Cornerstone Cohousing maintains five washer/dryer pairs in five different location. Some households use them, some do not. All users are charged a pay-per-use fee per machine load; I think it’s around $2.00-2.50 per load, but I’m not up to date on this. It’s done as an honor system: Make a mark when you run a load. Loads are tallied and billed quarterly. Fees collected are used for service calls, and occasionally, machine replacement. Over the years, money in and money out have balanced pretty well. We do not buy extended warranties.
