Old City

Rinse offers the most convenient laundry service for residents of Old City.

Old City or Old Oakland is an historic section of Downtown Oakland. While the Pacific Railroad was being constructed in the 1860's, Old City functioned as the original downtown. Today, the neighborhood is undergoing a bit of a reconnaissance as many apartments and shops are popping up in the area.

Wash & Fold

Wash & Fold process

We offer laundry pickup and laundry drop off services. Get your laundry returned to you washed and crisply folded - we even pair your socks!

Before cleaning, we’ll check your pockets for loose items, separate lights and darks, and never wash or dry your items with anyone else’s. We wash with cold water and dry on medium heat before neatly folding each item.

You can even set your cleaning preferences, like detergent type and fabric softener, from your account.

What your neighbors in and around Old City say

  • I love your model of pickup/delivery and the people delivering are always so accommodating. Plus, your quick response to my questions was fantastic. Rinse is great at communicating.

    Ann S.

    in San Francisco

  • The flexibility of pick up and drop off is amazing, and I have had a positive experience with your drivers being communicative and punctual. We have a laundry and dry cleaning service at work, but I hate the idea of trekking home on a bus with my pile of clothes. Rinse takes care of the most annoying aspects of laundry and dry cleaning!

    Yekaterina R.

    in San Francisco

  • Convenience and customer service. Your drivers are amazing with communication. So impressed by the caliber of employee you've been able to maintain.

    Niki H.

    in San Francisco

  • Your ability to be seamlessly responsive has been GREAT. The experience is natural and organic, letting me never have to open the app and just text whatever i need done. The ability to let you guys pick up stuff from my door, and then baking that into the app, was a great feature addition.

    Ali F.

    in San Francisco

  • The fabric softener you all started using is great. But honestly, just getting my clothes folded and ready to go is worth it to me. Also pairing the socks like you did last time is awesome.

    Jeff D.

    in San Francisco

  • I work really long and exhaustive hours. I often come home too late to take to the wash & fold near my house (which I don't like using anyway) or I spend hours at the laundry mat on the weekends if I'm not away. This leaves a really small window of time to do laundry. I'm a laundry snob and really enjoy doing my own laundry but it's not a possibility at this point in my life. I like that my clothes smell and feel clean when they are returned back to me. I can tell they're actually clean. And I like that they are picked up from my house when I'm home from work.

    Alexa B.

    in San Francisco

  • The people are #1, you hire extraordinarily well, congrats on that, it's not easy, but each time I tell someone about Rinse, I start out with the people, then the excellent service.

    Amando B.

    in San Bruno

  • The gentleman who started me out with Rinse picked up my dry cleaning and set me up with bags and explained how the system worked. That meant a lot to me because the concept of Rinse was such a new thing. I appreciated how he took the time to answer my questions.

    Sunila R.

    in Menlo Park

  • SUPER convenient! The pick up/drop off times are conducive to my work hours. Standard turnaround time is great. Rinse employees are also extremely friendly. A+ for convenience and A+ for customer service!

    Gloria K.

    in San Francisco

  • The best three words to describe rinse are reliable, convenient, and friendly. I have been a customer for over 3 years, and all of my pick-ups and deliveries have been on time on the day I requested. My clothes come back in great condition, and often times even better than when I had them picked up (thanks to the team for the complimentary repairs!). Every valet has been friendly, cheerful, and helpful. Customer service is quick and easy. Thank you!

    Samantha E.

  • You are the most wonderful new solution to my needs. I have 2 kids, full time job & a great husband who travels all the time. The amount of time saving, awesome quality, great reminders, great quality of work is simply awesome for me.

    Lourdes M.

    in San Francisco

  • Easy, automated, and I don't have to be home for pick ups and deliveries. My husband would say it's a good service because he doesn't have to talk to a human to use it. Ha! You can do both wash and fold (which I need on occasion) and dry cleaning.

    Kristy Q.

    in San Francisco

  • I love to throw my laundry bag out the window to save the person from having to climb my stairs when they do a pickup. I have 43 stairs so having a service to pick up and deliver my laundry is an amazing luxury!!

    Susan E.

    in San Francisco

  • Text message communication is awesome. I can just look at the messages and know whats going on without having to make calls, and the immediate response to questions rocks as well.

    Meg W.

    in Concord

  • Cheaper than most dry cleaning places in the city and dropped off to your door! What more could you ask for?!

    Preston R.

    in San Francisco

  • Valets are very amenable to leaving things in the garage if I need them to. Very responsive when I text and great customer service. I like the text message interface- that's huge.

    Christina M.

    in San Francisco

  • I love that couriers can pick up and drop off laundry at the door even when we're not home. Our schedule used to revolve around our laundry, but now we can just leave the bag out front if we won't be home.

    Ashley M.

    in Mill Valley

  • The Rinse drivers have been very pleasant and courteous. Also, you’ve made scheduling pick ups very easy and the late evening pick up/delivery suits my busy lifestyle.

    Liane F.

    in San Francisco

  • Convenient app to schedule pickups and excellent customer service. Super flexible and friendly concierge/delivery drivers who always accommodate me if I need them to come at a later time or at the end of their route.

    Caryn L.

    in San Francisco

  • Simplicity, ease of use, availability, customer service. Also the careful consideration of my clothes is amazing. The subtle bits of clothing repair when I'm missing a button or a string is out of place is what separates Rinse from the rest. You guys have my loyalty forever.
