im comparing costs of laundry around different countries and quality of services rendered; and the most expensive and least effective service was in nepal.
they charge $1.50 per kilo ( 48 hours ) or $2.50 ( 24 hours ) and $3.50 ( express 7 hours ) and its not even machine washed; plus they don't iron the clothes and hand them back in the same plastic bag in which they were brought. several times i had to argue with the laundries that they must package the clothes in a new and clean plastic bag.
if you compare the same service to Thailand or even Cambodia, the price is $1.50 per kilo but it is indeed machine washed, pressed and folded, sprinkled with perfumed water, packaged in new plastic bags and you also get a "thank you sir, please come again" when picking up the laundry.
in nepal when i asked them why my clothes weren't pressed and just stuffed in the same plastic bag they were brought in; the answer was
"you must pay more!!!"
so how can you get the best laundry service in nepal ?
and why is it so expensive compared to other less developed countries ?
