Short answer
This is the price for one coat handed to a professional laundry, not a home-washing estimate. Fabric, trims and drop-off method matter more than the generic service name.
A coat is one of the garments most often sent to a professional laundry: it is bulky and may have a lining, buttons, embellishments or fabrics that are unsuitable for a domestic cycle. There is no national rate, however, because every cleaner assesses the fabric and the work required. In the two direct price lists checked, a coat starts at EUR 8 in Milan, while in Treviglio it costs EUR 12.50 at the counter and EUR 11.25 through an automated locker. This guide therefore uses EUR 9 as a typical observed price and EUR 8 to EUR 12.50 as the range. That does not mean every coat can be cleaned at that figure: leather, detachable details, heavy staining and urgent work can need a quote. Check the care label and point out stains or delicate parts before leaving the garment.

How to spend less
- Read the care label before choosing a service: unsuitable treatment can cost more than the cleaning.
- Point out stains, trims and detachable parts at drop-off so the quote does not change at collection.
- Where a laundry offers an automated locker, check both the real discount and whether it accepts coats.
- Keep the receipt until collection; some shops set storage deadlines for garments.
- Avoid urgent service where possible by planning the clean at the end of the season.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to clean a coat at a laundry?
The checked price lists range from EUR 8 to EUR 12.50 for a standard coat. Lavanderia San Gottardo starts at EUR 8, while Centrolavasecco lists EUR 12.50 at the counter. These are individual provider prices, not a compulsory nationwide rate.
Does an automated locker save money on a coat?
It can where that service exists. Centrolavasecco lists EUR 11.25 through its locker versus EUR 12.50 at the counter, a 10% reduction. Check that the locker accepts the garment and its collection times before using it.
Are stains included in the listed price?
Not necessarily. Centrolavasecco says organic stains, excessive dirt and delicate treatments can change the price. Take the coat in with the stain visible and mention it at drop-off: a list price describes a standard garment, not a guaranteed result without assessment.
Does a coat with leather or embellishments cost more?
Often it does, because leather, trims, detachable parts and specialist fabrics need different work. Centrolavasecco expressly lists those conditions among the factors that can change its tariff. Asking for a quote before leaving the garment is more accurate than applying the base range automatically.
Is it better to clean a coat at the end of the season?
Where the care label allows it, end-of-season cleaning means the coat is stored without dirt or stains that may set over time. It is not necessarily cheaper, but it helps avoid an urgent request before a trip or at the first cold spell, when you have less choice.
Sources and methodology
How we worked it out
We opened two price lists published directly by laundries. Lavanderia San Gottardo lists a coat from EUR 8; Centrolavasecco lists EUR 12.50 at the counter and EUR 11.25 at its automated locker, VAT included. We treat these as observed provider prices rather than an Italian statistical average. EUR 9 is a typical standard-garment figure close to the checked base rates; it does not add alternative options together. Home collection, repairs, exceptional stain removal and garments with leather or embellishments are excluded because the second provider says those conditions can change its tariff.
Why this confidence level
Confidence is medium: two recent direct lists from independent laundries show consistent standard-garment prices, but there is no national tariff or representative sample. The range describes the checked lists, not a guaranteed price in every town.
