Job Description

A day in this role

You roll up to the first site of the day in a well‑stocked company vehicle. The plan is clear: unload, set, wire, plumb, vent, level, anchor, and bring a new bank of commercial washers and dryers to life. You verify utilities, read the prints, commission the machines, and walk the customer through safe operation and basic care. Before you leave, you complete the checklists, register warranties, tidy your tools and parts, and flag any top‑level items to your Manager so the whole team can keep improving.

For more than 110 years, we’ve helped laundromats, Speed Queen franchise operators, and on‑premises laundry managers get more from every load. We’re a full‑service partner—installation, factory‑trained service, genuine parts, site selection, financing, and store design—backed by trusted brands known for durability: Speed Queen®, UniMac®, and Huebsch®.
