    Default Self service laundry in Maun

    Is there a self service or paid laundry in Maun ?

    After 9 days in the bush SWMBO wants to wash clothes before carrying on to Naxi and Makgadikgadi Pans

    We can fix anything, but the impossible requires just a little more time.

    Where are you staying in Maun Glen? most places can do laundry for you, even if you're camping, for a small fee

    Taralee, I have the same question. I am worried that the lodge's turn-around will not be quick enough as we are spending one night only at a lodge.

    Hi Taralee,

    We will be staying 1 night at Thamalakane lodge before travelling onwards.

    Thamalakane has nothing about laundry services on the website.

    So maybe we are in the sameboat as Subok ?

    Thanks

    Otherwise, the ladies at OKAVANGO RIVER LODGE, just down the road can do laundry for you - just ask at the bar - they charge P40 to P50 for this service provided they are not too busy. You don't have to be staying there.

    I would also need laundry in Maun. Could you tell me about your experiences? What did you end up doing last year?

    We used Ever Dry Laundry because our campsite did not offer it. It's here: , -20.002716, 23.413955. Quick turnaround, not the cheapest. There are a few other laundry services on google. I don't think I've ever seen self service laundry in our travels around there.

    Thank you. Our challenge is that we are going to arrive on a Saturday and leaving for the delta on Sunday. But they charge per kilo and not per piece?

    I contacted Nakie, who was mentioned in this post 10 years ago. She is still doing laundry.
