Doing laundry during your Disney vacation is a great way to cut down on suitcase space and pack lightly. Even if you don’t plan on doing laundry, you never know when something you’ve packed might need an emergency wash! Luckily, every DVC resort has several spaces to laundry and if you are staying in a villa with more than one bedroom you likely have a washer and dryer inside your room.
Laundry detergent is typically available for sale in vending machines located inside the laundry rooms. If you have a washer and dryer located in your hotel room then you will usually be supplied one small packet of detergent for your stay. If you plan on doing more than one load of laundry it might be a good idea to pack your own.
You can utilize the website LaundryView to check the availability of your laundry room in real time! Here are the locations of the laundry rooms for each DVC resort at Walt Disney World:

We will be staying in a DVC studio at the Polynesian. We will not have Magic Bands. Can we gain access to the laundry by using our room key card?
Hello! You should be able to use laundry services without having Magic Bands!
Thank you for this information! We are planning a combined Disney Cruise and WDW Visit and wasn’t sure what the best way to pack would be. It seems like we’ll be able to take less since we can do laundry once we get to the resort. Do you happen to know whether there are laundry facilities on the Disney Cruise Liners as well? I’m hoping we don’t have to use them, but with a five-year-old and a two-year-old it’s best to be prepared!
Hello! According to Disney’s website, there are laundry services about the Disney Cruise Line ships. Both self-service and full-service delivery laundry service is available for an extra fee.
