The fully automated laundromat has new washers and dryers, an ATM, a change machine and a laundry products vending machine. There’s a folding area and a sitting area with a wall-mounted TV. The laundromat has four washer sizes — 60-, 50-, 40- and 30-pound capacities.

Washrite Laundromat opened in early March and is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., offering a bright, clean area to the many apartment dwellers in the area.

Yasin and his family also own other businesses in Lewiston — Dave’s Place gas station on Sabattus Street, Lewiston Variety on College Street and Kim’s Kitchen on Russell Street.
