• Solid polyester (nylon-like): the workhorse for carrying, storing, and delivering laundry. Lightweight, tear-resistant, and easy to print on.
• Mesh: the bag goes into the washer and dryer with the laundry inside of it, keeping one customer's or resident's items together. Mesh also breathes, which keeps damp gear from turning musty.
• Canvas (cotton/polyester): a heavier bag with a cloth feel and carry strap, good for gifts and premium branded bags.

To compare sizes and how much each holds, see our solid polyester laundry bag size guide and our mesh laundry bag size guide.

Our solid polyester bags come in up to 19 colors, depending on size. Royal blue, navy blue, black and dark green are our most often ordered colors, but many customers also like lighter colors such as teal, orange, and yellow. Fluorescent green and hot pink are always popular for standing out. We offer such a wide range of colors so that laundromats and cleaners can re-sell and offer a variety to their customers, and for customers who color code: assign a color to each delivery route, customer type, floor, or wing so bags are sorted at a glance.

Yes, we do manufacture custom sizes and colors. The minimum quantity is 800 bags and the lead time is 10-12 weeks. Call 888-388-5862 with the size and quantity you need for a quote.

The 30" x 40" is the size laundromats sell and print most often; it holds a family's laundry for one or two loads. Many shops also stock the 24" x 36" as a smaller option, and the 22" x 28" for light loads. If you charge by weight, offering all three gives customers an easy way to choose.

Our solid polyester laundry bag size guide shows each size next to a person for scale.

Yes, custom printed bags with your business name, logo and other information are a great way to market your business. Every customer carrying your bag advertises your business free of charge, and the bag keeps advertising every time it's reused.

Facilities color-code solid bags by floor or wing, or give each resident a mesh bag with a name patch for personal laundry, and print the facility name on bags so they come back. See our healthcare laundry bags.

Students order all three sizes, our 22" x 28", 24" x 36" and for those who tend to let the laundry accumulate before finally doing it (or bringing home to mom) our 30x40 inch bag. Our carry-strap bags go over the shoulder, which helps for carrying long distance and up and down the stairs.

Yes. From pee wee league to high school and college to professional sports, teams order our solid polyester bags to transport laundry and equipment, and our mesh bags to wash uniforms and keep them separated.
