Spin City Laundromat

Opportunity

Spin City Laundromats is a self-service franchise delivering truly passive income through 24/7 outdoor laundry pods. With no staff required, minimal maintenance, and full remote access via smartphone, this is the ultimate side hustle or low-touch investment for smart operators.

Each pod features gas-powered washers and dryers, automatic detergent dispensers, and Tangerpay tech for contactless payment and machine control. Franchise partners typically visit their site just once a week to clean lint trays, tidy up, and check gas levels, everything else runs in the background, day and night.

Pods can be installed roadside, on private land, or bolted onto existing business locations, offering a flexible business model with low overheads and high return potential. If you’re looking for a future-focused income stream that doesn’t tie you down, Spin City is your ticket to business ownership on your terms.

Franchisor Profile

Spin City was founded by father-son team Blair and Noel Chilton, who saw the potential to bring compact, European-style laundromats to New Zealand, with a modern tech twist.

Together, Blair and Noel offer franchise partners a wealth of real-world business ownership and operational experience. With a background in managing teams, streamlining systems, and running successful enterprises, they understand the day-to-day realities of building and sustaining a profitable business.

Their approach to franchising is grounded, supportive, and focused on simplicity. With one fully operational pod and another ready for deployment, they’re now seeking like-minded partners to grow the Spin City network across New Zealand, one smart pod at a time.
