How much to do my laundry? (NE Indianapolis)

I am taking bids on doing my laundry.
I'm a 42 year old single man and have about 12 loads of laundry to be done. Can be done in my condominium, using my Stack Washer.Dryer and my Soap & Bleach.
Need laundry washed, folded, and some hanged. Some shirts may need ironed.

Laundry consists of:
Jeans
T-shirts
Button Down Camp Shirts
Sports Jerseys
Socks (all the same)
Boxers
Towels
Work Uniforms
Misc.

You are welcome to bring a book, laptop or watch TV to stay occupied during washes. I have wireless internet and cable television.
I prefer not to be home while you do this because I'll just be in the way, so it would need to be done M-F 8am to 5pm.

Please reply to this post with what you will charge along with your name and contact number.

I'm going to have to go with $35,000 and he supplies the quarters for the machine. I also insist that he not be home so I can sell all of his toys while he is away.

Seriously, what is wrong with people?

Sir,

I am afraid that your price is too high, and we are going to keep searching for more bids, and find the lowest POS, (woops I meant price) and go with them.

Good Luck.

Sincerely,

Joe "lazy" Jockstrap
