What Time Do Laundromats Close? Late-Night Laundry in New York City
Closing times vary by location, but plenty of laundromats stay open into the evening. In New York City, 19 of the 42 laundromats with posted hours in our directory stay open until 10 PM or later on at least one day, and 2 are open 24 hours.
How we counted
Source: the Laundromats Near You New York City listings (43 laundromats, 42 with posted hours), counted on October 16, 2026. A laundromat counts as open until 10 PM or later if at least one day closes at 10:00 PM or later or runs past midnight. It counts as 24 hours if every listed day reads Open 24 hours. Posted hours can change, so confirm with the business before you go.
Typical closing times in our NYC listings
We looked at the latest closing time each NYC laundromat posts across the week. Here is how the 42 laundromats with posted hours break down:
- 6 PM to 7 PM: 9 laundromats
- 8 PM to 9:30 PM: 12 laundromats
- 10 PM: 10 laundromats
- 11 PM: 6 laundromats
- Midnight or later, including 24 hours: 5 laundromats
So the most common latest closing time is 10 PM, and exactly half (21 of 42) close before then. If you need to wash after work, a 10 PM or 11 PM laundromat is usually a realistic target. If you need laundry after midnight, your options are much narrower.

How to check a laundromat's hours before you go
- Check the listing for the exact day. Hours often differ between weekdays and weekends, so read the line for the day you plan to visit.
- Call ahead. A quick call is the most reliable way to confirm closing time, especially late at night.
- Ask about the last wash time. Some laundromats stop starting new loads before they close. Knowing the cutoff helps you avoid a half-finished load.
- Watch holidays. Holiday hours can differ from regular hours. Our holiday hours guide covers what to expect.
Tips for late-night laundry
- Arrive with enough time for a full wash and dry cycle before closing.
- Sort and pre-treat clothes at home so you spend less time at the machines.
- Stay with your laundry or keep your phone timer set so you are back when cycles end.
- If you can only go after midnight, check the 24-hour options first. Our 24-hour laundromats guide explains what to look for.
