I lived in Warren Towers my freshmen year. The large laundry center is located on the third floor (same level as dining hall) and has 20+ washers and dryers. I lived in A Tower and we also had a smaller laundry room on the fifth floor with ~5 washers and dryers. I never had to wait for one on the fifth floor but I did laundry at off peak times during the school week and avoided the weekend rush. Some believed the machines dry better and faster at the larger laundry room as they are commercial grade with large glass windows. The washers are identical IIRC.

Last I checked its a $1.50 to wash and $1.50 to dry payable by cash or Terrier card. I got an email several days ago about new Terrier cards being issued (what a great use of our tuition money lol!) so I’m not sure if that will change.

As for handwashing I would not advise doing so in the communal bathrooms at WT. There really isn’t a place to hang your items to try aside from your mini closet/wardrobe. Hope this helps.
