EWING, N.J. — On average, college students spend 64 hours a year doing laundry – time that could be better spent studying or enjoying all that campus life has to offer. Recognizing the opportunity for a more convenient, high-quality laundry solution Arm & Hammer and OxiClean  laundry brands of Church & Dwight Co., Inc. have teamed up with The Laundry Chute, an innovative 24/7 collegiate peer-to-peer laundry ecosystem. The Laundry Chute, powered by Arm & Hammer and OxiClean, provides a cutting-edge full-service laundry solution to on-campus as well as off-campus students, that lightens the load for both college students and their parents.

Using The Laundry Chute Arm & Hammer mobile app, students can drop off their laundry bags at on-campus proprietary smart lockers which are accessible 24/7. Then a student processor will launder and fold the items using the on-campus laundry facility in as little as 4-8 hours. Arm & Hammer and OxiClean detergent plus stain remover and color boost paks work to ensure a powerful clean that students can rely on, without any of the wait for a dryer to become available and with assurance their clothes are neatly folded right out of the dryer cycle. Parents can also have peace of mind knowing that their children will always have fresh and clean clothes and linens, and fewer piles of laundry to do every time they come home.

“Through our collaboration with The Laundry Chute, we’re excited to offer today’s time-crunched, tech-savvy students a 24/7, on-demand laundry service powered by Arm & Hammer and OxiClean,” said Tammy Talerico, director of licensing at Church & Dwight Co., Inc. “We look forward to continuing a strong collaboration with The Laundry Chute as we expand rapidly across campuses nationwide.” The Laundry Chute’s collegiate service launched first at the University of Pittsburgh that has over 18,000 students, and they are all able to download The Laundry Chute and Arm & Hammer mobile app to sign up as processors or customers. The service will continue to exclusively use Arm & Hammer and OxiClean products with baking soda to deliver a powerful clean.

“When we looked at ways to scale The Laundry Chute on a much larger and national level, it was critical to bring in the right partner with industry expertise and a trusted and reputable product portfolio,” said chief executive officer, The Laundry Chute, James Janis. “It became clear that Church & Dwight was the best partner to support our growth and expansion.”
