Yes, plus there's also the size and frequency of the pain point to consider. Uber makes sense; millions and millions of us need to get somewhere at any given point in the day, and many of those millions have that need multiple times a day. An on-demand solution, conveniently at the click of a button on your phone, makes a hell of a lot of sense.
Laundry and dry cleaning? First, that's definitely not a daily need. Debatably a weekly need. Second, it's not really a mobile need, and I don't just mean in terms of the device. It's not an on-the-go problem. Sure, the idea of on-demand pickup and dropoff sounds mildly more convenient than the traditional method -- but not so much more so that it's worth the price premium.
