3       Laundry Service Policy

3.1     Our Terms and Conditions

Rest assured; your satisfaction is our priority. In fact, we treat your laundry as if it were our own, however we still need to agree to some rules to ensure that there are no misunderstandings about Nestor’s Laundry Service (referred to as “we,” “us,” “our”, or “Nestor’s Laundry Service”) or your obligations and responsibilities. By using our service, you acknowledge and accept the following Terms and Conditions.

3.2     Suitability for Laundering

By using our service, you agree that your clothes are suitable to be washed in water, on a normal cycle, and dried using heat in a tumble dryer. We cannot be responsible for any damage to clothing that is not suitable for this standard laundering process.

3.3     Laundry Quota:

Here’s the amount of Complimentary Laundry Items that Each Members can avail. Nestor will wash & iron the clothing items & return as per schedule (Pickup on call is available) –

Premium Single Room (PSR)10 Pieces of Clothes per Week

Classic Single Room (CSR) – 10 Pieces of Clothes per Week

Budget Single Room (BSR) 8 Pieces of Clothes per Week

Classic Double Room (CDR)6 Pieces of Clothes per Week

Standard Double Room (SDR) 6 Pieces of Clothes per Week

3.4     Damaged Laundry

We will do everything we can to avoid damaging your laundry. Unfortunately, there are limitations to what we can do. For example, we don’t have time to check your pockets to see if you have left anything in them. Therefore, we can’t be held responsible if something left in your laundry (like nail polish, chewing gum, or a pen) causes any damage. Similarly, if you call and tell us that you left your favorite ring, or anything else, in your pocket, we can’t guarantee that we will find or be able to return it. But if found will be duly returned to you.

It is not possible for us to inspect every item for damage or its prior condition upon receiving it. We wash many articles of clothing that are damaged in some form or another for members every day. You the member therefore agree to not hold us liable for any damages based on the condition of clothing after we deliver it back to you, as a condition of using our services. If you do not accept these terms in full, then you can cancel your order without penalty up to one hour prior to your pick-up time. After you have us pick-up your laundry, you agree to accept these terms in full and agree to not hold us liable for any damages. We still want to be sure there isn’t something we did to cause any damage so if you find something you didn’t recognize prior, we need to hear from you within 24 Hours of delivery in order for us to investigate it promptly. We reserve the right, at our own discretion, to reimburse someone for up to 10 times the cost of what we charged to wash a particular article. If we choose to do this, you will need to be able to provide proof of purchase with a written copy of the receipt.

All laundering processes, regardless of how gentle, cause normal wear and tear on clothing. As a result, we cannot be responsible for any wear and tear of laundry, including loss of buttons, fading, fatiguing, holes, or abrasions. Similarly, we reserve the right to decline cleaning any piece of laundry if we think it will lead to trouble.


Cleaning and drying laundry also creates other risks. As stated earlier, we do not individually examine every garment prior to placing it in the laundry. Therefore, if something is “dry-clean only,” or otherwise unsuitable for common washing and drying techniques, please do not include it in the laundry you give to us.

We wash all items together as our standard procedure. If you prefer, and notify us ahead of time, we can wash items separately. It is preferred you separate before dropping your clothes off however we can also do the separation for you. Along the same lines, we can’t be held responsible for the re-disposition of colors (aka bleeding) or dimensional changes (aka shrinking or stretching)

3.5 Stain Removal

We do NOT offer stain removal services however we do offer a “Color Safe” bleach alternative that is made for tough stains, and we can add that if requested into your order. Many common stains do come out during our normal washing however we make no claims or guarantees that we will be able to remove any of them as we only provide basic washing and drying services.

3.6     Lost Laundry

We would love to be able to inventory every piece of laundry you give us. Unfortunately, it is cost-prohibitive for us to do so. As a result, we can’t be held responsible for any lost laundry; we simply have no efficient way of verifying that we actually received any particular piece of laundry in the first place. Rest assured though; we carefully track your clothes. For instance, we tag your clothes with your sales slip, and your clothes are never lost in our facility unless they’re inside a machine, on the folding table with us present, or locked in our office. If you do believe you are missing something from your delivery, please notify us within 24 hours of receiving your clean clothes back — we are much more likely to find misplaced laundry if it is reported early. You agree that by using our services that if you are not home during delivery, that it is OK for us to leave your order by the front door. You further agree that any loss, stolen, or damaged laundry as a result of the pick-up or delivery process is not our fault and you agree that you accept full responsibility for your laundry during these times.

3.7     Minimum Fee (Per Piece Washing)

Excessive of the Quota

  • Per piece 20TK for Washing & Ironing and 5 TK for Ironing

We do have a minimum weight limit for “drop off” laundry (you drop it off at our store) of 5.5 Kgs. If you have less than 5.5 Kgs., we’re happy to wash your clothes but you will be charged for the minimal 5.5 Kgs. fee. With our “Free Pick Up and Delivery Service,” we have a minimum 100 order amount per visit. If you cancel your order after we have already picked up your laundry you will still be charged this minimum 100 fee to cover the cost of returning the laundry to you without servicing, it. Please take the time to weigh your clothes ahead of time so that you know what to expect regarding cost before placing an order and agreeing to both these terms/conditions as well as our pricing.

3.8     Pick-up and Delivery Scheduling

Nestor provides pick-up and delivery service between Merul Badda, Gudara Ghat, Titas Road, Madhya Badda Link Road, and every Area (New Areas are being added) in between these two. We will do our best to pick-up your laundry at the agreed upon time however sometimes things beyond our control (think Badda Link Road’s traffic) can cause delays. We don’t want to be late, however we can’t be held accountable if we are late for unforeseen circumstances. Similarly, we hope that you will strive to be on-time for our pick-ups and deliveries. If you do miss a pick-up or delivery, we will try to coordinate an alternate time as soon as possible.

A No Show is when we show up to your door, but you and your laundry aren’t around. In the case of a No Show, we reserve the right to charge a No-Show fee (100 Conditional). Keep in mind, there’s no fee if you cancel or reschedule 4 hours before the start of your pick-up or delivery time.

3.9     Unattended Pick-up and Delivery

If you request that we leave your laundry unattended (e.g., on your door, in a hallway) or with a third party (e.g., with your roommate), we are not responsible for your laundry before we have picked it up or after we have dropped it off. You also agree that our records of pick-up and drop-off times are true and exact.

3.10   Allergies

We offer and use “All Free and Clear” detergent for members with sensitive skin. However, we do wash clothes in shared washing machines where other detergents may have been used, and it is possible that lesser amounts of other detergents, which may not be hypoallergenic, may not be completely rinsed out of these washing machines.

 

 

4      Important Details

4.1 Reporting a complain/problem

In case of any complains and problems feel free to contact our Community Manager at 01905411800. If the problem persists and hasn’t been solved you can contact the Operations Team by the given QR Code or Complain letter box. Reporting the problem can only be made by you from the QR Code provided in every apartment or by following the link https://forms.gle/XLqzPygSTfkdVVua9 , where you must fill the form and successfully submit the requested information on the Complain form. Once the form is submitted the Operation Team of Nestor will work on the solution within 24 hours, if to solve the problem within the time period mentioned is not possible the Operations team will be in contact with you regarding the solutions.

4.2 Common Spaces & Common Kitchen

All members are requested to allow room for other people to use Community Spaces, The Common Kitchen Space & other common services.

4.2.1 Don’t be messy

When you’re coliving, you’re sharing a whole house with other people, so you have to be considerate. You don’t necessarily have to be a neat freak, but you should certainly be mindful of the messes you make and be willing to clean up after yourself.

If you’re coliving in a shared room, there’s a little extra cleaning for you to do, because you’ll have to be mindful of your bedroom as well as the common areas. Don’t leave your stuff all over the place. Instead, keep things neatly organized near your bed or utilize available closet space and drawers – they’re there for a reason! Keeping your own area tidy will set an example for your roommates to do the same.

4.2.2 Phone Usage

There are a couple different aspects to this, not just avoiding talking on the phone loudly in common area. Some examples include:

 

  • Call and notification sounds – loud ringers or text message alert sounds can be really distracting to others who are working or sleeping. Avoid putting your ringer on the highest volume, and if you’re in the coworking space, put your text messages onto silent or vibrate so everyone doesn’t get distracted every time a “ding” goes off.
  • Alarms – This one’s big for shared rooms, especially. There are few things worse than hearing that dreaded iPhone alarm sound over and over when you’re trying to sleep. If you’re used to hitting snooze 5 times at home, don’t continue that habit when you’re coliving. One and done! Turn that alarm off ASAP if there’s another person (or multiple people) in your shared room still sleeping.
  • Taking calls – If you’re taking a call, whether it’s business or personal, head outside so you don’t distract others who are trying to work or sleep.

5.2 Bathroom Etiquette

Showing respect and consideration in terms of both manners and hygiene matter in a common bathroom as following these rules can help improve the coliving experience

5.2.1 Patience is polite

When you really need to go, but all the bathrooms are occupied. We’re all trying our best to be quick with answering nature’s call but knocking on a door incessantly won’t help anyone finish faster. Instead, knock just once, and more often than not, the person inside will sense your urgency and call out to you that they’ll be just a minute. If that doesn’t work, then try to find another bathroom on a different floor.

5.2.2 But don’t test people’s patience

Washroom etiquette entails that you be quick with conducting your business. Try to be in and out quickly, so as to not keep anyone else waiting unnecessarily. And though we all love scrolling mindlessly to pass the time on the porcelain throne, it’s advised that you leave it at your desk to avoid getting sucked into the virtual vortex in the first place.

5.2.3 Respect people’s privacy

A bathroom is the most private space you let yourself be vulnerable in daily. No one expects that they’ll have someone peep in on them from over or under the bathroom door. Simply knocking or calling out to the person inside is sufficient if you need to get a message across.

5.2.4 Sanitation and safety

It should be just as much of an unwritten rule that people clean up after themselves properly and with consideration for the next person who will be using the bathroom facilities.

5.2.5 Flushing

It can be a queasy experience to walk into a bathroom and discover that the previous user didn’t flush. So don’t be that person – always flush after using the toilet, and flush twice if you really need to. It’s true that you may be unlucky enough to encounter some common plumbing problems, which is why the flush doesn’t function properly. But in such a case, alert the cleaning staff immediately, and try to stick a note on the door to alert others that the cubicle in question is under maintenance.

5.2.6 Wash your hands

Washing your hands is basic office washroom etiquette, because when you touch contaminated surfaces like the toilet seat, flush, and even the door handles, you come into contact with bacteria that could cause infection and disease. And as you interact with others through the day, you would effectively spread the same germs to others. Wash your hands after using the loo with soap to lower risks of infection around the house.
