Laundry Attendant careers include work in the hospitality, personal services and healthcare industries, in varied settings that range from hotels and cruise ships to coin-operated laundromats and hospitals. In hospitality-related positions, Laundry Attendants handle the washing of bed and dining linens, towels and personal laundry of guests. In healthcare settings, Laundry Attendants assist with the cleaning and sanitizing of bedding, hospital gowns and patient laundry. While coin-operated laundromats are often self-service, some laundromats offer fluff-and-fold services in which customers drop off batches of laundry to be washed, folded and packaged.
