Accepted Answer

Standard street laundry services in Unawatuna charge by the kilo and aggressively machine wash and heavily tumble dry everything together. This will absolutely destroy delicate linen or silk shirts causing massive shrinkage. For expensive fabrics you must travel five minutes down the road to Galle Fort and use the premium laundry service at a major luxury hotel. Alternatively simply buy a small packet of soft detergent from the supermarket and hand wash your delicate linen items in your hotel bathroom sink hanging them out to dry naturally in the tropical breeze.
