Residents should follow the instructions below. Residents can also check machine availability in advance using the LaundryView website.
New Step in Laundry Process
Please note that tapping your BuzzCard is now required. Look for signage in your laundry room with each step for starting machines (also listed below). Residents will see a $.01* charge appear on screen when activating each machine - this charge goes to an ever-renewing laundry funds account each resident receives, not a resident's BuzzCard Funds. This laundry fund loads onto a resident's BuzzCard automatically 24 hours after checking into their room for the term.
