Why I Have a Side Hustle Doing Laundry With a 6-Figure Full-Time Job

The year is 2020. COVID-19 has forced almost everyone to work from home. Some see it as the end of the working life as we know it. I see an opportunity to build my side hustles. Side hustles become my ‘fun money’ that I can spend without dipping into the family budget.

A year later I get introduced to a company called dree through a YouTube video. My side hustle lightbulb went off. I work from home and could do laundry during my breaks from work! I’m already the one who does laundry in our house and there’s something relaxing about folding laundry. I signed up right away to become a dreePro.

The perfect gig for people with work-from-home jobs or stay-at-home parents.

When you look at what goes into doing laundry, the most time-consuming part is folding. The actual act of washing and drying the clothes happens on its own with your washer and dryer. The process of doing laundry makes it a great side-hustle to do on your own time.

The dree team keeps your orders within a 10-mile radius to keep driving time low as well. If you get an order outside of that, they provide extra compensation.

Unlike other laundry-on-demand companies, dree compensates you by the number of dree bags (set pay), not the weight of the bag. There’s no opportunity for weight disputes from customers. One bag is one bag!

Amazing support makes the dreePro experience seamless and enjoyable

When I say the dree team is amazing, I mean it. They are helpful, responsive, and supportive of me as a dreePro. If I have a timely issue with an order, they respond right away. On a vacation? Not a problem, let them know and they’ll reassign orders for that week.

The dree team also keeps you engaged as a dreePro with ways to earn more money. They send out bounties for items outside of laundry processing. They also host contests for providing tips and tricks for the rest of the dreePro community.

One of the fears a new dreePro might have starting out is the effort needed to find new clients. With dree, they turn on ads in your radius and find the clients for you. No awkward conversations to convince your neighbor to let you do their laundry!

The flexibility of processing orders, consistency of compensation, and culture at the company make being a dreePro a side hustle a no-brainer. It’s also a service for the community by removing the stress of having to do laundry every week and having someone else do it for them!
