I agree and disagree. Like the comment below, I could see this being really useful in some metro areas. I think what these crowd-source apps are missing are dynamic pricing based on purchasing power. $10 for a load of laundry in San Jose? Yeah, that sounds great. In Austin TX that's pretty high.

True, but I'm from Austin Texas and just moved to San Francisco, so I have some insight into this. I'm not sure if there's as big of a demand for laundry pickup services outside of dense urban areas like New York and San Francisco (where many residents do not have in-home washers and dryers). In Austin, most people have laundry machines, so it might not make sense there. For crowd-sourced apps more generally I think you have a valid point with respect to cost of living adjustments.
