WaveMax Laundry, a self-service laundry business, opened its first Denton location off East University Drive at the end of August, owner Jarrod Tallman said.
The details
WaveMax Laundry offers a variety of services, including self washing and drying; drop-off services where WaveMax employees wash, dry and fold laundry; and commercial laundry services for gyms, rentals, medical offices and salons in the area.
Other amenities include a drop-off service, text alerts, 24-hour security surveillance and available snacks and soap, according to the company website.
Jarrod and Elizabeth Tallman said opening a WaveMax Laundry in Denton was personal for them. Elizabeth Tallman is a University of North Texas alumna and Jarrod Tallman said he fell in love with the community.
“As a veteran, I've been fortunate to live and work in a lot of places, but Denton is one of those rare towns where you can feel the character the moment you get here,” he said.
The duo wanted something that they could own and grow together and said the company’s values aligned with their own. The proximity to UNT and Texas Woman's University and working with parents with limited time, apartment residents, contractors and small-business owners allows the Tallmans to give back to the community.
“We wanted a business that wasn't just transactional—one that would let us build real relationships with the people who walk through our doors and with the businesses and neighbors around us,” Jarrod Tallman said.
WaveMax Laundry will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Denton Chamber of Commerce at a later date.
