My first time at a laundromat! Went here even though 20 mins out of my way based on positive reviews. Did not disappoint. The lady managing the facility was super helpful showing me what to do etc. While waiting she didn't stop sweeping and helping others out. The facility is clean and machines are super fast. Think the wash took about 30 mins. Plenty of washers and dryers for all. Well maintained. In a cute shopping area. I felt safe leaving my stuff in the machines while checking put the stores! read more

I don't need to use a Laundromat that often, but if I had to I would want them all to mimic this place! Very friendly staff as well as an outstandingly clean business. Great Job Big Wave. read more

Washer and dryer broke at my apartment complex so last resort was to come to big wave laundromat which was the closest to home. OMG this place is squeaky clean and tons of washers and dryers of different choices and prices pretty cheap being its New Years with every wash u get a free dry! This place has specials all the time the attendant told us who by the way was very friendly and helpful being first timers. I am considering going here instead of my insure laundry because it gets the job done unlike my cheap dirty washer/dryer at my complex. Will definitely be back. read more

Clean, attendant on duty was very helpful and nice. Free wifi! I'll definitely be coming back here to do my laundry.

So the power went out today at the laundromat on Monument Blvd-- actually that whole entire side of town had a power outage so I decided to go to Big wave. I arrived about 5-10 minutes after 9pm which is the time their last wash should be but I was hoping they can make an exception. I went in and put my clothes in the washing machine as quick as I could then I went to my car to get my detergent and I was followed outside by the RUDEST worker. She was a heartless immature girl probably in her 20's that basically yelled at me to go away. I explained to her my situation and she didn't care, she told me that the last wash is at 9pm no matter the circumstances. I told her that I didn't have much clothes to wash and it would be done by 10pm if not sooner. Nothing I said convinced her, it basically got her angrier the more I spoke. She was a complete cold hearted child that only cared about clocking out as early as possible. She obviously doesn't take any pride in her job nor respect the customers that come here. I had to go back in, get my clothes out of the washing machine in embarrassment and leave. I've never came across anyone so cruel that could make me feel like shit. Long story short, don't bother coming here even a minute after 9 or you can get kicked out. Im pretty sure if you're having any technical issues or if you even have a simple question she won't be pleased to help you out. read more

So my 40 Year-Old Dryer died and I was forced to go to a laundromat to get some clean clothes on a Sunday evening. The repairman was going to take days to rummage up a spare part from the depths of his workshop. I popped in here with all the hamper from the house and was amazed at a washing machine that holds 8, yes gentle reader you read that right, eight loads at once. The corresponding dryer is so big, it could act as a room for the night in an emergency. The staff is really friendly, the place is super clean and they have a little Mexican joint next door if you get the munchies. If the repair guy has not found a part for my dryer I may have to hold a short prayer service for the old one and see what Speed Queen has in my future, read more

Have not used a laundromat since college. Beautiful new high tech machines! This place is kept very clean and the attendant was very helpful!! Free dryers with my wash on a Thursday morning! Very nice place if your traveling and need to get clothes clean! read more

Attendants very helpful. You put money on a card and pay with the laundry card. Machine does not take change, and the machine you purchase a card wth only takes cash. Kind of caught me off guard, so heads up on that! Otherwise very clean! read more

Ok; the scoop, redux. They will refund the card as long as the balance is below $10. The bathroom doesn't charge you- it simply used the card to unlock the door. read more

Recently moved and had some large comforters to wash because of move. GREAT experience with Raphaela who understood how much a novice I was as a first time user of a laundromat. Like WOW!!! If I ever have to I will definitely go back here plus with their wash fold service who knows, may become a regular! Clean and friendly environment!!! read more

Thanks for sharing this place, Yelpers! I had a king size quilt and comforter to wash which were too big for a regular machine, so I checked yelp and found this place. I walked in and the first thing I noticed was how clean the laundromat looked. It's seriously clean!! I was a little clueless about the machines, so the nice woman working there explained which machines I could use and the card system (you put cash onto a card and then use the card to start the machines). She also told me about the wash and fold ($1/lb) and I actually ended up using that option. My total to wash two blankets was $15. YAY! I highly recommend this laundromat for cleanliness and excellent customer service. read more

So.....super friendly women was there today, super friendly women wears an invisible cape that says"super friendly women" Her actual name is Rafela, I hope I spelled her name correctly. So, when super friendly women was there today is was super busy for Thursday which is no surprise because of the free dryer usage before 2pm. Yes, this place is usually niffty, jiffy spick and span clean. Which because super friendly women was there today, it was super clean. They also have free wifi. read more

Having moved to the Bay Area recently from NYC, this laundromat is a dream and luxurious compared to what I'm used to. Clean equipment, change machines that works, bathroom, free wifi, lots of space to fold! The attendant was also very sweet. I couldn't ask for anything more from a laundromat. read more

This is a great Laundromat. It is big and clean and has a huge number of washers that have varying load capacities. I'm using the 80 pounders and they are great ! read more

Today I came to do my laundry and one of the lady's was extremely rude not only once but several times. She would make comments under her breathe every time she would passed by me. She makes people around her uncomfortable. She even took out my laundry, saying that some had asked to use that machine which was completely false. I noticed that she is extremely rude to customers that are women. When she is interacting with male customers she is nice and sweet, even flirting with them. And another lady went to ask them why they took out her clothes and they said that can do whatever they feel like. read more

We do not have a functioning dryer currently, and air drying things like towels is impossible, so we went here hoping to clean and dry our bath towels and other items that cannot be air dried successfully. I picked this place because the reviews were good. This was my first time using a laundromat. The machines are great, like the clothes were definitely getting cleaned in them. The dryers were not as effective though. Are all laundromats this expensive though? We ended up paying $15 to wash and dry two loads of laundry. Not to mention PAYING to use the restroom there. I can understand that this is an excellent laundromat for people who absolutely do not own a washer and dryer, but it was terribly expensive. The place was clean, and the washing machines were awesome, but the prepaid card system was tricky and it cost a lot to do two loads of laundry. If you can afford to buy new appliances, just buy new appliances, but if you cannot afford to own one, and you don't mind paying exorbitant prices. UPDATE: Went here again today. The dryers are awful and don't work on purpose! They suck so you have to spend lots of money sitting there for an hour waiting for your stuff to dry, listening to the infernal and endless playlist of bad pop music. read more

It's a laundry mat. What else can I say - so it is in a divey little area and always a lot of people washing clothes here. You buy a card to activate the machines. Bring your own laundry stuff, but they sell it as well - save money with your own. The nice thing about this place. I can wash multiple loads of clothes in 20 mins or so and dry in 20 minutes or so and fold in 20 minutes or so and out the door with multiple loads of laundry in about an hour or so...I can't do that at home, but I will be getting my own stuff this summer, so this place will do in a pinch. A lot of single guys in here - so they seem starved to want to talk to you, so the time goes by fast when you are chatting and folding clothes...mostly nice people just getting their undies cleaned. They have one or two people working there if you need assistance. All and all very nice place to get 'er done. read more

This establishment is highly professional & the staff highly polite, helpful & dedicated in all what they do. Their machines are always clean, efficient, constantly well maintained &/upgraded using their own cards no coins with all the easiness of cash change & uploads. The laundromat provides free Wifi & it's seating capacity is convenient & it's always impeccably clean; especially their restroom. All respect to staff & management, happy thanksgiving wishing you blessings & prosperity. Tarek El-Dardiri read more

Rocio is a VERY helpful young lady!!!! Answer and helps with everything!!! Im using the 50lb washes for my Big blankets and im hella pleased!!!!! read more

The place is very clean & the staff is polite & helpful! Make sure you bring cash because you have to load a card to use the machines. If you forget cash they do have an ATM machine which is convenient. I love that they do daily wash specials & when you preload $20 on your card you get a free $1... Every little bit helps. read more

I'm a big guy. All my clothes are big. What's more is, I only dropped off my work clothes that are all high visibility orange, even my socks. When I pick up my laundry because we had to work 9 days in a row, I didn't get all of my clothes back. I got one pair of my orange socks back and half of my shirts. Additionally, I did get 2 little boys polo style shirts. This place isn't exactly on my way home, ((45 minutes the opposite direction) so I guess I have to buy new clothes. Thanks for nothing. read more

Wow. When you have to go to the laundromat you do so with dread. But this is a great one. Neat and clean it is a comfortable place to do your wash. They have lots of machines of all sizes and make it cheap , easy and fast to do your wash. They have machines that take as many as eight loads and the dryers can easily handle four loads. I can get in and out in an hour. They also have free wifi. This place is awesome. read more

I had great experiences here while visiting for work. It was always clean and I liked the card instead of coin-op like Im used to. Staff was super friendly and helpful ( I forget the young lady's name, but she was always there Saturday mornings). She did not hesitate to help me with getting change and consolidating my cards ( I always left the previous one at the hotel and had to buy another each time). Great washing experience. All and any machine works wonderfully. read more

Sure you can't sit on the dryers but all in all its really fast to get in and out here. Decent prices but really just the neighborhood laundromat read more

So after my first experience I received a call from the manager and overall I am satisfied with the experience of him making things right. I've never seen effort of any kind like that by a laundromat. I cannot give 5 stars because of what happened but I felt like they are apologetic. read more

I have been going here since I started working as a caregiver. The ladies do a great job keeping this place clean. Not only that if you can do your laundry they provide wash and fold service for a price. So you can literally drop off and pick up. read more

Really nice staff. Really appreciate the free WiFi. Thursday free drying. A bit crowded but nice and clean and good working machines.

Clean spot with a lot of nice washers and dryers. Bring dollar bills because you need to purchase a wash card and it takes dollars. 2 attendants on duty if you need change for big bills too. read more

I used to go here to do my laundry when I lived in Concord. It's a great place! It's super clean, the staff were always friendly and helpful, and I love how you can use the card to pay instead of using quarters. There's a clean bathroom in there for customers, and chairs to sit and wait. And they provide super fast WiFi! I can watch shows while waiting for my laundry to finish. They have days of the week where there are discounts/specials, so definitely check that :) read more

Great New Laundromat!! Very Clean and Big. The Best I have seen. They use a card machine, so no more quarters! Lots of machines to use. Very Friendly Staff that helps you with the machines. Great machines that are the Express type that clean great and fast! I got all my laundry done in about an hour or so. Great food at the Mexican restaurant next door and plenty of parking. This is the place to do your Laundry if you have to do your own. They will even do your Laundry for you for a fee. Great Laundromat. Great Staff!! Working Mom... read more

This place is very convenient for me because of its location. It's right at downtown Concord and I just head here right after work to do my laundry. The machines use a card to operate. You also need to use that card to use the restroom. The place is fairly new so it's clean and everything works. The people that work there are very helpful and usually walk around to clean. The place is clean and convenient. They have vending machines for food, drinks and laundry stuff. It's a little pricier than the coin machine places I've gone to but it's totally worth it. It's clean, everything work and in a nice area. There's grocery stores and plenty of places to eat nearby. It gets pretty busy on Friday-Monday nights. If you go early Saturday and Sunday, it's almost empty. Tuesday-Thursday nights are pretty light too. There's plenty of parking in the area but you might have a long walk depending on how far you park. read more

Big Wave Laundromat - Laundromat Near Me - Concord, California

See all

Really clean and the workers are nice. It's very big and there is always washers and dryers available. I only come here!

It is clean. The employees are helpful and friendly. For example, a woman worker showed me how to swipe the card (tougher than it looks) and made some suggestions. Never mind the second time I came here I didn't think the dryer was reading my card and ended up putting 90 minutes on the dang thing. So I paid it forward to the next guy 'cause I'm hella cool like that. read more

I went to BiG Wave laundry because I was frustrated with the quality of laundry mats in Martinez. I went on Yelp and due to positive reviews I went over right away. Very clean facility, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff on duty. The machines and area are always being cleaned and serviced. Dryers work according to temperature selected. Great pricing and specials on laundry. Wide variety of products in vending machine at very competitive pricing. Washers and driers of multiple sizes able to accommodate 20-80 lb size loads. Keep up the great work! Please open a second location in Martinez! You are desperately needed! Also, restrooms are very clean! Thank you! read more

My clothes got shereeded by the washing machine and when i had told the owner he reimberse me for the items that were damadged. This is a great place friendly staff and great music, a go to favorite when i am in need of a laundry mat!! read more

I don't go to too many laundromats because they are usually filthy with broken machines. I only go when I travel, and only if I absolutely have to. This place is sparkling clean. The young lady that works here in the evening works her butt off keeping this place clean. It's not exactly the cheapest laundromat I here ever been to, but I would drive out of my way to come here. All of the washers and dryers worked and they were very efficient. read more

As my washing machine broken, i decided to go here. That is the first time I go to landromat, and it is not bad at all. The staff is really helpful. read more

I have been using their wash n fold service for 2 years and I could not be happier. Saves me time and they usually have everything ready in less than 8 hours. Can't say enough good things about their friendly staff and quick turn around. read more

I love this place! I bring my expensive clothes I always get everything back everything is folded nice it smells good nothings ever mixed and they do it so fast the girls are really nice I recommend this place to anybody!!!! read more

I haven't used a laundromat in a long time but our dryer lost heat so I Yelped and found this place. Although I live in Lafayette I thought it was worth the drive to check it out and all the positive reviews were right. The lady who works there guided me through the process and made it really easy. The place is clean and the equipment is top-notch. There aren't many laundromats in this part of Contra Costa so if you need one this is the place. read more
