MSC Cruises Laundry Prices and Service Guide
Laundry is one of those cruise expenses that is easy to overlook until you need a clean shirt halfway through a sailing. MSC Cruises offers onboard laundry services with individual prices depending on the type of clothing and the service requested.
The MSC Cruises laundry price list below includes prices for dry cleaning and ironing, washing and ironing, and ironing-only service. It also explains the turnaround time and optional express service.
The original onboard laundry form was heavily creased and difficult to read, so the first image below has been cleaned up for clarity while preserving the information from the original document. The original photographed version is also included later in this guide for reference.

Ironing-only service can be particularly useful for clothing that became wrinkled while packed in a suitcase but does not actually need to be cleaned.
MSC Laundry Turnaround Time and Express Service
The laundry form provides useful information about when passengers can expect their clothing to be returned.
Items collected before 12 noon are returned before dinner on the same day.
The form also offers an express option for a 50% additional charge. If express service is not selected, the items are returned before dinner the following day.
That timing is worth considering when sending out clothing you intend to wear for dinner or another activity later in the cruise.
Understanding the MSC Laundry Form
The MSC laundry form is designed for an international passenger base and displays garment names and instructions in multiple languages.
The document includes English, Italian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Arabic.
Passengers can select the appropriate service for each garment and indicate whether express service is required.
The symbols at the top distinguish between dry cleaning and ironing, washing and ironing, ironing only, garments returned on a hanger, and express service.
Original MSC Cruises Laundry Price List
For transparency, the original photographed onboard document is included below.
The original form was heavily folded and creased, which made some of the text and prices more difficult to read. The cleaned version at the beginning of this article was created from this document to make the information easier to use while retaining the original pricing and service details.
Including the original alongside the cleaned version provides a direct reference to the source document while allowing readers to use the clearer image when checking individual laundry prices.
Is MSC Laundry Charged Per Item?
The price list shown here uses individual garment pricing rather than one universal price for a bag of laundry.
Different clothing items have different prices, and the amount also changes according to whether you choose dry cleaning and ironing, washing and ironing, or ironing alone.
For example, the listed washing-and-ironing price for underwear is $2.90, while washing and ironing an evening dress is $11.90.
This makes the final cost dependent on exactly what you send to the laundry.
Planning for Laundry on an MSC Cruise
Whether onboard laundry is worth using will depend largely on the length of your cruise and how much clothing you pack.
On a shorter itinerary, bringing enough clothes for the entire sailing may be easier. On longer cruises, having access to laundry service can make packing lighter considerably more practical.
The price list can also help passengers decide which items make sense to send out. Washing a few basic garments costs considerably less than sending several larger or more delicate pieces for dry cleaning.
If you know before your cruise that you will probably use laundry service, keeping these individual prices in mind can help you estimate that expense as part of your onboard budget.
