I’ve never been to a laundromat that does this. It’s pretty fucked up. If I was at a laundromat and somebody else started taking my laundry out, I don’t care why they’re doing it, I’m going to tear them six new assholes.
I hope I encounter you in that situation, because I’ll call you a poor fuck (like me) who can’t afford their own machine.
I don’t have a problem with strangers taking my clothes out of my machine if it’s done and I, for some reason, can’t be there to take it out myself and the place is packed with people waiting to do their laundry.
I used to live in a condo where we didn’t have washers and dryers in the units, and couldn’t add them. (The building was originally going to be an apartment, then they decided to sell them as condos instead while it was under construction.) We had a laundry room on each floor. In that situation it wasn’t a cost thing. And I’ve used laundromats even when I did have my own washer and dryer, for things like bedspreads, or when we were on a long road trip in an RV.
In a shared situation like that, it’s good etiquette to be ready to remove your clothes when the cycle ends. That’s just common sense. Set a timer for a few minutes less than is on the clock. It’s not hard. I would give people a few minutes of grace - as it seems the laundromat did - then remove their clothes. They don’t like it? Then they can be there when the washer or dryer finishes.
In the condo, one woman didn’t want others using the time she paid for even if her clothes were dry, so she’d remove her clothes, shut the door, and restart it. I was waiting a few times when the dryer finished, and no one ever showed up, so I looked, and yep, empty. Thanks for wasting that time of my life, lady, when I could’ve started drying my clothes 15 minutes ago. And it wasn’t like there was ever going to be enough time left for my clothes to dry, so I’d still have to pay. I’m not sure what point she thought she was making.
Y’all are fucking weird. It’s not that hard to wait all 30 seconds for me to walk over to the machine and do it myself. I sure don’t trust total strangers around my anything ever.
I don’t think the issue is with strangers taking clothes out of a machine that just finished. That would be a weird behavior indeed.
The issue is with you leaving the laundromat, go for a cup of coffee, return two hours later when the cycle finished 55 minutes ago, and whining that your clothes were removed.

If this situation happens to you, just step back and remember it’s your own fault 🤙🤙
When you assault some random patron of a laundromat, or the service worker in charge of the machines, I hope they’re armed, and I hope they win.
Nice trolling.
