There is a communal laundry facility in each of the halls of residence. Heltne, Porse, Myrane and Røysmarka have pay-as-you-go cards that you will be given when you move in.

If you lose this card, please notify us a soon as possible so that we can cancel it. You are otherwise responsible for the use of this card for as long as it is valid. You must return this card when you leave. If you do not do so, there will be a charge.

The washing machines and driers can only be used between 7am and 11pm (except at Myrane, where access is 24/7 because the laundrette is in its own building).

Each wash cycle costs 12 kroner and each drying cycle is 10 kroner.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to use your own washing or drying machine – or your own dishwasher at our halls of residence. The only exceptions are Heltne C-011 and C-012.
