Sort by the actual instructions
Agree the ordinary clothing, towels or household textiles included and review their labels. The Canadian textile-care guide helps interpret symbols but does not override the item’s own instructions. Delicate, dry-clean-only, valuable or unidentified pieces should be excluded or referred appropriately. Empty pockets and retained personal items need a clear household responsibility.
Define the working arrangement
Confirm whether appliances and consumables are supplied on site, available capacity and how many agreed loads fit the visit. Product preferences, colour separation and drying restrictions should be documented. Contaminated textiles, pest-affected items and medical laundry are outside ordinary household wash-and-fold unless a suitable specialist arrangement is established.
Return an understandable inventory
Agree folding or hanging, where finished items are placed and how incomplete drying or a restricted garment is reported. Cleaning should not promise stain removal, sanitisation or no shrinkage for every textile. Ironing, repairs and wardrobe organisation are separate options. A defined load and item plan gives the household more reliable support than an unlimited laundry request.

A few helpful answers.
Can every towel and garment use one cycle?
No. Fibre, colour and care instructions determine suitable grouping and treatment.
Does wash-and-fold guarantee stain removal?
No. Stain type, history and textile limits affect the outcome; specialist treatment may be appropriate.
