Why engineers are joining WASHCO

Working at WASHCO

Working responsibly

We've asked some of the engineering team why they chose to move to WASHCO and what they're enjoying about their role.

Gary Devlin - Field service engineer

I decided to join WASHCO after having a short break from the industry. After working for a few other laundry companies over the last 8 years, I had become very disillusioned with the whole industry. While others seemed to prioritise their office staff and forget about the engineers out on the road, WASHCO takes a completely different approach. Every person is treated as an individual and valued. Not everything is perfect, but what I appreciate is that they are continuously trying to improve. They seem to grasp the concept that happy employees make good employees and will always try their best to further you as an individual so that you can do your best.

Mike Murphy - Field service engineer

When I first joined Washco, I was relatively new to the commercial laundry industry. My current service manager played a key role in convincing me to stay in the industry after I had a bad experience with a different laundry company. That’s when I realised, I was joining a fantastic team. What I appreciate most now is the support network at WASCHO—it’s by far the best I’ve had in my career. Every service engineer knows how crucial support is in the field, and WASCHO truly embodies that.

Matt Edwards - Field service engineer

I joined the WASCHO Team in January 2024, after leaving another laundry company due to the lack of support, training and poor working conditions. I can honestly say from a work/home balance perspective, joining WASHCO is the best thing I’ve done. My service manager is the best manager I’ve had in my 30 years working, and WASHCO is a pleasure to work for. I’m very happy!

It’s time to celebrate what matters most…people! The Love Laundry Awards are back, shining a light on the unsung heroes of care home laundries. Created by WASHCO in 2021, the awards aim to honour those making a difference behind the scenes. They reflect values we hold dear and are a great way for care home professionals to recognise the dedication of laundry teams around the country. The awards now feature new categories inspired by the amazing stories we received from people nominating their colleagues and homes in previous years. The categories are: - Laundry Hero Award – To honour an individual who goes above and beyond the call of duty in the laundry room. - Laundry sustainability award – to celebrate environmental sustainability initiatives. - Laundry leadership award – to acknowledge exceptional leadership. - Laundry trailblazer award – to recognise people who challenge the accepted and enable innovation. WASHCO celebrates those who go the extra mile day in and day out. That same spirit shapes how the team is supported, recognised, and valued every day at WASHCO. ...Show more

Earlier this month, the WASHPOINT team travelled to Cirencester for the 2025 ASRA Conference – a key event for student accommodation professionals across the UK. It was a great opportunity to connect with the sector, show what we had to offer and bring some fun to the floor with our Beat the Buzzer game. After a full day of networking, the team joined attendees for a cowboy-themed evening, complete with hats, boots and line dancing! At WASHCO, our people get the chance to attend events, meet new faces and explore new places across the UK....Show more
