Revenue Share

We install brand-new Speed Queen machines at no cost to the property, handle every repair and collection, and share the monthly revenue with you.

How it works β†’
πŸ“…

Fixed Rental

Rent the machines at a flat monthly rate and keep 100% of what the room collects β€” predictable budgeting with full control over vend pricing.

We take care of the room β€” the revenue follows

Smart-O-Mat is family-owned and run. Our whole model rests on one idea: a laundry room that actually works earns more β€” for your property and for us. So service isn’t a department here; it’s the business.

  • Guaranteed 24–48 hour response β€” a written commitment, not a marketing claim.
  • 3-strike replacement guarantee β€” same fault three times in three months and we replace the machine.
  • Dryer vent cleaning included in many agreements β€” clean airflow is machine health, drying speed, and fire safety.
  • Transparent revenue statements β€” you see gross, the split, and your share. Every period.
  • Our own technicians β€” on scheduled routes across CA, AZ & NV, not subcontractors.
  • No auto-renewal traps β€” agreements go month-to-month after the term, unlike the industry’s infamous evergreen clauses.
  • Call the owner β€” big enough to run 8,000+ machines, small enough that the owner picks up.

Technology forward

The most connected laundry rooms in the business

Old-school laundry companies bolt a coin box to a machine and disappear. We run connected rooms that talk to residents, to property managers, and to us.

πŸ“±

Real-time machine availability

Residents can check open washers and dryers from their phone before they ever walk down β€” fewer trips, fewer complaints, happier renewals.

πŸ””

Automatic β€œit’s fixed” alerts

When a machine is repaired, everyone who uses that room is notified automatically. Your office never fields the β€œis it working yet?” calls.

πŸ“‘

Proactive monitoring

Connected machines often tell us something’s wrong before a resident does β€” so many issues are already scheduled for repair before anyone reports them.

πŸ’³

Every modern way to pay

Mobile app, add-value card, tap-to-pay at the machine β€” or classic coin. Your residents’ mix decides, not ours.

Why Speed Queen

One machine brand, on purpose

We install Speed Queen exclusively β€” commercial machines built for decades of heavy use, not residential units dressed up for a laundry room. Running one platform is a service decision:

  • Commercial-grade durability β€” engineered for high-traffic shared rooms, tested for thousands of cycles.
  • Every part on our shelves β€” one platform means we stock parts for the entire fleet, which is a big reason our repairs are fast.
  • A consistent resident experience β€” same controls, same reliability, at every property we serve.
  • Efficiency your utility bill notices β€” modern, efficient wash and dry cycles across the fleet.

Why we bet the company on Speed Queen β†’

Property managers

One provider, one contact, one reporting format across every property you manage β€” with residents reporting machine issues directly to us, not to your office.

πŸŽ“

Universities & student housing

High-volume rooms, app payments students actually use, and real-time monitoring that keeps laundry off your facilities team’s plate.

🏦

Property owners & HOAs

Laundry is a real income line for your building. We model your property’s demographics honestly, show you the math up front, and pay your share on time β€” every period.

Questions owners ask us

Straight answers

What does the revenue share program cost the property?

Nothing. We supply, install, and maintain brand-new Speed Queen machines at our expense, and share the monthly revenue with the property per the agreed split.

How fast do you actually respond to a broken machine?

Our agreements include a guaranteed 24–48 hour response. Residents can report issues directly from the machine, so problems reach us immediately.

Can you take over from our current laundry provider?

Yes β€” transitions are routine for us, including machine swap-out logistics and haul-away. We'll walk you through how existing contract end-dates and buyout clauses typically work.

Coin, app, or card payments?

Any combination: coin, mobile app, add-value card, or tap-to-pay at the machine. Your residents' mix decides, not ours.

Let’s look at your laundry room

Tell us about your property and we’ll model its numbers β€” then walk you through revenue share, rental, and purchase side by side, so you can choose with the math in front of you.
