About Us

Established in 1957, Harvard Student Agencies (HSA) is an entirely student-run company, employing over 650 undergraduates annually. Cleaners & Dorm Essentials is the company’s founding agency, and Harvard’s original start-up. Cleaners & Dorm Essentials has provided delivery laundry services to the Harvard community for over 60 years. Every laundry bag requested for pick-up through our tracking app, Knack, is collected by our team of Harvard undergraduate Delivery Associates (DAs).

Our team of DAs work diligently six days a week collecting laundry, and then delivering them washed, dried, and folded year-round straight to your door. DAs pick-up and deliver across every corner of campus, from the Yard to the Upperclassmen Houses.

Every year, Cleaners & Dorm Essentials pays out over $100,000 in student wages to our Delivery and storefront Sales Associates. HSA itself pays over $1.7 million in undergraduate student wages annually. We appreciate every single customer who works with HSA in helping us provide meaningful student employment opportunities for over half a century.
