Let’s be honest. Laundry day has never been anyone’s favorite. Digging for quarters, waiting around for machines to free up, wondering if someone’s taken your wet clothes out mid-cycle, it’s a hassle. However, it doesn’t have to be. Not anymore.
At Automatic Industries Inc., we’ve been in the laundry business for over five decades. That’s more than 50 years of working directly with property managers, building owners, and co-op boards across the Tri-State area. We’re not some faceless national chain. We’re local. We’re family-owned. And we’re hands-on. Our team knows the buildings, the neighborhoods, and the people who live in them. That’s why we’ve built our entire service model around making laundry easier, smarter, and more reliable for everyone involved.
We specialize in central laundry rooms for multi-dwelling buildings, such as apartments, condos, and universities. And while the machines themselves are important, what sets us apart is how we’ve modernized the entire laundry experience. That starts with our mobile laundry payment solution for both property managers and residents.
Smartphone App Laundry Payment Systems/Laundry App For Apartments
If you’ve ever used a laundry room that still runs on coins, you know the struggle. Counting coins, hoping the machine doesn’t eat them, and then realizing you forgot to bring enough for the dryer. It’s outdated. It’s frustrating. And it’s time for a change.
Our laundry app for apartment buildings replaces all of that with a simple, intuitive mobile app. Residents download the free app today from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, create an account, and add funds. No more counting coins. No more trips to the ATM. Just open the app, scan the QR code on the machine, and start your laundry cycle.
The app also lets users check machine availability before heading down to the laundry room. That means fewer unnecessary trips and less waiting around. You can even get notifications when your laundry is done, so you’re not stuck guessing when to come back. It’s a stress-free laundry experience from start to finish.
And for property managers? It’s a game-changer. App-based laundry systems offer real-time monitoring, transparent reporting, and zero capital outlay. We own the equipment. We maintain it. We handle collections. You get rent revenue from the laundry facility space, and your residents get a modern, hassle-free way to do laundry.
Why This Matters for Apartments
Shared laundry facilities are part of daily life in apartment buildings. But when they’re outdated or unreliable, they become a source of frustration. Residents complain. Machines break. And property managers end up fielding service calls they shouldn’t have to deal with.
That’s where our mobile laundry app comes in. It’s not just about convenience, it’s about creating a better experience for everyone. Residents get mobile payments, cycle completion alerts, and the ability to view machine availability in real time. Property managers get fewer complaints, and a reliable partner who responds to service calls within 24 to 48 hours.
And let’s not forget security. Removing cash from the laundry process means fewer break-ins, less vandalism, and a safer laundry room overall. That’s a win for residents and building owners alike.
What Property Managers and Owners Actually Get
If you’re a property manager, landlord, or board member, you’ve probably dealt with laundry complaints. Machines are not working. Residents are losing money. Long wait times. It’s a headache.
Our app-based laundry systems take that headache off your plate. We install and maintain the laundry machines. We handle the payment process. We respond to service calls quickly, and we pay rent for the use of your laundry facility space. That’s income for your building without any capital investment.
It’s all part of our boutique-style service model. We’re not trying to be the biggest laundry provider in the country. We’re focused on quality, responsiveness, and customer satisfaction.

What Makes Our App Different
There are a lot of laundry apps out there. Some work well. Others? Not so much. What makes ours stand out is how easy it is to use. The design is clean. The setup is quick. And the support is always available.
Residents can add funds using multiple payment options, including Apple Pay, Google Pay, a credit or debit card, or a digital wallet. They can scan codes to start machines and track laundry cycles. It’s all built into the app.
And for property managers, we offer training, signage, and onboarding support to make the transition smooth. Whether you’re switching from coin-operated machines or an older card system, we’ll walk you through every step. Our team is local, experienced, and ready to help.
Get On Board with Technology
Laundry technology is evolving fast, and our mobile payment app makes it simple for residents and managers alike. Residents can pay, start cycles, and check machine availability from their phones, no coins, no cards, no hassle.
Even as we explore advanced features like predictive maintenance and dynamic pricing, our focus remains the same: making laundry easier, more efficient, and more reliable. Automatic Industries has been the trusted choice for over 50 years. Ready to upgrade your laundry room? Contact us to request a proposal or schedule a walkthrough with our local team.
