A downloadable "The Sims 4" game mod


Current Mod Version:
2.1.1
Last Update: March 15, 2023


This mod was originally developed by ShuSanR. I took his idea after he announced in February 2022 that he would stop modding and playing the Sims 4 entirely. However, I have revised the implementation of the mod so much that all that is left of the original mod is the idea and I can consider this mod as my own.

Update Notes to Version 2.1.0

The following has been changed or updated in this version:

  • I corrected an animation error that already existed in the ShuSanR version. The bug caused an LE message when a Sim tried to interact with the laundry basket while standing on the wrong side of the basket. 
  • The animation for the "Transfer to Sim Inventory" interaction on the Hamper has also been changed. The error from the original mod was also fixed, that the laundry was always fetched from the basket into the inventory in a neutral state ("used"). Now it can also get really dirty or wet.
  • The price increase for laundry service during holidays has been removed again, otherwise the prices would also increase on all unnecessary holidays like Talk Like a Pirate Day as well. I find that unnecessary. The nightly surcharges remain!
  • I found a way (I'm very proud of it) to remove the limit on the number of laundry orders! Now each Sim can do the laundry jobs as many times as they like without having to wait for the last job to be over! Time is money!
  • Added a new interaction to clothes that have been folded clean, which can also be used to put the clean clothes in the laundry basket (if needed). Why not?
  • Instead, I removed the individual send to the laundry service interactions from clothing items. After all, you don't want to take each piece of clothing to the laundromat individually... Everything first in the basket and then together in the laundromat. Sounds logical?
  • I have adjusted the washing options so that the laundry only comes back scented with the Soft Care Dry Cleaning. Also, the clean and folded laundry can now randomly come back in all three existing object versions and not just in the default version.
  • I have made further translations using the Google translator. Now the mod is available in English, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, French, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Czech, Polish, Russian and Chinese.

Mod Description

Don't feel like doing the laundry either? Does washing and drying take too much time? Or do you only have a small apartment and no space for the washing machine and dryer? The launderette service will help you!

This mod adds new interactions to the laundry basket and laundry pile, allowing you to send your dirty laundry to a laundromat for a fee! There are three different options in total:

  • Ordinary Dry Cleaning - 2 hours (clean and dry)
  • Express Dry Cleaning - 1 hour (clean and warm)
  • Soft Care Dry Cleaning - 3 hours (pristine, warm and fragrant)

The cleaned clothes will be returned to your sim's inventory.

Translations

The mod is available in English, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, French, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Czech, Polish, Russian and Chinese.

I love this mod! I'd love to see more features, or additional mods, much like it. My suggestion, for the future, if you have time, would be to make it so that sims can also get paid to do laundry for other sims, as a freelance career and as odd job/side hustle gigs. 

I love being able to play around with diverse career choices, especially ones that empower mothers within the home. I've known women who made a living from doing domestic duties for other households and would love it if something similar could be replicated into the game for our housewifes and househusbands.

Thank you! :D

I can't get this mod to work (sad face!) I hate to see my Sims doing laundry, and I tried the previous version a while back, but I couldn't get it to work. So I installed the current version, which still doesn't work - everything to do with the laundry basket works. Click on it and select the service, and the dirty laundry is removed, but no clean laundry is ever delivered. I emptied my mods folder of everything but Andirz LaundryService v2.1.2, MC CMD centre & Xml injector v4, and there's still no clean laundry being delivered. Of all the mods in the Sims universe, this is the one I want most (another very sad face!!)

That’s strange. I just tested this and everything works fine. The washed clothes go into the Sim inventory as they should.

I should try without mccc but I don't think I could play the game without it. Possibly there's something corrupted in that save game, maybe a new start will fix it. I really want it to work. Thanks

This is awesome!!
