Laundry....

Do you wait until it piles up and do 6 loads or do you do a little every few days?

I am just getting used to this taking care of house and doing laundry thing...first time in years I have a washer and dryer in my home!

Re: Laundry....

if i had it in my house i would prob do it every 3 days but since i have to go to a place once a week

Re: Laundry....

We wait until it piles up and do it all at once, since we have to take it down to the laundromat in our apt complex.

If I had my way - I would do a few loads every week instead of having to do 20 loads every three weeks, but I can never get DH to help me that often!

BTW - this is what we will be doing tonight - lugging bags and bags of laundry to wash them!

Re: Laundry....

I do laundry every 6-8 days.

Re: Laundry....

i do it every sunday, no matter how big or small.

Re: Laundry....

We do laundy every week, usually Sunday is our laundry day.

Re: Laundry....

I usually do laundry on the weekend - either three loads in one day if it's just clothes (my works clothes, a bleach load and an everything else load) or split it over two days if I'm also doing sheets/towels/blankets.

Re: Laundry....

i hate laundry period. I don't care whether or not the machines are ten steps down the basement or not...it still pile up.

Re: Laundry....

I pretty much do laundry once, maybe twice a month. I have enough clothing to last that long.

Re: Laundry....

depends on how hectic my week. I'm a late night laundry kind of gal. I start at like 10PM and go steady till 12M.

Re: Laundry....

We do 4 loads a week. Whites, lights, darks, towels!

Re: Laundry....

Re: Laundry....

once a week. we don't have it in our apt.

Re: Laundry....

I try to do it twice a week, so I don't have to spend hours and hours doing it when it piles up. I try to do sheets & towels one day, and clothes the other.

Re: Laundry....

Sunday is usually our stay home day. Meaning we have a few hours in the morning to stay home, clean up, do laundry.

Very rarely will I do a load during the week. Only if DH or I needs something specific.

Re: Laundry....

I wait until we're low on something like work clothes or white socks then I do that load after work....otherwise I'll do about 2 or 3 loads on the weekend all at once. I usually do laundry every week...I used to be able to go every few weeks but now doing laundry for two people it's way more frequent

Re: Laundry....

I do laundry morning, noon and night. Folding and putting it all away is another story.

Re: Laundry....

I usually wait until I have a few loads, but with 2 kids, I seem to be throwing something in at least every day.

Re: Laundry....

I/We do laundry a few times a week...I don't like letting it pile up.....

Re: Laundry....

We do it as we need to...maybe 3-5 loads during the week and sheets on Sunday.

Re: Laundry....

My DH does all our laundry, he does a little when he gets home from work, and all of it on the weekends. I fold it all.

Re: Laundry....

I'm in a building so I try to do it every week. But when a week gets hectic, it builds up and I regret it b/c I have to haul it. Did I mention I have 58 stairs to climb?

If I had my own machiine, I'd do a load every few days.

Re: Laundry....

Re: Laundry....

We let it pile up for like 2 weeks and have 10 loads to do! I am so bad at housekeeping!

Re: Laundry....

Usually every other day so I am not bombarded on the weekends.
We have 4 in our house.
