If you're caught short of time or as has happened many a time to moi, the washing machine breaks and your landlord hasn't been very co-operative, It's really cheap and is only 25 mins per load. The drums are so huge I've had bets on being able to fit inside, but even if that is slightly unlikely, they take a 33kg load and wash it in half the time. Winner! It's not exactly rocket science but everything is clearly and helpfully labelled and then all you have to do is wait for the magic to happen... Voila! Clean! They've also got late night opening in specific branches with the last load being 7pm so if you want a little romance struck over Bold and Lenor then this is the place. The best part is if you're in a real rush they provide a washing, ironing and folding service for a good price. (Great for students who want a live-away mum!)

Dry cleaners need to take care of important items and need to be trustworthy and this place is just that which left me feeling really impressed. The people here are very friendly and polite always making the customer feel as though their particular custom is the most important and this results in the customer feeling very valued indeed. The service and quality here is top notch meaning that I have returned time and again to use them. The waiting times are short here and the whole business is professionally run and this left me feeling very impressed indeed. This is a great business which I would recommend to anyone in the area as they will not be let down.

I have had dry cleaning done in other places nearby and they weren't as cheap or as quick as Aigburth Dry Cleaners. Like many of the shops around the Lark Lane area of Aigburth this place has an excellent community feel. The staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome and valued as a customer.

If you get confused, just ask the friendly staff in the office who will point you in the right direction.

It's like if you found out burgers make you healthy. I could happily spend all day throwing things at other things here. It's incredibly cathartic. Even leaving it behind is terrific since when you get home you notice the huge space in your house that used to be occupied by a cumbersome piece of junk. God, I'm gushing. To be fair I was only at this place an hour ago. I think I'm still reeling from the excitement.

Bulky Bob's will then come to collect your item(s) on the specified time. Their van is always noticeable with it being purple in colour and a bold sign bearing their name. It is really that simple and as long as your items are in a stable condition, then there is no reason why Bulky Bob's would reject your request.

Later I found out that the drier wasn't drying the clothes. I contacted Scott who said that he would return and fix the drier. During the last five months he has promised to return on at least eight occasions. He has broken every appointment except for one: on that occasion he arrived and told me that he was 'just passing' but couldn't work on my drier because he was 'having problems with his car'. I have telephoned him dozens of times and sent the occasional text. He has never replied to a text, and on the very few occasions he has answered the phone he has been either evasive or downright untruthful. He still has my £94 and I still have a broken drier.

I was informed that there was a launderette nearby so I decided I would cope. The Liver Launderette is situated by the busy Lark Lane and is one of two on Aigburth Road. I first went there in the daytime and having never used a launderette before I was pleased to see that there was an attendant on duty who showed me how to use the machines and also provided me with some washing powder for a small charge. The launderette is nice and clean, and provides a warm haven to shelter in when the weather is on the cold side. There is plenty of seating on which you can sit and read a magazine, or chat to a friend. Now I have moved and have my own washing machine I have been back a couple of times to wash my duvet. If you go during the daytime when an attendant is present they will sort out washing the duvet for you for a small extra charge. They also provide a dry cleaning service where the items are collected daily and returned shortly after. This is a great little launderette which serves its purpose well.

However, 50p for 5 minutes of drying time is pathetic. I spent nearly £35 on 5 wash loads with £15 on washing and £20 on drying. Despite spending what I felt was a ridiculous amount on drying, not one item of clothing was dry and after hours and I ended up bringing everything home still damp. Complete waste of money.
