Manager of the store, Liaqat Ali, had the £40,000 kit installed on Wednesday evening, which has received mixed reviews.
Francois de Freitas, head of marketing for Photo-Me, the parent company of the laundrette manufacturer KIS Wash Solutions, said: "We are trying to provide a useful and important service to the community.
"We want to give tokens out to people for a limited time so they can try out the washing machines for free."
A Rossendale council spokesman said: "The council’s Planning Enforcement section has been made aware of the outdoor laundrette in Haslingden, and is currently investigating the matter."
