Hellertown area residents will soon have a new laundromat to use whenever they need to wash clothes or other items.

The Hellertown Laundromat will be located in the Shoppes at Hellertown on Main Street in a unit that was previously occupied by a dry cleaning business. The Spring Hill Cleaners closed in 2020 amid a downturn in demand for dry cleaning during the Covid pandemic.

In addition to an “Opening Soon” sign hung across the entrance, recently-issued Hellertown borough zoning permits displayed in a window indicated that renovations to the unit are being completed by Steve and Kyle Behmlander.

Kyle Behmlander is the owner of several local laundromats, including Saucon Valley Laundromat on Rt. 378 in Lower Saucon Township, Quakertown Laundromat in downtown Quakertown and Broadway Car Wash and Laundromat in Fountain Hill, which he recently renovated.

Other businesses located in the Shoppes at Hellertown include Dolce Patisserie, DiMaio’s Italian Ristorante & Pizzeria, Saucon True Value, Dollar General, Advance Auto Parts, Hellertown Diner and Starbucks.

The borough is home to another laundromat, Lighthouse Laundry on Main, which is located in the 1100 block of Main Street.
