Our Services

Why the project?

Clean clothes and bedding, we believe forms an essential part of human health and a positive growth in persons dignity. The aim of ‘Positive Spin’ is to cover the gap that currently exists in this area by providing free mobile laundry services to the homeless and disadvantaged people of Perth and surrounding areas.
In time, we hope to expand to other locations as well. We can’t change the world in a day but hope our little contribution goes a far way in exuding happiness, hygiene and humanity.

The Mobile Laundry Van

The mobile laundry van is now fully operational and remains self-contained with two washing machines and two clothes dryers. Because it is often difficult to access suitable power configurations at the venues where it is parked and serviced, the van has a generator fitted in to support its operations. Water continues to be sourced from the partnering organisation, allowing the service to run smoothly at each location.
