Laundry & Linen Service in Campo de Ourique
Campo de Ourique is a neighbourhood of flats built between the thirties and the fifties, which means high ceilings, decent rooms, a service balcony you can just about turn around in, and very often no lift. It is a family district and a district of long-standing residents, and our work here is almost entirely domestic: the weekly bed linen and towels, and the heavy textiles that have been waiting in a wardrobe for someone to deal with them. We collect at the door, whatever floor that door is on, and bring everything back washed, dried through, ironed and folded, on the rhythm that suits the household.

About our service in Campo de Ourique
Nobody here is short of a washing machine. What people are short of is space to dry and the will to iron a double duvet cover on a Sunday. A flat off the Rua Ferreira Borges with a narrow marquise can dry a couple of shirts comfortably and a set of king-size sheets not at all, and in winter the sheets end up on a rack across the corridor for days. A regular collection replaces that: sheets, pillowcases, duvet covers and towels leave in a bag and come back pressed, folded and ready for the cupboard. The second job is the one people put off. Winter duvets, wool blankets, quilted bedspreads, mattress and pillow protectors, and the long curtains from the front rooms that catch dust off the street. These are the items that a domestic drum cannot fit or cannot rinse properly, and they are also impossible to dry indoors, which is why they can go years untouched. They go to the workshop, are washed on a programme matched to the fabric and weight, and come back folded rather than as something you now have to hang somewhere. The stairs are part of the service and not an obstacle to it. A building near the Prazeres cemetery with four floors and no lift is the ordinary case, and we come up for the bags rather than asking anyone to bring a duvet down. That matters for the older residents who make up a good share of the round, and for the families who set the account up for a parent living alone nearby. Hard mains water in Lisbon is the reason towels here feel stiffer than they used to and white bed linen has drifted towards grey. Correct dosing, a full rinse and workshop drying recover much of it; cotton that has simply worn thin will not come back, and we say so rather than keep treating it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about laundry and linen in Campo de Ourique:
There is no lift in my building. Who carries the linen up and down?
We do, and that is the whole point of a door service in a neighbourhood built before lifts. The bags are taken from your flat and the clean linen is returned to the same flat, whatever the number of flights. Mention the floor when the account is opened so the round can be planned around it, since it affects our scheduling and not whether we come.
Can I send only the big items and keep doing the everyday wash myself?
Of course, and plenty of people here do exactly that. The duvet at the end of winter, the bedspread before visitors arrive, the curtains once a year. There is no obligation to hand over the weekly laundry as well, and the quote is worked out from what you actually send, the volume and whether it needs ironing.
Do you handle laundry for an older relative who cannot manage it?
Yes, and it is a regular arrangement in this neighbourhood. We agree a fixed day, collect at the door and return the linen folded and ready to be put away, without anyone having to lift a wet load or climb on a chair to hang it. Family members frequently organise it from another part of the city or from abroad.
