Pickup in Downtown Houston

Freeways ring downtown: I-45 curves along its west and south sides, I-69/US 59 runs down the east, and I-10 crosses the north, where Buffalo Bayou meets White Oak Bayou at Allen's Landing. Inside that ring sit the 17-block Theater District, home to Jones Hall, the Wortham Theater Center and the Alley Theatre; the Main Street Market Square Historic District, with some of the city's oldest buildings around Market Square Park; City Hall and Hermann Square; and Sam Houston Park. On the east side, the George R. Brown Convention Center faces Discovery Green, both carrying 77010 addresses, and Toyota Center and Daikin Park stand nearby. Underneath it all, a pedestrian tunnel system links blocks of downtown.

Our store sits about 11 miles from downtown in a straight line, measured from the 77010 center (11.0) and the 77002 center (11.3). Wash Bodega operates just that one location, 6604 W Bellfort Ave, and keeps no lockers, drop points or staff downtown. Laundry from 77002 and 77010 is cleaned and folded in Westbury, then brought back by one of our own drivers. Because 77002 also runs south into Midtown, Cents relies on your full address, not the neighborhood name, to place you on a route.

ZIP codes for pickup requests

  • 77002 11.3 mi
  • 77010 11.0 mi

Miles are straight-line distances from the store to the center of each ZIP code, not driving distances. A listed ZIP accepts a pickup request; Cents confirms the route and schedule for your street address.

Tips for Downtown Houston

  • If your tower requires visitors to check in, use the Cents order to say whether the concierge will hold the bag or you'll leave it outside your unit, and add the unit number plus the name on the order so staff can match it.
  • Lofts in converted buildings sometimes use a freight door, side entrance or call box instead of a staffed lobby. Describe the right entrance in Cents, and phone our team to arrange building access if a call box or fob is part of it. Fob numbers and door codes shouldn't go into public forms.
  • Discovery Green and the convention center carry 77010 addresses, while Sam Houston Park and Allen's Landing have 77002 addresses. Type your exact street address and building name into Cents so it can find the route that serves you.
  • Expecting a big load after a trip or houseguests? Comforters and spare blankets can ride along; they're priced on their own, apart from the per-pound rate. Ask about specialty items before sending them so their care requirements can be confirmed.
Downtown Houston pickup FAQ

FAQ: pickup in Downtown Houston

  • Yes. We take requests from 77002 and 77010 addresses, whether you live in a tower or a loft. Cents confirms your building's address, the route and an available time. Add access details to the order so the driver can get to the bag.

  • If your building's desk accepts it, yes. Note the desk in your Cents order with your unit and name, and call (832) 834-5689 so someone on our team can sort out building access when your building uses a call box or key fob. Keep fob numbers and door codes to the order notes or a phone call; they don't belong in public forms.

  • Downtown wash and fold is billed at $1.69 per pound with a 15 lb minimum, and you pay nothing extra for pickup or delivery. Your laundry is weighed when it gets to the store, and that weight sets the total. Comforters, blankets and specialty pieces are priced individually.

  • Plan on having it back, washed, dried and folded, usually within a day: 24 hours from pickup is the normal turnaround. Pickups are generally booked for the next day, and Cents shows current openings for your building when you book.

  • Wash Bodega's own drivers handle every trip. Your bag goes to our only store, in Westbury, roughly 11 straight-line miles from downtown, and it returns to your building from there.

  • Yes. You can walk into the W Bellfort store at any hour, any day, and staff are there around the clock; that's store access only, not pickup or phone hours. Inside, you can leave laundry for next-day wash and fold at $1.29 per pound (15 lb minimum), use self-service washes from $3.25, or choose Wash & Go, where we wash and dry and you fold.
