What happens after I apply to become a washr?

What to expect after applying to become a washr, including application status, onboarding steps, and timeline.

Written by Becky Lasky

Once you submit your washr application at tryhampr.com/become-a-washr, here’s what happens next:

šŸ“¬ Application Review

  • You will receive an email confirmation that we have received your application. If you do not, please check your spam folder.

  • If you are in a market where we are not currently hiring we you will receive an email that your application is on hold.

  • If we are hiring in your market you will receive a request for a background check from Turn. It make take as a long as 1-2 weeks to receive this request.

  • Once you've completed your background check, you will receive your Independent Contractor Agreement to sign. As soon as that’s signed, you are approved and can start washing!

šŸ“Œ Response times may vary depending on market demand.

āœ… If approved, you’ll receive onboarding instructions, including:

  • How to download the washr app and log in with your temporary credentials

  • A link to the washr handbook

  • Supply checklist

  • Quick-start and folding tutorial videos

  • How to join the washr community

šŸ“š Sign up for a training

  • Take advantage of our washr training sessions. Make sure you know how to do laundry the hampr way!

ā±ļø How long does onboarding take?

Most washrs complete claim and order the day that they are approved, depending on how quickly you:

  • Set up your app and profile

  • Add your bank account information

  • Order or confirm your supplies

  • Watch the training videos

šŸ‘‚ Haven’t heard back yet?

If you've submitted multiple applications and haven't received anything, here's what to know:

• Only your most recent application is reviewed. Re-applying doesn't move you up in the queue or speed up the process.

• We may not be actively hiring in your market. If your area isn't currently accepting new washrs, you'll receive an on-hold email.

• Check spam thoroughly.

If it has been more than 2 weeks and you have not received any email at all (not even a confirmation), reach out to us through the support bot in the app or on the web — have the name and email you used to apply, your submission date, and whether you've applied more than once handy.
