ERGO NEXT specializes in business insurance for laundromats

Laundromat insurance typically includes several types of policies to help protect you, your business and your employees from different types of business risks. Your coverage may include:

General Liability

General Liability insurance for laundromats

Protection for the costs of damage to other people's property and injuries to non-employees

General liability insurance could help with financial protection if someone other than an employee is injured at your laundromat, or if you or your employees accidentally damage someone else's property. For example, it may help if a customer slips on a wet floor and asks you to pay their medical bills, depending on the policy.

General Liability can help you pay for:

Legal fees after a covered claim
Damage to someone else's property
Medical payments if someone is injured at your laundromat
Workers’ Compensation

Workers’ Compensation

Required in most states to help cover the costs of employee work-related illnesses or injuries

Workers' comp insurance could help pay for medical expenses and lost wages after employee work-related injuries — and it's required in almost every state if you have employees. This can be important for laundromats, where employees may lift heavy bags, bend to load washers and dryers, or walk on wet floors.

Workers’ Compensation can help you pay for:

Medical expenses and permanent injury
Lost wages and rehabilitation costs
Employer's liability in the event of legal action against you
Commercial Property

Commercial Property insurance

Protect your building, equipment and other business property

Commercial property insurance could help protect the business space you rent or own to run your laundromat, as well as the contents of your business. This could include washers, dryers, tables, payment kiosks, vending machines, POS systems and other business property. It may also help cover equipment breakdowns (an optional add-on) and replace lost income if you have to temporarily close your store for repairs after an event like a fire, burglary or storm damage.

Commercial Property can help you pay for:

Damage from fire and windstorms
Broken and damaged property from theft and vandalism
Business interruption insurance
Business Owner’s Policy

Business Owner’s Policy

Financial coverage for customer injuries and property damage

BOP insurance combines commercial general liability insurance and commercial property insurance into a single policy at a price that’s often more affordable than buying them separately.

Business Owner’s Policy can help you pay for:

Customer injuries (bodily injury)
Property damage
Business income interruption
Equipment breakdown coverage (an optional add-on)

How much does laundromat insurance cost?

Laundromat insurance can be more affordable than you might think. Premiums depend on several factors, including:

  • The size and type of your laundromat.
  • The services you offer, such as self-service laundry, wash-and-fold or pickup and delivery.
  • Your business location.
  • Your number of employees.
  • Annual revenue.
  • The policy limits and deductible you choose.
  • Your insurance claims history.

How can laundromat insurance help your business?

Laundromat insurance could help your business to:

  • Rent a commercial space. Landlords often require business insurance before you can rent a commercial building space.
  • Hire employees. Most states require workers’ comp insurance for small businesses with employees.
  • Protect your laundromat, inventory and equipment. Property insurance may help cover washers, dryers, folding tables, payment kiosks, POS systems, flooring, lighting and other business property if it’s damaged by a covered event like a fire, theft, vandalism or some types of water damage.
  • Recover from equipment breakdowns. If a washer, dryer or other essential machine breaks down, equipment breakdown coverage may help with covered costs.
  • Offer pickup and delivery services. If your business offers services like laundry pickup and delivery, commercial auto insurance could be required in your state to protect your business driving.
  • Handle liability claims. General liability insurance could help cover costs if a customer is injured at your laundromat or if your business accidentally damages someone else’s property.

Laundromat insurance FAQ

If you don’t find answers to your frequently asked questions here, our licensed, U.S.-based insurance advisors are standing by to help.

Does laundromat insurance cover washers and dryers?

Commercial property insurance could help protect coin-operated washers and dryers and other covered business property, depending on how they were damaged. Adding equipment breakdown coverage to your policy may also help with some costs.

Do I need insurance for laundry pickup and delivery services?

If you or your employees drive a car, truck, van or other vehicle for your business, such as doing pickups and deliveries, you may need commercial auto insurance. Personal auto insurance doesn't usually cover business driving.
