@annee : it's LE linge, and not LA linge.

But "laundry" is "Blanchisserie". And it is "le linge" that you bring to "la blanchisserie"

According to http://ets.freetranslation.com/, laundry in french is "lessive". Do try checking someone who can translate it personally, just in case. Hope it helped!

A laundry : Une laverie (colloquial for laudromat) or a blanchisserie if you leave your clothes to be cleaned by a professional

To do your laundry : Faire sa lessive

Where is your laundry (clothing) : Ou est ton linge or Ou est ta lessive

Depending what you use the word for, it can mean all three.

Lessive can also mean detergent
