not to have ironed them

I have had a massive clear out of my clothes and the children's clothes and have donated 4 black bin bags of clothes to a local charity shop, they are all as new and I could have sold them on ebay.
Now I have donated them, I am wondering - was I unreasonable not to have ironed them all? They were all freshly washed with good detergent and fabric conditioner but I didn't have time to iron them - the alternative would have been to pass them on to acquaintances or bin them.

They'd have got creased in the bags anyway.
Good of you to donate them.

I work in a charity shop, and we steam the clothes. We'd be very grateful that they were clean and fresh. Grin

you should have washed them, ironed them, put each item on a hanger and sealed each one separately hermetically with plastic, then labelled each one

why were you so lazy as to not do those things OP

Think I'll give the steam cleaning and labelling a miss!!! Thanks everybody.
