Machine Operation

WASH is the manufacturer of our washers and dryers. They installed every machine on campus and are in charge of machine maintenance when needed. For general questions and information on how to use the machines, please visit wash.com/request-help. You can also call WASH at (866) 754-3404.

The Speed Queen app allows you to see what washers and dryers are currently available. Our campus code is W10047. Create an account and enter this location code for access. A machine can also be started from your phone if you plug in the machine’s unique number (located on the top of each washer or dryer). This can be useful if more than one cycle is needed.
