Our Journey: Growing With You
Since our beginnings in 2015, we have evolved to always offer you the best service.
Opening of LaColada in Ponferrada
We began our journey with the enthusiasm of offering a modern, fast, and efficient self-service laundry service for the residents of Ponferrada and El Bierzo.
Expansion of Services and Hours
Listening to our customers, we incorporated more high-capacity machines and extended our hours to better adapt to their needs.
Eco-Efficient Technological Renovation
We invested in the latest technology, updating our equipment with more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly machines.
Strengthening Sustainable Commitment
We implemented additional measures for sustainability, optimizing water and energy consumption and using biodegradable washing products.
Website Redesign
We completely redesigned our website to be more transparent and to provide tips and tutorials for our customers.
Work while you wash
We know your time is valuable. That's why we don't just offer "free WiFi". We have enabled an area with high-speed fiber optics and comfortable sofas so you can make the most of the 30-45 minutes of your laundry by answering emails or working without interruptions.
- Stable connection for video calls
- Climate-controlled and quiet environment
We are in the Upper Area of Ponferrada
We are strategically located so you can make the most of your visit, avoiding the traffic and crowds of the city center:
Cafetería Venuska
Perfect for a coffee while you wait. It's right across the street!
Supermercado Día
Do your daily grocery shopping while waiting for the washer. You just have to cross 2 crosswalks.
Our Values
Real Technical Criteria
We don't follow trends, we follow data. We test every detergent and program on our industrial machines. If it doesn't clean or damages the fabric, we don't use it.
Textile Heritage
We come from a haberdashery family. We know how to differentiate good cotton from synthetic, and we adjust the machinery to care for every fiber just like grandma taught us.
Mechanical Honesty
We know which part fails when the machine makes noise. We keep the equipment spotless not for aesthetics, but for efficiency and safety.
Total Transparency
No fine print in prices and no tricks with wash times. What you see on the panel is what you get on your clothes.
Meet the Technician
We speak with authority because we repair (and wash a lot).
Sebastián R.
Specialist Technician & Founder
Behind LaColada lies over a decade of repairing machinery. I know which part is failing when your washer sounds like an airplane, and I know why cheap detergent ruins the pump. We combine hard mechanics (grease-covered hands) with the delicacy we learned in the family haberdashery.
Lost Items Policy
We know it can be scary to leave your wallet or keys in a public place. That's why we have created a strict security protocol for your peace of mind.
Secure Custody
If we find something, we store it in a locked security locker for 15 days.
Video Surveillance
We have continuous video recording to verify the ownership of any claimed item.
Radical Honesty
We are a family business. If something turns up, we keep it for you. No fine print.
