On-demand laundry service Washio is shutting down
The on-demand laundry service announced that as of Monday, it's no longer accepting new orders and any outstanding orders will be returned to its customers, according to a post on the company's website.
The startup, which was founded four years ago, served six cities in the U.S. and was one of the early on-demand service companies. Washio, which is based in Los Angeles, raised $16.82 million in funding and counts Ashton Kutcher and Nas among its investors.
Washio was reportedly talking to competitors about acquiring the company, according to TechCrunch. Apparently such a deal never came about.
Washio did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
