Starting Dec. 13, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH) military and civilian personnel living in temporary off-site quarters while water services are being restored to affected housing can drop-off laundry and pick it up two days later.

Previously, the turnaround time for laundry was seven days.

“We know living off base in temporary housing is difficult. Our NAVSUP contracting team knew the seven-day turnaround time for laundry was a challenge for families so they worked hard to find a better solution—a faster solution.” said Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Center Pearl Harbor Command Master Chief Melvin Isom.

Laundry service locations are located near water distribution stations.

NEX, 4725 Bougainville Dr. Honolulu, HI 96818
Drop-off Monday 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., pickup after 2 p.m., Wednesday at Hickam Store.
