Check more Montreal pricesWhat Laundry (per kg) Actually Costs in Montreal
Laundry (per kg) in Montreal costs CAD 2–3.5 where residents buy it, and CAD 4–6 in the parts of the city built around visitors. That is roughly 71% more at the top end, or about CAD 4 lost on a single purchase if you happen to buy at the worst place on the worst street. These figures were last reviewed in September 2026.
Service pricing in Montreal is set by catchment, not skill. A shop whose customers live within walking distance prices for repeat business; one whose customers are in town for four nights prices for a single visit.
If you want one number to carry around Montreal, use CAD 3. Paying up to CAD 3.5 is unremarkable. Once a quote crosses CAD 4, you are inside visitor pricing and it is worth walking on.
The practical takeaway for Montreal is small and repeatable. Know that CAD 2–3.5 is normal, recognise CAD 4–6 as the visitor rate, and decide deliberately rather than by default.
