The laundry agency service "Shirofuwabin," operated by J&J Company Inc. (Headquarters: Hatagaya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Jun Ohashi), has expanded its service provision area to cover the entirety of Koto-ku and Sumida-ku in Tokyo.
It has also strengthened its response to tower apartments equipped with auto-locks—which were previously difficult to service—as well as vacation rentals (minpaku) and lodging businesses where turnover rates are crucial. By building a community-based delivery network, it will strengthen its role as a more convenient and accessible daily life infrastructure.
■ Addressing the Emerged Demand of "Want to Use but Cannot" via Area Expansion
"Shirofuwabin" is a service designed to solve laundry-related troubles by leaving daily laundry to professionals for those who say:
"I am too busy every day and have no time for laundry."
"Folding and ironing clothes is a hassle."
Previously, the service was limited to certain areas within Koto-ku and Sumida-ku, leading to many requests such as:
"I'm outside the area but want to use it."
"Please support tower apartments too."
Against the backdrop of an increasing number of dual-income households and a growing demand for outsourcing household chores, interest in laundry agency services is rising year by year, highlighting the need to resolve area-based challenges where people "want to use the service but can't."
■ Towards a Service System Addressing Urban Living Environments and Business Needs
With this area expansion, an overhaul and reinforcement of delivery operations have made it possible to cover all of Koto-ku and Sumida-ku.
It now addresses urban-specific living environments and business needs, such as:
- Tower apartments with auto-locks and security restrictions.
- Vacation rentals and lodging facilities requiring efficient linen management.
This realizes a service expansion that anticipates utilization not only for residential purposes but also for business operations.
■ Key Points of the Service Update
In this update, the service has been enhanced in terms of both convenience and coverage range, alongside the area expansion.
- Covers all of Koto-ku and Sumida-ku
Pickup and delivery are now possible anywhere within both wards, from the bay area to the downtown areas. The service is now available in areas that were previously inaccessible.
- Supports Tower Apartments and Minpaku
For tower apartments, flexible pickup and delivery complying with building rules, such as via concierges or delivery lockers, are possible.
For vacation rental operators, it efficiently finishes large amounts of towels and sheets using professional processes, supporting the reduction of operational burdens.
- Cost-Effective Plan Pricing and Quality
Along with the area expansion, low prices have been achieved in Koto-ku and Sumida-ku through "bag exchange delivery" (delivering the previous laundry during the next pickup). Since it is an "all-you-can-stuff in a dedicated bag" system for the number of uses in your plan, you can use it without worrying about the number of laundry items. It thoroughly ensures a fluffy finish using commercial-grade equipment and hand-folding by specialized teams, providing quality suitable for daily use.
- Selectable Delivery Options to Suit Your Needs
To fit busy daily lives, as a further improvement in convenience, delivery on the next business day after pickup is available for an additional shipping fee of 500 yen (excluding tax), responding to urgent needs such as "I really need it delivered fast."
* As a general rule, usage is based on "exchange delivery" (delivering the previous batch at the next pickup).
* The additional shipping fee is incurred per delivery. Please inquire for details when using the service.
