Pickup in Houston Heights

The Heights lies northwest of downtown Houston. The Houston Heights Association describes it as bounded by I-10 to the south and North Shepherd Drive to the west, with the North Loop (I-610) across the top and North Main and Studewood on the east. Heights Boulevard, whose grand entrance went in during 1892, still runs down the middle on a wide esplanade that doubles as a city park. Nearby stand the 1914 Houston Heights Fire Station at 12th and Yale, built to serve as city hall, jail and firehouse at once, and the pink-stucco Heights Neighborhood Library at 1302 Heights Boulevard. Farther west, Timbergrove Manor and Lazybrook follow White Oak Bayou and share the 77008 ZIP.

On a straight-line basis, the center of 77008 is about 11.4 miles from our store, 6604 W Bellfort Ave. Nothing about the service is based in the Heights: no branch, no locker, no drop-off box. Each Heights order is weighed at W Bellfort, run through the washers and dryers, folded and then delivered back. The trips themselves are made by Wash Bodega's own drivers, and Cents confirms the schedule for your specific address.

Tips for Houston Heights

  • If your house has a porch, a side gate or a detached garage, say exactly which one holds the bag when you place the Cents order. That way a no-contact pickup goes right the first time, and nobody has to knock or wander around the yard looking for it.
  • Living in a townhome cluster behind a shared gate? Explain in your Cents notes which gate to use and how to get through it, then phone us so we can confirm gate access before the first pickup. A gate code should never appear in a public form or a website message.
  • Woodland Heights, just east of Studewood, uses 77009 rather than 77008. Either way, put your house number and street into Cents: requests are accepted in both ZIPs, and Cents confirms which route reaches your block.
  • Comforters, quilts and bulky bedding are welcome but priced separately from per-pound laundry. Sending specialty pieces? Call (832) 834-5689 first to confirm their care requirements. We don't do any dry cleaning, so dry-clean-only clothes should stay out of the bag.
Houston Heights pickup FAQ

FAQ: pickup in Houston Heights

  • Yes. Requests from 77008 addresses are accepted; that ZIP is used by most of the Houston Heights as well as Timbergrove Manor and Lazybrook. Accepting your request doesn't lock in a time, though: Cents checks the exact address, the route and current availability before it sets your pickup.

  • No. Our single store is in Westbury, at 6604 W Bellfort Ave, about 11.4 miles from the middle of 77008 in a straight line. Your laundry travels there to be cleaned and folded, then returns to you. Our doors are open around the clock and someone from the team is always there, but that's about visiting the store; it isn't a pickup window.

  • Heights orders cost $1.69 per pound, there's a 15 lb minimum, and the trips both ways are free. Everything gets weighed on arrival at W Bellfort, and that number sets your total. Quilts, comforters and other big bedding pieces, along with specialty items, have their own prices.

  • Once we've collected it, your order is usually washed, folded and back at your Heights address within 24 hours. Most people schedule one day and have the bag picked up the next. Cents shows the pickup time and current availability for your street when you book.

  • No. Leave the bag where you tell us, whether that's the porch, the side gate or the garage, and write that location plus any access instructions in your Cents order. If your townhome sits behind a shared gate, call (832) 834-5689 so the team can confirm access, and leave gate codes off any open form.

  • Yes. We speak Spanish (se habla español), and we can help in Russian too. Call (832) 834-5689 to change a schedule, explain how to reach your Heights address, let us know about a missed pickup or sort out any problem with an order.
