random UK wording question

Ridiculously stupid questions, but I am anal, so here goes: Are there laundromats there? Are the machines called washers and dryers? And do you call it doing laundry?

I have heard that as a general term, and in my memory it was in Waco. (Though it could certainly be other places, Waco is just the only place I've lived where I had to use a laundromat regularly.)

Maybe it's more than just East Texas, then.

I haven't heard that term in Plano/DFW.
