More 1980s UniMac nostalgia at Missouri motel

It’s no secret that UniMac machines are built to last. That’s one of the reasons why so many consumers choose UniMac for their laundry needs. With that in mind, we created the UniMac Longevity Contest and began our search for the oldest machines out there that are still in use. Here’s a story from a hotel owner, who is still using a machine from 1982.  

Keeping linens clean is a hotel’s top priority, as it directly impacts a guest’s experience and, by consequence, the hotel’s reputation. Motel 6 in Rolla, Mo has relied on UniMac since 1982 and even has a machine from that year still operating.  

The pandemic impacted the hospitality industry but now that people are starting to travel more, the machines at the property are getting back to work. The more travelers, the more laundry, and a quick turnaround time is needed. While the world has changed dramatically in the last few years, the reliability of UniMac has not, which is why this Motel 6 trusts the brand with the important task of making its guests feel warm, welcomed. 

Curious about the winner of the contest? We’ve got a video below and story here with details.
