All Residents

Health News
Customers should continue doing laundry, regardless of whether its at a commercial outlet or in the home environment. Regular cleaning will prevent the spread of the disease as the virus can live on clothing for up to 3 days.
Viruses do not like heat. Hot water cycles should be used for washing.
Using the right amount of soap is important. Over-sudsing can prevent clothes from being rinsed properly and can cause dirt, and the virus, to be trapped in fabrics.
DONT FORGET disinfect your laundry baskets or use a disposable bag.
Hope this helps.
We wish you all best through this difficult time.
Bellevue Laundromat Team.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
