Dirty Laundry

Hi,

We just brought home our new 2012 Jayco X19H, we upgraded from our 2007 Fleetwood Williamsburg popup. I love having cabinets for dishes, food etc, and our two door fridge. I was wondering what others do with their dirty laundry. We are four campers, two adults and two teenage boy with two miniature poodles and I was wondering if anybody had any creative places for their laundry? I was thinking since I had all these cabinets now i would just use the space under one of the table benches. Any suggestions?

We have more room but have been in the same situation before. You will not like all your inside cabinets stuffed with dirty laundry real fast.
Depends on how long you trip will be. We wash at least once a week. Towels, underwear etc. We store things that are going home in laundry bags in the storage underneath or in the back of the truck. We pack light for the trip and wear outer clothes more than once.

Tip: Take quarters and laundry supplies.

Two mesh bags from Walmart. One is dark blue and the other white and you guessed it. DW has me put the whites in the white one and the colored clothes in the other. That way, when we hit the laundry, it's already sorted and ready to wash. We keep the bags in the tub/shower until laundry day.

Laundry basket in shower. We bring two for longer trips. It is nice when you get home.

We use a square laundry basket in the shower. One basket works for us for 5 days with two adults, 2 kids, and 1 dog. That same laundry basket is used to haul refrigerated items between the house and trailer. We have never taken a shower in our shower, so I removed the shower curtain and folded it up and put it away (just in case). This makes the bathroom feel a whole lot bigger.

We are taking our HTT out for the first time this weekend and I didn't even think about dirty clothes. Looking at the space and how we are storing things, I am thinking we will put then under the dinette. At least for this trip, as we are going to be using the showers to test everything out.

We use the shower to store it on the way home. Seems a little strange to suggest you take the dirty out of the shower and use it.

We have an over the door hook holding a laundry bag in the bathroom. We use our shower to transport our precious fishing poles and alcohol.

well we are odd, we put our fresh bedding in a cabnet and our clothing in the shower, then when we get set up the bedding comes out to the beds and we use a mesh hamper in the cabnet where the bedding was. if the cabnet fills up then time to do the laundry.

We have no cabinet space free and we use our shower for showers (one of the main reasons I got an RV with full bathroom so I don't have to use the park facilities) so we have our laundry basket, along with all our clothes in backpacks etc. on the second bed. It is only my wife and I so that bed is not used otherwise. Because of this untidiness on the second bed we need a wardrobe and that may be the main reason for an RV upgrade as soon as we can afford it.

Ditto on the shower. We have a very large pop up mesh hamper that we use. It's perfect for a family of 5 for 3 days. We use the same hamper with lawn bags to use as our trash can outside. When we don't use it, the hamper folds flat and it's out of the way.

Small laundry basket for us, and in the shower it stays. The couple of times we used that stupid little shower we just took the basket out.
