Why Partner with us

We are not an ordinary laundry service. Orange Sky approaches partnerships with cultural integrity and independence at the forefront to improve wellbeing and outcomes in the communities where we operate.

We know that each community has unique strengths and challenges. That’s why Orange Sky values listening and learning to ensure our service aligns with the community’s health, social and cultural needs.

Our Partners
Orange Sky’s remote services make up a third of our footprint across Australia, currently operating in communities in Queensland, Northern Territory and Western Australia. We could not deliver our service without community consultation, purposeful partnerships, local employment and the support of residents.

Our services
Our remote services are tailored to suit the needs of each community - whether that’s a truck that’s purpose built for the remote Australian terrain or a set of washing machines in what we call a laundry pod. Check out the different ways we offer our free laundry services. 
Remote Vehicle
Remote Vehicles
Containing three washing machines and three dryers, our Remote Vehicles are designed to deliver our service in remote communities in Australia. These vehicles are solar powered and deliver hot washing to improve hygiene.
Maningrida Pod
Laundry Pods
Our laundry pods are static, standalone structures that remain at a location for an extended period of time. They are equipped with two washing machines, two dryers and of course - six orange chairs.
Indoor Laundries
Indoor Laundries
By placing washing machines and dryers within our partner organisations, we create a space for people in need to be able to access laundry facilities and genuine conversations.
