I have mine upstairs in bedroom (no room in bathroom). Just curious really where other people keep theirs.

Next to the washing machine when I am doing loads, in the bathroom otherwise.

In the kitchen! this upset my professional de-cluttering lady no end.

SilveryMoon · 30/08/2011 20:18

I have one in the bathroom and one in my bedroom

JentlyDoesIt · 30/08/2011 20:20

On the landing so it's chucking distance from all the bedrooms Grin

beckybrastraps · 30/08/2011 20:22

Landing.

Empusa · 30/08/2011 20:22

Bedroom, seeing as that's where we usually get undressed.

reelingintheyears · 30/08/2011 20:23

In the bathroom.
DS keeps his on his bedroom floor.

WhatFreshHellIsThis · 30/08/2011 20:23

One on kids' landing, one in our bedroom, main one that everything gets cleared down into in front hallway. I spend a lot of my life carting washing up and down stairs.

Seona1973 · 30/08/2011 20:24

We have a big one in our bedroom for our clothes and a smaller one in the kitchen for the kids clothes

OberonTheHopeful · 30/08/2011 22:31

One in the bedroom, one in the bathroom (for towels)

EttiKetti · 30/08/2011 22:49

3 in utility room...whites, darks, towels/facecloths

WipsGlitter · 30/08/2011 22:50

In my dressing room! Get me!!

Flisspaps · 30/08/2011 22:51

One in the bathroom, one in the utility (for dishcloths, bibs etc)

upahill · 30/08/2011 22:52

i have a laundry bin in the bathroom.

Seeing that it is usually the first place people go to in the morning and the last at night it makes sense to be there.

Grockle · 30/08/2011 22:54

In DS's room. It's a wooden one with a seat on top. I need one for my room too

dixiechick1975 · 30/08/2011 22:55

Ensuite bathroom (one laundry bin) I also sort it into piles on the bathroom floor when I am doing some washing and then carry it down one load at a time - so no piles of laundry in the kitchen.

pissedrightoff · 30/08/2011 22:56

I have it hidden in the hallway cupboard, It's this one

has made life a little bit easier.

biglips · 31/08/2011 11:43

On the landing. Its huge so its ok there

notcitrus · 31/08/2011 15:15

In our bedrooms. Ds's stuff gets chucked in the nearest one or in the machine or the retired nappy bucket under the kitchen table.
Once he and dn are old enough not to empty a laundry bin faster than it's filled, we'll have one on the landing.
Bathroom is 8x5' so no room for one.

chrisrobin · 31/08/2011 15:17

In the bedrooms, though the one in the DSs room is purely ornamental Hmm

Kestryn · 31/08/2011 15:18

Trofast on the landing with drawers for whites, delicates, darks and coloureds.
Just outside DD's door so she can throw her stuff in easily when she's undressing (in theory anyway).
