Welcome to T&L!

Company Growth

Where were you in 1976? American was 200 years old, the Viking I Robot made the first ever successful landing on mars, and T&L Equipment Sales Co. Inc. opened its doors! Twenty five years ago ...

When the doors of T&L Equipment opened, self-service laundries were run with quarters - today they use new SmartCard technology. The average store was 800 square feet. Today the market is filled with 5,000 square foot "mega stores". At T&L, we feel the best way to stay on top and serve our customers is too stick with a consistent plan to provide excellent service and keep up-to-date on the newest technology. T&L served the "Mom and Pop" type stores during the early 70's - stores that operated with a lock, key and a physical presence. Now we work with the newest technology allowing owners to monitor equipment usage and cash flow from a central location by computer. This developed the latest marketing strategy in the industry - "Time of Day / Week Pricing" - a strategy that allows laundry owners to set pricing based on customer traffic flow.

In the 1990's, T&L began expanding by brokering stores for customers.

T&L Business Services Division opened in 1995. Today this division offers consultation, including site-selection, finance packaging and building and equipping self-service laundries.

From Stores in 1976...

To Stores in the 21st Century

T&L really gets into business!

To stay competitive and on top of the industry, T&L remains active in the laundry industry's national trade association, and constantly monitors proposed legislative actions affecting the industry. Company representatives attend industry and manufacturer seminars on the latest technological developments, and customers are offered training through service and maintenance schools on the equipment sold by T&L. ON the horizon, T&L Equipment is working toward a Water Reclamation System. When successful, this process would conserve water and eliminate gray water discharges.

At T&L, we know the major part of our success is due to our customers. Over the past 25 years, we have been fortunate to work with outstanding leaders in the industry, and with customers who know what they need, and continue to come to T&L to get it. T&L understands that customers make our company a success!
