When I first moved into Times Square, friends asked how I was gonna do my laundry, and get groceries and stuff. I said that at some point, I would write about it. So, while I’m looking for stuff to post, why not?
And the big answer is – I’m still not sure how everybody does it!
I use a laundry service that picks up and drops off at my apartment. And I usually use services for foods as well (though sometimes I just walk to the Whole Foods by Bryant Park, but I won’t buy more than 2 bags worth of food at a time, so I can carry it home).
So, it’s not really a huge secret or anything. The way you get your normal person stuff in the middle of Times Square is you pay a premium to get delivery. (Or, there are some things close enough to the outskirts of Times Square, you can walk there yourself.)
Mystery solved!
