Laundromats in NZ Ports

[didiaust]

Looking for advice as to easy to access laundromats in the following ports.

Picton, Wellington, Napier, Tauranga or Auckland.

 

Are there any close by to where ship docks in any of the above places.

 

Your help appreciated

Saw one in Port Chalmers, didn't notice one in Picton or Wellington, but Wellington must have one somewhere, but probably in the suburbs I suspect.

 

Fortunately being in Princess we didn't need one.

There was a Laundromat nearby (within 3 blocks) in Auckland. Google will be your friend.:D

Closest one to the Cruise Terminal in Wellington would be 24 Elizabeth St off Kent Terrace in Courtenay Place and on bus route to Eastern suburbs

I just did a quick google for "laundromat Tauranga", and a couple came up, but they do also say commercial laundry. Might be worth a google check and quick email to confirm open hours and processing times.

In Tauranga I think this one would be the closest: http://yellow.co.nz/y/mount-maunganui-laundry

We did our washing in Port Chalmers/Dunedin. Just up the Main Street of Port Chalmers on the right hand side half way up. The dairy (convenience store) a couple of shops down sell $1 washing sachet. $3 per load in the washing machine and $4 per load for the dryer. We had hired a car that day, and then went off and explored the countryside

Onyx Laundry in Mount Manganui - walking distance from the port and you can drop off your laundry while you sight see.  Coin operated as well.

63a/169 Mauganui road.

Welcome to Cruise critic. Thanks for reviving a 4 year old thread, I hope you get some takers.

On our last cruise my daughter did washing at the laundry mat at Napier. I caught up on ours at a laundry mat in Dunedin.

They were both easy to find

Laundromat in PICTON a short  walk from where the bus drops you off. You will pass it on the way in to town.

The laundry on the ship is much closer and they actually take it there from your cabin and return it again for you.

We treat our port days as opportunities to explore & learn, and work on the basis that we may never be there again - ever. I cannot imagine that we would spend time doing laundry during the limited time we have in each port.

 

I guess if there was a drop-off and pickup laundry that would be much cheaper than on the ship, perhaps we could do that, but what if it's all-aboard and the clothes are not done?? Nah, second thoughts, just give the laundry bag to Stewart and get the laundry done on-board.

👍 I suggest you wash your underwear each night in the cabin, then send your other washing out to the ship's laundry. Spend your days ashore exploring NZ rather than the inside of a laundry. 😊

Agreed. Who wants to spend hours in a laundromat while on holidays.

Yes a hole in one. Some one has it right.
