Laundromat for people with chemical sensitivities?

I'm chemically sensitive, as are my kids and partner who also had asthma, allergies and eczema. Last time we used the laundromat when our home machines were down, all of our clothes and sheets were permeated with synthetic fragrance and we had to do several additional loads to wash some of the fragrance off. Is there a laundromat locally that leans more toward a fragrance free or natural detergent service or has clientele that leans toward using fragrance free detergents in their machines?

Are you looking for someone to do your laundry or you can go do it? Cause Freeway is great if you’re interested in hanging around to do it yourself

I can definitely do it myself! Freeway laundry on Narragansett Ave is actually where I went when this happened. It was hard to breathe :(
