Post. Areas like Satellite, Prahlad Nagar, Thaltej, Navrangpura, Naranpura, Maninagar, Chandkheda, Gota, and New Ranip have growing residential populations with the same garment care needs as South Ahmedabad but a The Laundry Post outlet is not yet nearby for most of those residents.This is where the franchise opportunity becomes relevant.
If you live or work in an area of Ahmedabad that does not yet have a premium laundry service, you can bring The Laundry Post to your neighbourhood. The franchise model is designed to be accessible and comes with full operational, training, and marketing support from the parent brand.
The laundry and garment care industry in India is growing steadily as more households move toward outsourcing time-intensive domestic tasks. A well-branded, professionally run laundry service in an underserved residential area has a straightforward path to becoming the go-to service for that community.
Local laundry options have existed in South Ahmedabad for years. So why would a household choose a premium service instead?
The difference shows up most clearly with delicate and valuable garments. A local dhobi or basic laundry service applies a standard wash to everything. That works for everyday cotton. It does not work for silk, velvet, embroidered pieces, or structured formal wear. The wrong process on the wrong fabric causes colour loss, shrinkage, distortion, or embellishment damage that cannot be reversed.
A premium service like The Laundry Post begins with fabric identification. Each garment is assessed before a cleaning method is chosen. The process is then matched to the material and construction of the specific piece. This is what protects the garment rather than just cleaning it.
The other difference is accountability. With a professional service, there is a documented process, a record of what was received, and a clear standard that each item is held to before being returned. That accountability matters when the item in question is an expensive saree, a tailored suit, or a designer piece.
