NoScrubs is an Austin-based technology company on a mission to "make laundry obsolete," according to a June 11 news release on its launch into Houston.

A closer look

The mobile-first, wash-and-fold platform received $2 million in seed money in April from Initialized Capital to fuel the company's expansion in Austin and Houston, per the release. The service includes three steps:
  • Schedule: Customers can book a pickup online or through the NoScrubs app
  • Clean: Clothes will be washed and folded in four hours or less
  • Delivery: Items are returned to a customers doorstep
Pricing options include choosing between a standard plan for two pickups a month at $59 a month and a family plan for four pickups a month at $198 per month. One time pickups are $45 for 20 lbs of laundry.
