Ozaukee County has three coin laundries. One owner keeps all three — the floors, the machines, and the phone when something goes wrong. Here is the whole story, scene by scene and door by door, so you know what you are walking into before you load the car.
Nobody grows up dreaming of a trip to the laundromat. The least we can do is make the trip predictable — same standard at each door, same voice on the phone.
This is the one people mean when they say “the laundromat in Cedarburg.” It sits on Washington Avenue in the middle of the historic district, a block up from the creek. Start a load, walk out the door, and the whole street is right there — which is a nicer way to spend a wash cycle than a plastic chair.
W63 N150 Washington Ave
Cedarburg, WI 53012
Sharing a plaza with Sendik’s is the whole trick here. Load the washers, walk next door for the grocery run, and come back to laundry that has done itself while you were gone. Forgot the detergent in the hall closet? We sell it. There are seats inside and shaded ones out front for the stretch where all you can do is wait.

Grafton, WI 53024
The north end of the county, a few minutes inland from the harbor. If you live in Saukville, Knellsville, Belgium or Fredonia, this is the closest coin laundry there is — so the parking sits directly in front of the doors and nobody has to carry a full basket any further than they have to.

Three doors, one line. Whichever store you are standing in, (414) 651-0122 reaches the person actually responsible for it — not a call centre, not a voicemail box that gets checked on Fridays. A machine out of order, a coin stuck, a question before you drive over: same number, any store.
That is also why this is one website instead of three. The stores are not competitors down the road from each other. They are the same laundry, spread across the county so one of them is always close to you.
Bring the pile you have been avoiding — the work shirts, the towels, the comforter that will never fit in the machine at home. There are quarters in the change machine, soap on the shelf if you forgot yours, and a table cleared off for folding.
Saukville, Knellsville, Belgium and Fredonia are closest to the Port Washington store. Mequon and Thiensville come up Washington Avenue to Cedarburg. Grafton has its own door on 1st Avenue, right beside the grocery run you were making anyway.
You will not find posted hours, machine counts or prices here. Those change, and a laundromat website that lies about its hours is worse than one that says nothing. Everything on these pages — addresses, what is in the stores, which towns each one serves — is meant to still be true a year from now.
For anything that moves, call (414) 651-0122.
