Laundry and home support in Ogun State covers a lot of ground: hostel laundromats around Ago-Iwoye, uniform cleaning for workers near the factories of Ota, pick-up-and-delivery rounds in Abeokuta, and agencies that place cleaners and nannies in family homes. Whichever corner of that trade is yours, a registered business name is the paperwork that makes the rest easier, from invoices and a bank account to answering a hostel manager or school bursar who asks who they are dealing with. Onelove Business Ventures is an accredited CAC agent. We handle the name search, the filing and the certificate for you, in any local government area across Ogun State. No forms to wrestle with on your side: a WhatsApp message carrying your business name is the only thing we need to begin.

Here’s Exactly What You’re Paying For
The ₦35,500 is one payment. CAC’s filing fee and our service fee are both inside it, and nothing gets added afterwards. If you would rather register as a company from the start, the Limited Liability Company route is ₦65,500, also all-inclusive.
- A search to confirm your chosen business name is available
- Reservation of that name once it clears
- Preparation and submission of your CAC Business Name application
- The CAC government filing/processing fee
- Your Certificate of Registration, as a soft copy
- A Tax Identification Number (TIN)
- A CAC Status Report showing your business as active on the public register
Outside the Scope of This Registration
CAC registration gives your laundry or home-support business its legal name. These are separate matters that sit with other bodies or with you:
- Printed copies of your certificate, which arrive as a soft copy for you to print wherever suits you
- Any permits from the Ogun State Environmental Protection Agency (OGEPA) that apply to your premises, for example an effluent discharge or chemical storage permit if your operation is large enough or discharges wastewater at scale
- Safe handling and disposal of dry-cleaning solvents, bleaches and other cleaning chemicals, where the rules apply to your type of operation
- Any state, local or professional requirements for staffing, nanny or care placement agencies, which you should confirm before you start placing people in homes
- Premises arrangements, including your lease or tenancy, and any local government levies or signage fees for a shopfront
- Employer obligations if you hire staff, such as pension and employees’ compensation contributions where they apply
- State and federal tax obligations for your business
- Opening a business bank account, which you do with your bank once the certificate is in your hands
- Annual returns in later years, a small separate task we can also help with when it falls due
Business Name or Limited Liability Company?
| Business Name | Limited Liability Company | |
|---|---|---|
| Total cost (all-inclusive) | ₦35,500 | ₦65,500 |
| Separates you from the business’s debts | No | Yes |
| What you receive | Certificate + Status Report + TIN | Certificate + Status Report + Memart + TIN |
| Suits | Owner-run laundromats, dry cleaners, pressing shops and small cleaning teams | Bigger linen operations, multi-branch laundries and agencies with partners or investors |
For most owner-run laundries and cleaning teams, a Business Name does the job: it gives you a legal name for invoices, a bank account and customer dealings. A company structure becomes worth considering when you employ a larger team, place staff in other people’s homes, sign sizeable contracts, or share ownership with partners, since the business then stands apart from your personal assets. Plenty of owners start with a Business Name and move up when the business outgrows it.
Before You Reach Out
Have these ready and the application can move straight ahead:
- Two business names you’d like, listed in order of preference
- One valid ID — your NIN, international passport or driver’s license
- A passport photograph
- Your business address in Ogun State, with the LGA it falls under
- A phone number and an email address
- A short description of what the business does, such as “laundry and dry-cleaning services” or “home cleaning and domestic staff placement”
- For a Limited Liability Company only: names, IDs and details of each director and shareholder
From Message to Certificate
- We check your name’s availability on CAC’s public search portal, which we do on our side.
- We reserve the name once it is confirmed as free.
- We complete the application using your business, owner and Ogun State address details.
- You upload your ID and passport photograph, and a clear phone photo works fine.
- You make the single ₦35,500 payment, which covers everything listed above.
- Your Certificate of Registration, TIN and Status Report arrive, typically within 5–7 working days.
After the initial message and the payment, the remaining work, from filing through to your certificate, sits with us rather than you.
Campuses, Factories and OGEPA: What Shapes Laundry Work in Ogun State
Demand for laundry and cleaning in Ogun is spread across quite different settings. Olabisi Onabanjo University operates across five campuses, with its main campus at Ago-Iwoye and others at Ayetoro, Ibogun and Sagamu, plus a mini campus, and the university’s own campus page describes Ago-Iwoye as offering affordable accommodation to students and staff. Covenant University is at Sango-Ota, and Babcock University is at Ilishan-Remo, roughly midway between Lagos and Ibadan. Students, hostels, a teaching hospital in Sagamu and the factories along the Lagos–Ibadan corridor all generate washing and cleaning work, and they also tend to ask suppliers for proper business details.
Once a laundry grows, environmental rules start to matter. OGEPA issued Water Quality Regulations in 2023 that include an application process for effluent discharge permits, and earlier this year its General Manager urged industries across the state to keep effluent treatment plants working and to obtain the right chemical permits. The agency’s list of permits for industrial operations includes a Chemical Storage Permit and an Effluent Discharge Permit. Those statements were aimed at industrial operators, so whether a particular laundry needs a permit is a question for OGEPA and not something CAC registration answers. One 2024 OGEPA notice about factory closures also listed failure to disclose business names among its grounds, which is a reminder that the agency expects to know who is behind a premises. A registered name is the starting point for dealing with it.

Clean Clothes, Settled Homes, and One Less Form to Chase
Your trade is measured in small things done right: a shirt returned without a scorch mark, a bag of sheets back before the guests arrive, a nanny who turns up on time and gets on with the family. You already deal with the Monday pile-up, the generator that must stay fuelled, the detergent orders and the customer who swears she left a key in a pocket. Registration should not be one more thing on that list. Handing it to us means your business ends up with a recognised name that can appear on your receipts, your bank account and your agreements, while you keep the washing, pressing and placements moving.
You’ll Probably Like Working With Us If…
Before you decide, here’s an honest look at who gets the most from our service:
- You’d rather not decode CAC’s portal while the dryers are running, a delivery rider is waiting outside and Monday’s pile of uniforms is still unsorted — you want the paperwork done while the shop keeps turning.
- You’re aiming past a single shopfront — from one laundromat near a campus to pick-up routes, hostel and hotel linen contracts, or a placement agency supplying cleaners and nannies to homes across Abeokuta, Ota and Sagamu — and you want a registered name to grow under.
- You prefer being told what you actually need — if the Business Name does the job today, we’ll leave the company route for when it’s worth it.
- You want a process without back-and-forth — send your details once, pay once, and there are no surprise charges afterwards.
If this describes you, we’d be glad to take the paperwork off your hands.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC registration cost for a laundry or cleaning business in Ogun State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, identical wherever in Ogun State you operate. A Limited Liability Company is ₦65,500 all-inclusive.
What do I get for the ₦35,500? The name search and reservation, the completed CAC application, the government filing fee, your Certificate of Registration (soft copy), a TIN and a CAC Status Report.
How long does it take? Typically 5–7 working days from the point your details and payment are in.
Is a Business Name enough for a laundromat or dry-cleaning shop? For most owner-run shops, yes. It gives you the registered name you need to trade, invoice and open a bank account. Environmental and premises approvals are separate matters.
Can I register a domestic staff, nanny or house-help agency the same way? Yes, the registration process is the same. Any rules specific to placement agencies are handled separately, so check the current requirements before you begin placing people with families.
Does CAC registration replace permits from OGEPA? No. Environmental permits come from the Ogun State Environmental Protection Agency and are separate from CAC registration. Your registered business name is what you apply under.
Does a small laundry need an effluent discharge permit? That depends on your size and how you discharge wastewater, and OGEPA is the right body to answer it. Its published statements on effluent and chemical permits have mostly been aimed at industrial operators, so ask the agency about your own premises.
I run pick-up and delivery with no shop. Can I still register? Yes. You need a business address in Ogun State and its LGA for the application, which can be your home or workspace. If you are still arranging a base, send the address you plan to use.
Do you register businesses outside Abeokuta and Sagamu? Yes. We register businesses in every local government area of Ogun State, from Ilaro and Ijebu Ode to Ota and Imeko Afon.
Is the price different in border towns like Idiroko? No. The price, requirements and turnaround stay the same across the whole state.
Will a CAC certificate help me win contracts with hostels, hotels or schools? Institutions often want proof of registration before they arrange regular cleaning or linen services, so the certificate is a useful document to hold. It doesn’t guarantee any contract.
Can I open a business bank account with the certificate? Yes. A CAC certificate is one of the main documents banks ask for when opening a business account, alongside your ID and other details.
Is the TIN included? Yes. A Tax Identification Number is part of what you receive for the ₦35,500.
How do I receive my certificate, and can I get a printed copy? Your documents come to you as soft copies on WhatsApp. You print them locally whenever you like.
Do I have to file anything with CAC in later years? Registered businesses have annual returns to file. It is a small separate step, and we can help with it when the time comes.
What if my first-choice business name is taken? We check the two names you submit in the order you rank them. If neither is available, we’ll ask you for another.
Can I upgrade from a Business Name to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes. Many owners begin with a Business Name and convert as the team grows or partners come in, and we can assist with the conversion.
When does a Limited Liability Company make sense from day one? When you plan a large multi-branch operation, will share ownership with partners, or an investor or major client requires a company structure.
